ALIVE × JULIDY Rose-Motif Triangular Watch - 2019, Limited Edition (100 pieces)
JULIDY collaborated with ALIVE to create a watch marking its fourth anniversary. At first glance, there is no text explicitly announcing this milestone; instead, the eye is drawn to the large rose set within the gold-toned triangular case. The details of the collaboration—and the occasion it celebrates—are revealed only when you turn the watch over.

ALIVE’s signature triangular case shape serves as a frame for the rose illustration. The flower and leaves fill almost the entire dial; the composition remains uninterrupted by numerals or prominent hour markers. While slender gold-toned hands glide over the pattern, the small ALIVE signature at the bottom intentionally recedes into the background. The contrast between the gleaming gold-toned case and the black, genuine leather strap with a crocodile-skin texture keeps the rose at the visual center of the timepiece.
The case back features a special heart-shaped graphic incorporating the words "JULIDY" and "Fashion." The rose motif chosen by JULIDY for its layered symbolism thus transcends mere decoration to become the central emblem of the collaboration. While the "Designed in Tokyo" and "Assembled in China" inscriptions clearly indicate its manufacturing origins, the original ALIVE-branded buckle complementing the black leather strap maintains the design's cohesive aesthetic.
The watch was released for sale on July 21, 2019. According to records from the time, production was limited to just 100 units, and the retail price was set at 18,000 yen. There is no individual serial number for this specific unit on the case back; the limitation is defined by the model's total production run.
The watch is powered by a quartz movement. Here, the movement intentionally takes a back seat; the focus of this model is not on complications or technical showmanship, but rather on form and graphic design. When the triangular case, the large rose motif, and the index-free dial are considered together, the watch transforms from a classic timekeeping object into a small design piece worn on the wrist.
The watch comes with the black zippered carrying case shown in the photos.
Final Thoughts
The story of this ALIVE × JULIDY watch is split between its two sides: the instantly recognizable triangular case and rose on the front, and the JULIDY name and the year 2019 on the back. The limited production run of only 100 units elevates this extraordinary design beyond a mere collaboration product, turning it into a small collector's item that embodies a specific moment and aesthetic concept.
