Today, we bring you the second episode from HODINKEE Japan, featuring Naoya Hida. Before jumping into the world of watches, Hida was active as a professional modeler creating original cast models for garage kits. In the 1990s, Hida started his career in sales and marketing for watch brands including Eterna, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Vacheron Constantin, and Breguet. He was also behind the launch of F.P. Journe and Ralph Lauren Watch & Jewelry in the Japanese market.
Virtually everyone in the Japanese watch industry knows Hida, and he finally launched his own brand to create his ideal watches. We have featured the brand’s debut piece NH Type 1B (on HODINKEE Japan) and this year’s brand new NH Type 2A. I must admit, we expected a somewhat dress-centric collection before meeting him, but his personal lineup turned out to be quite diverse. Let’s look into them.
