Official description

Arita, a small town in Kyushu, the third largest island in the southwest of Japan, came to prominence in the early 17th century when clay suitable for porcelain manufacture was discovered there and its porcelain products soon became highly prized in Japan for the high quality of their artistry.

The Arita Porcelain dial reflects the care and craftsmanship for which Presage is renowned. The slender dial is approximately 1mm in height and curves downwards from the indexes to the dial center to create a soft form with depth. 

Under the supervision of Arita porcelain craftsman, Hiroyuki Hashiguchi, this slim yet dimensional dial was achieved by challenging the limits of traditional Arita porcelain casting molding processes. The unique quality of the porcelain surface finished with glaze gives the dial a glossy luster and soft shade.
