(Translated from Japanese)

In this detailed video review, Japanese watch content creator Watch-Mix shares his honest impressions of our very first Deco Ibarra release: the Gran Luz.

From the moment he handled the prototype, he was struck by its unique identity—neither Swiss nor Japanese, but something quietly exotic and elegant, with a subtle charm that grows on you the longer you wear it.

It feels like traveling through an unfamiliar country. At first, it’s bewildering—but it lingers in your heart afterward.– Watch-Mix

He dives into the Art Deco geometry of the dial, the sun hour markers, and the white mother-of-pearl accents. The use of dauphine hands and a sapphire domed crystal contribute to a refined vintage feel without ever feeling outdated.

Watch-Mix also explores the thoughtful choice of the Miyota 9039 movement, praising its high-beat (28,800bph)performance, slim profile, and the absence of a date window—all contributing to the balance and symmetry of the watch.

One of the most praised details? The expansion bracelet, inspired by traditional banig weaving, combined with the engraved Moreno Watch Studio kamon mark, symbolizing the collaboration between Tokyo and Manila.

"It doesn’t try to stand out—but the more you wear it, the more it stays with you. That’s the charm of this watch."

We invite you to watch the full video below and discover why Gran Luz was designed not just to tell time—but to carry a story across cultures.
