The first ever crossover "Ashoka" watch series between AXIS and ByLeona is an excellent showcase of artistically merging traditional culture with innovative designs and technology. The series integrated with the ceramic and unique pattern printing technology, a breakthrough! The design was inspired by the love of ancient Oriental art and culture, and it could be seen as a contemporary interpretation of East meets West design concept which tells stories from the past and connect audiences to the deep Oriental heritage. The octagonal bezel is used to imply auspiciousness with five different pattern designs and each pattern has different meaningful blessing messages, such as the straight and unchanging characteristics of the feather arrow pattern symbolize determination and the desire to pray for happiness, while the bow and arrow represent the fight against evil and are also regarded as lucky charms for Japanese shrines, and the Asaba pattern symbolizes growth, resistance/recovery and prosperity.
