Another visual difference with this watch from the original Kodo is the link white strap, which is exclusive to this model. It is link a white leather created from a highly durable material and treated in the traditional methods once used for Samurai armor. Of course, it goes deeper than that as the specific white color used for this strap was specifically created for the Kodo using link white-urushi lacquer. In addition, the watch also comes with a charcoal grey strap.
