### Cultural Significance

- **Living heritage**: Edo period techniques in the 21st century

- **Cultural fusion**: Swiss-Japanese watchmaking with traditional ceramic art

### Comparison with Swiss Made

While a Swiss watch with a grand feu enamel dial costs £18,000+, this Presage offers:

- Comparable craftsmanship at a fraction of the price

- Similar exclusivity (limited production)

- Deeper cultural history (400 years vs 200)

- In-house movement

### Who is this watch for?

**The enlightened collector who:**

- Values craftsmanship over brand

- Seeks pieces with history and meaning

- Appreciates the unique and irreplaceable

- Understands that true luxury is culture

- Prefers conversation over ostentation

### Special Care

Arita porcelain is durable but requires consideration:

- Avoid direct strong impacts

- Natural patina improves with age

- Micro-variations are part of the charm

- More resistant than traditional enamel

**A museum piece you can wear every day**: The perfect paradox of the SARX127. It's not just a watch, it's functional Japanese art, portable history, and probably the only Arita porcelain most people will ever see outside a museum.
