Timex x The MET Kunisada
This bold rendition of our Modern Easy Reader® features a captivating detail from The Actor Nakamura Fukusuke I as Asahina Tōbei, a woodblock print created in 1854 by the revered Edo-period artist Utagawa Kunisada (Japanese, 1786–1864). The print depicts the Kabuki actor in character as a hero of The Water Margin, a classic Chinese tale of military valor. The artwork continues down the leather strap, while a sleek, black case creates a subtle yet sophisticated frame for the striking portrait on the dial. Equipped with a quartz movement for superior timekeeping and a scratch-resistant mineral glass for a crystal-clear view of Kunisada’s image, this watch transforms a Met collection masterpiece into a timeless work of wearable art.
