  • 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.
