Naoto Fukasawa is a design star in Japan, he has created many desigs for emblematic brands such as B&B Italia, Driade, Magis, Artemide or Danese. He is also the co-founder of Plus or Minus Zero, a japanese design editor. For Issey Miyake, he has created the Big Twelve, Twelve that you can discover here in its polished steel version.
A pure line with no concession, typical of Fukasawa‘s style. A circle case and a surface where appears as a simple dodecagon where each separation signifies an hour. The display is wide white with only 2 black hands and the Issey Miyake logo on one hand.
The case has a Ø38mm and an atypical thickness of 9,8mm. This gives a very personnal and unique watch.

Issey Miyake is the emblematic Japanese Fashion designer. With his minimalistic and sculptural style, he is in the “less is more” stream. We also find in his Timepieces collection the Zen spirit within his Haute Couture collections. The talentuous designers that work for Issey Miyake bring their own sensibly but have mixed with the strong identity of the brand and its style.
