Let customers speak for us
from 286 reviewsI love everything about this watch!
My wife had a fantastic vacation in Kyoto 10 years ago, my 6 year old son loves the kanjis and helped me choose the dial color, and the watch always reminds me of his personality: Beautiful, precious and also a little wild & quirky.
The dial is absolutely spectacular, the light reflections of the kanjis look amazing and even the legibility is significantly better than shown on the official photos. I ordered the watch in the KNIS online shop and it arrived here in Berlin within a few days in perfect packaging.
サンレイ仕上げのシャンパンゴールドは大人感満載で、青い針がカジュアルな雰囲気を出してくれます。ダークブラウンのベルトは、どんなシーンにもマッチして、全ての組み合わせが完璧だと思います!前から気になってましたが、この度ふるさと納税を利用して購入しました。
Really quick shipping to germany! Love the calassic design and wearability.
Well I can't say enough about this watch, my watch maybe runs at about 5 second's plus a day, that's better than a Rolex which will run + or - 20 second's per day, the red dial is very good, a nice addition to my 30 plus watch collection so far, in the future I will be buying another KNIS watch, I am so pleased with my watch lot's of thanks W J Sweeney.
わずか40mm弱の直径の円の中に、無限に広がっていく星空を眺めているようです。華やかさがあり、その一方で落ち着きがある、とても上品な時計だと思います。価格以上、というか価格をはるかに越えたパフォーマンスを持った物ではないでしょうか。
漢字の彫り面に光が当たるとキラキラと煌めき、一つ一つの文字がスポットライトを浴びたように浮かび上がってくる。光の角度により変化する様子が面白い。
幅37mm、厚さ9mmのステンレスケースは完璧に研磨され、腕にぴったり。
リーフ型の針、ブルースチールの秒針も絶妙のバランス。
清楚で落ち着いた佇まいのうちに悠然と日本の時を刻む。
時計は美しくあって欲しい。個性が欲しい。持つ者に感動と誇りを感じさせて欲しい。
それらを叶えてくれた時計に出会えたことに大満足。
温かく応対してくださったスタッフの方にも感謝。お世話になりました。
Got aware of this brand through Mario Lenke, but wanted to purchase directly from KNIS.
Watch arrived within 3 days from Japan. Customs collected appr. 60 € to enter Germany.
The watch is pretty heavy and solid and sticks to the wrist like a second skin. I had to remove three links. The dial is more champagne than gold and the blue hands make it easy to read.
Good luck any further KNIS and Mario Lenke, as well !!! Hajime !!!
Great value watch with gorgeous green sun ray dial
青文字盤から白文字盤から緑文字盤
緑が綺麗でしかもGMT
前作も良かったですが、この緑文字盤は遥か昔高校入学祝いに買ってもらったセイコーの腕時計を思い出させてくれます。大事に使います!
Beautiful watch, fast service
ROLEXやCHANEL、TAG Heuerなどのオートマチックを日常的に使っていますが、もう少しフォーマルな時計を探していたところ『KNiS』と出会いました。
ベゼルのカラーやライスブレスなどが程好いレトロ感を醸し出し、OPの皮ストラップもきっと似合うと思います。全体的な作り込みが丁寧で高級感があります。最初は日常使いにと思い購入したのですが、コレクションの一つとして、ローテーションで長く大切に使わさせて頂きます。
日付のない三針でシンプルながら彫られた数字と青い秒針がアクセントになり、とても気に入りました。漢数字の文字盤を推されていると思いますが、私にはこちらのシンプルな方を選んでよかったと思います。
Absolutely love this watch. Beautiful polished case on a retro style military watch where its usually blasted. The dial is perfect and detailed. Size fits my wrist. Screw down crown and sapphire glass on a watch this price is amazing value. Plus ordered from united states on a Wednesday and received the watch on that Friday! I am extremely happy with this watch.
