Tomiya Euro Salon in Kita-ku, Okayama City now carries Blancpain watches

 Tomiya Corporation is an authorized watch retailer with stores mainly in Okayama City. It operates a total of 14 stores, including the Time Art store, which carries high-end brands, and the Mecha Museum store, which carries not only watches but also jewelry and leather goods. One of these, the Euro Salon store, has recently begun stocking Blancpain. Located in the Omotemachi shopping arcade in Okayama City's Kita Ward, the Euro Salon store primarily stocks luxury brands such as Cartier, Breguet, and Chopard, and offers a diverse lineup ranging from classic models to new releases and limited editions.

 Founded in 1735, Blancpain is a prestigious Swiss manufacture with a long history and advanced technical capabilities. In 1953, it released the Fifty Fathoms, a watch with high water resistance, visibility, anti-magnetic properties, and a rotating bezel with a locking mechanism, creating the prototype for the modern diver's watch. Even when the Swiss watch industry was hit hard by the quartz revolution in the 70s, the company continued to produce mechanical watches, and in the 80s it produced watches equipped with complex mechanisms such as complete calendars, moon phases, minute repeaters, and flying tourbillons.


The Villeret Extra Slim combines midnight blue and red gold

 The Villeret collection is named after the village of Villeret in the Swiss Jura region, where the company was founded. Carrying on the company's tradition, this collection features a classic, orthodox design. Tomiya Euro Salon's recommended watch is the Villeret Extra Slim, which was added in 2020 and features a midnight blue dial. The double-step bezel, unique Roman numerals, and sage leaf-shaped hour and minute hands are characteristic of the Villeret collection. The sunburst-finished midnight blue dial contrasts beautifully with the red gold case, indexes, and hour, minute, and second hands.
