Bokuchiku Japanese Watch Face

WabiFace Bokuchiku brings ink-painted bamboo to your Wear OS smartwatch.

🎋 BOKUCHIKU — INK BAMBOO
Bamboo in sumi ink is one of the oldest subjects of Japanese brush painting: straight culms, clean nodes, leaves that bend but do not break. This dial paints two culms rising up the left of a sheet of creased washi paper, their leaves reaching across the open paper, inside a thin gold rim. Twelve applied gold batons mark the hours, set exactly on the hour, with sixty fine ink minute marks around them.

🍃 A LEAF FALLS
Every eighteen seconds a single sumi bamboo leaf falls from the canopy and drifts down the dial, turning as it goes. It can be switched off.

🎋 HANDS CAST AS BAMBOO
The hands are cast in the shape of bamboo culms, nodes and all, in four metals: Aged brass, Blackened iron, Smoked silver, Shakudo. The seconds hand carries a small ring at its tail, and can be switched off.

📜 FOUR PAPERS
The washi comes in four tones: Kinari (unbleached), Shiro (bleached white), Sakura (blush), Fuji (wisteria grey). The ink and the gold stay as they are on every paper.

📅 DATE WINDOW
The day of the month sits in a small gold-framed window at twelve o'clock.

⌚ COMPLICATIONS
Three rings of washi and gold in an arc on the open paper:
- Steps (upper right)
- Battery (at three, with a ring that fills as the battery does)
- Day of the week (lower right)
The rings come in three sizes or can be switched off, and the text comes in four inks: Sumi black, Indigo, Pine green, Deep crimson.

🌙 AMBIENT MODE
Optimised for always-on display. The painting, the leaf and the complications go out; the twelve hour batons remain in pale gold with outlined hands.
