Kikuchi Nakagawa / Ichimonji

Kikuchi Nakagawa Ichimonji

Collection profile · 2020

Kikuchi Nakagawa’s restrained dress-watch line, built around the brand’s signature monochrome finishing, a compact classical case, and highly disciplined dial and hand details that sit between vintage inspiration and modern Japanese independent craftsmanship.

Why it matters

Ichimonji is one of the brand’s defining core references: it crystallizes Kikuchi Nakagawa’s design language into a compact, highly finished dress-watch format and remains central to how collectors identify the maison.
