CIGA Design J Series consists of three layers which can be interpreted in many ways, each one making us feel at peace and with greater purpose through the course of time.
One possible interpretation parallels the layers with levels of consciousness. The solid outer layer represents all that is present in our physical reality. The semi-transparent middle layer represents the inner world of the mind and subconscious – where our thoughts, feelings, and identity exist. The fully transparent center layer represents the essential core of existence - all that we are and our ever-present connection to the universe.
The hollow inner layer bears witness to the incredible mechanisms within the timepiece, further guiding us to embrace and feel at one with the passage of time.
The term Karesansui means ‘Dry Landscape' or ‘Dry Mountains and Water'. In a Zen garden, Water is represented by sand, and Mountains are represented by stone. Karesansui is often used by Japanese monks to aid in meditation, as these still elements are believed to have a calming effect which allows for separation from distractions in order to focus one's energy.

The packaging for The CIGA Design J Series Mechanical Watch has been awarded in the Red Dot Award. The packing is a miniature of the Zen culture, unique design, and the amalgamation of culture. It has the same design philosophy as the product it contains which represents three levels of Zen awareness.
