The OLD SMITH 90-002 raised 13 million yen for its original crowdfunding launch and has remained a best seller to this day. This 38mm version maintains the same classic and rugged style of the original, but with a larger case size.
 
The OLD SMITH 90-002 is a classic field watch inspired by British military watches from the 1940s-1970s. The thick numerals and large hour/minute hands were designed with an emphasis on visibility and use orange-tinted luminescent paint (using Swiss Super-LumiNova®). The dial has an uneven satin finish to further emulate the dial designs of that time. The body of the watch (made of 316L Stainless Steel) is intentionally polished to add a bit of elegance to an otherwise rugged design.
 
Our OLD SMITH 90-002L comes with two nylon straps. These nylon straps have a supple texture and are usable for a wide range of situations. Unlike traditional leather straps, these nylon straps are perfect for hot, sweaty summer months.
Our brand KUOE was established in the historic Japanese city of Kyoto in 2020. This brand was founded with the vision of releasing modern watches that maintain classic designs. We want people from around the world to enjoy high-quality classic watches made in Japan.
