JIN had told us about it more than a month ago, and now official information comes out. It is designed by Art of War, and manufactured by ORIENT. Planned to be released around June/July, preorders will be accepted from April 8th (friday), 11:00am Japan time.
ORIENT is one of the leaders in the wristwatch market in Asia, that focuses on middle to high-quality products. The watch will be limited to 200 units, and will cost 71,400円 ($671.5). EDIT: According to recent information the price would be 65,000円 ($598).
There isn't a lot of information out about the design yet, save that the hands will have the shape of the Dragon Slayer, and that the Brand will show up instead of the classic emblem of the company (see pictures below).
I only have a poor scan of the picture available in the recently released YA, but I think I found out which existing model this will be based on: the King Master (from the Orient Star line). It'll mostly have the same specifications:
- Automatic clockwork system with a 21 Jewels movement (no battery, powered by the movement and vibrations of the wrist)
- 40 hours Power Reserve indicator
- Date and self-rotating World Time indicator (advertised as very simple to use)
- Dial crystal made of synthetic Sapphire Crystal with anti-reflective coating (highest scratch resistance)
- 24h Time display
- Convenient metallic bracelet
- Serial number (limited to 200)
- 1 year guarantee
- Possibly (I'm not sure) a manual rotating city-name indicator
As for the dimensions:
Weight: 140g
Inner dial diameter: 27mm
Outer dial diameter: 38mm
Thickness: 10mm
Bracelet width: 18mm
I don't know what material is it made of, either titanium or stainless steel. It comes in a high-quality wooden case.
Here are 2 pictures, a low quality one of the future Berserk wristwatch, and next to it, a shot of the King Master model.
A closer look at the King Master (special edition, so a little different):
Details:
The Brand should replace the classic ORIENT lion emblem.
The possible choice of serial number carving, and another ORIENT lion emblem at the back that could be replaced by a Berserk-specific emblem.
