approximately 6 months until delivery). Price: 1,650,000 yen (tax included). The Last Store, whose theme is “Beauty of perishing, beauty of deviation,” not only sells vintage eyewear, but also new
tortoiseshell eyeglasses by DIWAN. Tibelius was born as the founders, the Okamoto brothers, and Mr. Poggy deepened their friendship. The Last Store creative team and Mr. Poggy were sitting around the same table enjoying a meal when Poggy noticed the eyewear one of the team members was wearing. The eyewear was a very rare piece, produced in a very small number in a French workshop in the 1960s by a famous Italian fashion designer. It was one of the glasses that the Okamoto brothers encountered shortly after they started collecting vintage eyewear, and it was one of the items that inspired them to pursue a global collecting career. And the one that became the design base for the 1980s ULTRA GOLIATH, which has a strong old-school hip-hop aesthetic that Mr. Poggy used to use. It is also a representative piece of eyewear history, the dawning era of designer eyewear, where handmade eyeglass making and couture aesthetics were combined. A spacey lightness inspired by aristocratic masculinity and the aerospace industry that dominated this era. This item, which incorporates the designer’s vivid aesthetic sense into eyewear, is truly “New Roots” for us. Based on this eyewear, which is the root of everyone involved in the collaboration, we reinterpreted it through the traditional Japanese tortoiseshell craft technique. Osawa Toriko, which is responsible for producing these glasses (limited to 5 pieces), is a long-established company with a workshop and store in Sendagi, Tokyo. We once provided dead stock genuine tortoiseshell glasses to Poggy’s Liquor, Woman & Tears brand. We are also a long-time partner of the Okamoto brothers in making genuine
tortoiseshell glasses. The Okamoto brothers’ passion for reviving Japanese tortoiseshell crafts, Mr. Poggy’s aesthetic sense, and the tradition of tortoiseshell crafts inherited by Osawa Tortoiseshell. These genuine tortoiseshell glasses were born from the many
intertwined edges.

Power reserve approximately 40 hours. Silver 925 (diameter 32 x 37 mm). 30m waterproof. Price: 132,000 yen (tax included). PEA106-PGY will be sold in a limited edition of 100 pieces as a collaboration between LAARVEE and Mr. Poggy. The watch is housed in a box made of cherry blossoms and, at his request, features the brand’s first case made of 925 silver. In Japan, it will be sold exclusively at KITH TOKYO in Tokyo, THE LAST STORE(TM) in Osaka, and LAARVEE’s online shop. The design unit LAARVEE was established in 2021 as a lifestyle label. The company’s founder, who has a career in mechanical engineering at companies such as ROLLS-ROYCE, ARUP, and BOSCH, releases playful watches. _____ Time that cannot be stopped or changed direction. I want you to live your life in a positive way by surrendering to the flow and observing the various movements happening around you. The unique aging of 925 silver allows you to enjoy this design concept even more visually.
