This watch's face has been designed like the Edo Japanese clocks called Wadokei. Although these clocks didn't work the same way as their Western counterpart (the hours varied during the year according to the seasons) it has been adapted for a normal reading. The outer kanji (or Japanese characters) are the twelve Japaneze Zodiac symbols and the inner ones are the kanji numerals from four to nine. During the Edo Jidai, the combination of them showed the current hour.
