MANGA has become a world-famous word.
This wristwatch has a numeral dial designed in manga-style Chinese numerals.
It is more casual than this wristwatch with Kanji numeral design.
It is ideal not only for manga lovers, but also for those who are studying Japanese or have Japanese friends.
Let’s make yourself different with this one.
Did you know? Even in ancient times, these Kanji numerals weren’t used on clocks in Japan.
Kanji numerals existed in the past and still exist today. This is a fact based on historical records. However, there is no record of them ever being used on clocks.
During the Warring States and Edo periods featuring samurai and ninja that interest you, time was counted using Japan’s twelve zodiac signs. There were no gear-driven clocks. It was sundials or temple bells. It was quite rough. For example, what we still call noon (Shogo) today refers to 12 o’clock in the afternoon. This corresponds to the central hour of the Horse sign in the zodiac.

After the Meiji Restoration ended isolation and Western culture arrived, analog clocks became common. Their dials primarily used Roman numerals. As education levels rose and elementary school students learned to tell time using analog clocks in lower grades, the dials gradually switched to Arabic numerals, which they were learning in arithmetic.
The strict punctuality of train arrivals and departures might stem from the experience of learning to read clocks down to the minute.
