Part of The Citizen's prestigious Iconic Nature Collection, the AQ4100-22E ("Fukuyu" / 伏雪) captures the quiet majesty of winter through traditional Japanese ink-wash artistry (suibokuga). The design concept centers around a round window—a classic Japanese architectural motif representing enlightenment—framing a world of total tranquility as snow settles on the ground.
The defining highlight of this timepiece is its dial, crafted from authentic Tosa Washi Unryu paper. Embedded with exceptionally long plant fibers, the delicate texture evokes the image of a dragon soaring gracefully through misty clouds. This translucent handcrafted paper allows light to pass through to the underlying solar cells while bestowing each of the 250 pieces worldwide with a completely unique pattern of lyrical, ink-like shadows.
Underneath the paper dial sits Citizen's top-tier high-accuracy quartz movement, the Caliber A060, representing the pinnacle of light-powered horology:
