"Ohio", which has been more popular than before, has undergone a model change and is now available as a new model for 2019. The name "Ohio" is the U.S. state of Cleveland, where founder Webster Clay Ball built an accurate railroad clock. In other words, it means that it is a watch that embodies the company's philosophy = "precisely telling the time in any harsh environment".

Also noteworthy is the new entry "904L". It's a type of stainless steel, but if you search for this "904L watch" , it's a famous material used by that famous watch brand.

904L has excellent resistance to corrosion, rust, and acids, and is widely used in medical equipment, automotive parts, and marine fields. In places that are familiar to Japanese people, it seems that there are cases where it is used in some parts of pumps and pipes that draw hot springs from the source. In the first place, corrosion of stainless steel starts even with human sweat and sebum stains. Rust can also cause rough skin, which eventually leads to malfunctions inside the case and damage to the bracelet.

904L stainless steel, which naturally reduces corrosion while keeping it clean with user care, can be said to be an ideal material for watches.

"904L", which is suitable for exterior materials of tough ball watches, requires special technology for molding due to its high hardness, and not all manufacturers can handle it. It has excellent aging resistance and maintains a beautiful luster as it is polished. That's why it's more expensive than the "304" and "316L" that I've been using so far, but with this work, the ball watch has achieved a price range that is easy to purchase even for beginners of mechanical watches.

And using a special inner case, the anti-magnetism is equipped with "80,000 A/m".

Smartphones, headphones, computers, tablets, speakers, magnetic parts of handbags, IH cookers, refrigerators, AC adapters, etc.

If you bring your watch close to a magnetic object like this, the watch will go crazy, and it will continue to drift forever until you remove the magnetism. For example, if the watch is not magnetically resistant, problems will always occur, even if the watch is placed on top of the smartphone and the watch is leaning against the wall of the elevator. Therefore, when choosing a watch, it is also important to look at "magnetic resistance". The JIS standard stipulates that even if the phone is brought up to 1cm from the smartphone, if it has a magnetic resistance of 16,000A/m, it can maintain normal performance in most cases.

The so-called "80,000A/m" is a value that far exceeds that, and protects us from all kinds of magnetism in our daily lives.

There are very few brands with this level of anti-magnetism among other brands, and of course the price will be higher if anti-magnetism is added, so it is not diversified.

Ohio is available in 3 colors!
