- Two colors of the dial that express the color and transparency of the cocktails that flicker in the glass
Inspired by Mr. Kishi’s original “Illumine” cocktail, SARY221 (top) expresses the white light that shines in the illuminated Tokyo Station building with light gold on the dial.

You can see the beautiful rubies set in the movement and the movement of the gears unique to the mechanical system. The dynamism of the balance wheel that can be glimpsed through the dial evokes the euphoria of Tokyo, where the old and the new coexist and the heartbeat that rises.
