Yuto Horigome
Born on January 7, 1999, in Tokyo, Japan, Yuto Horigome, influenced by his father’s legacy, started skateboarding at the age of six.
He has been skating vert ramps since he was a child, and from his early teens has been in the top ranks of domestic competitions held in Japan.
After graduating from high school, Horigome moved to the U.S., where his talent blossomed further. Within a year of his 2017 debut in Street League Skateboarding (SLS), the world’s top skateboarding competition series, he won first place in three 2018 SLS stops and became one of the top skateboarders in the world. In 2024, he continued to make Japanese skateboarding history with his second victory at a major international sporting event.
A limited-edition model made with Yuto Horigome
“I created this model by combining a family crest logo that represents me with a vintage style of design that reflects what I like to wear. When I am overseas, I often work alone, but when I wear something with my logo on it, I feel as if I am skateboarding and fighting alongside my family, friends, and everyone else, and I realize that I am not alone. I put that encouragement into the family crest logo and chose it for this model.”
The dial’s depth is expressed through the combination of a gradation and a delicate pressed pattern. An original logo based on Horigome's “hawk-feather” family crest appears at the 6 o’clock position. The special dial design is unique to the collaboration with Horigome.
The gradation dial, crocodile pattern strap, and thick, legibility-enhancing hour and minute hands combine to create a vintage-style design that Horigome enjoys.
The watch is offered as a limited edition with Horigome’s family crest logo on the glass case back, alongside the words "LIMITED EDITION" and the serial number.
There is also the logo on the special box.
