DETAILS / こだわり
Every watch is crafted and hand-aged by me in Kyoto—one at a time, never in batches.
Vintage-inspired design, finished with quiet precision: brushing, aging, and small adjustments made by hand until it feels right.
Because the difference isn’t in loud claims—it’s in the details you notice over time.
INTEGRITY / うらない
I don’t do seasonal sales or discounts.
Each piece carries the time and attention it truly takes to make it, and I believe that should stay honest and consistent.
Rather than chasing short-term promotions, I focus on long-term trust—built through communication, craftsmanship, and responsibility.
PURPOSE / おもい
KATABAMI began in Amsterdam and continues in Kyoto, Japan.
My mission is to preserve what I love about Japanese craftsmanship—its restraint, its care, its respect for time—and share it with the world through watches.
Not just something to own, but something to live with: a small, lasting piece of Japan on your wrist.
