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.

Finally, lot 226 finished out the Hodinkee LEs in style with the MB&F LM101 Limited Edition in stainless steel. With only ten examples having ever been produced, the LM101 was one of the first HODINKEE LEs, and this example sold to a bidder in Hong Kong for CHF 94,500 over a high estimate link of CHF 40,000 and an original retail price of $52,000.
