Credor Kuon

Description

• Porcelain perfection

The Credor Kuon GCLX999 embodies the purest vision of contemporary Japanese watchmaking, a timepiece where silence, precision, and beauty merge in near-spiritual harmony. Crafted in the Shiojiri workshops, it reflects Credor’s philosophy of time as an art form, where every detail is conceived as a study in balance and mastery. Exclusively produced for the Japanese domestic market (JDM), the Credor Kuon GCLX999 was never officially distributed outside Japan. Finding one in Europe is therefore a rarity, adding to the aura of discretion and exclusivity that surrounds this watch.

The stainless steel case, polished using the Zaratsu technique, measures 39 mm in diameter and 10.8 mm in thickness. Its distortion-free mirror surfaces and subtly curved flanks capture the light with absolute purity. The result exudes quiet elegance in the most Japanese sense, where restraint becomes the ultimate form of luxury. The sapphire caseback reveals a decorative motif inspired by the gentle flow of a stream, symbolizing the serene passage of time.

The porcelain dial, created through a unique artisanal process, displays a pristine, slightly domed surface. Blue baton indexes and heat-blued hands bring a touch of refined contrast. This minimalist execution, devoid of any visible complications, is defined by its symmetry and the calming sense of balance it conveys. The power reserve indicator is placed on the back of the movement to preserve the purity of the dial.

Inside beats the hand-wound Spring Drive calibre 7R31, developed exclusively for Credor. This exceptional movement combines the mechanical energy of a mainspring with the precision of an electromagnetic regulator, maintaining an average deviation of around ±1 second per day. It provides a 72-hour power reserve thanks to its twin barrels. The finishing, visible through the sapphire back, is executed entirely by hand: polished bevels, blued screws, and bridges engraved with a flowing-water motif.

The integrated stainless steel bracelet, composed of seven finely articulated links, continues the natural lines of the case. Its triple-fold clasp with push-buttons ensures comfort and security while maintaining the watch’s fluid aesthetic coherence.

This 2025 Credor Kuon GCLX999 is offered in excellent condition and comes with its full original set. A true connoisseur’s watch, it speaks to those who view horology not as mere mechanics but as a form of art, an expression of time that invites contemplation. A creation of rare purity, where Japanese perfection reveals itself in its most silent and essential form.
