Japan · shipped from India · 24–48hr
Genuine, OEM and reconditioned marine engine spares delivered to Japan's main ports — Yokohama, Kobe, Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka — shipped from India, with 24–48hr emergency dispatch and 30–50% below OEM list. Sourced beside Alang, the world's largest ship-recycling yard — with deep coverage of Japanese-built engines.
Quick answer
Why do vessels calling Japan source spares from Wattmare in India? Because Alang — the world's largest ship-recycling yard, beside our Bhavnagar base — yields the deepest pool of genuine and reconditioned parts, including obsolete items for older Japanese-built tonnage, at 30–50% below OEM. We air-freight to Yokohama, Kobe, Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka in 24–48 hours, delivered to your vessel via its local agent or chandler — we have no office in Japan.
The smart source
For vessels calling Japan, India combines something no local source can match: the genuine-parts depth of Alang, a decades-deep reconditioning workforce, low-cost skilled labour, and especially strong coverage of Japanese-built engines — Mitsubishi UEC, licence-built MAN B&W, Daihatsu and Yanmar — all under one supplier.
The result is the same genuine, working-spec part, air-freighted to your Japanese call port faster and at 30–50% less than OEM list — including obsolete parts no OEM still stocks.

Genuine recovered parts plus obsolete and discontinued items no OEM still stocks — the deepest pool on earth, ideal for older Japanese-built tonnage.
Decades of ship-dismantling and refurbishment expertise, restoring parts to working spec at a fraction of new cost.
Direct from source, no multi-tier distributor markup — typically 30–50% below OEM list on equivalent parts.
24–48hr emergency dispatch from Indian gateways to Tokyo Narita/Haneda and Kansai (Osaka).
India sits on the East-West shipping route — established air and sea lanes straight to Japan's big-six ports.
Engines, turbochargers, auxiliaries, governors, separators and heat exchangers — sourced under one roof.

Figures are approximate operating ranges; exact pricing, lead time and routing depend on the part, quantity and destination.
India's biggest moat
Beside Bhavnagar, the Alang ship-recycling yard dismantles a large share of the world's end-of-life vessels — yielding genuine OEM-original parts recovered from decommissioned engines, plus obsolete items long out of production. On-site skilled labour reconditions them to working spec for a fraction of new-part cost. Wattmare's location beside Alang means the fastest sourcing of recovered and reconditioned parts in the world — including many Japanese-built engine spares — air-freighted straight to your vessel's Japanese call port.

Brands we supply

Mitsubishi UEC, licence-built MAN B&W, Daihatsu and Yanmar are especially well-stocked for the Japanese fleet — genuine, OEM-equivalent and reconditioned. Can't see your brand? Send the nameplate and we'll find it.
Three grades, one supplier
Genuine OEM-original: new parts from authorised supply channels for class-critical or warranty-sensitive needs. OEM-equivalent: quality-made parts to original spec where genuine is unavailable or cost-critical. Reconditioned: genuine parts recovered at Alang, refurbished to working specification and tested.
Which grade makes sense depends on budget, lead time and obsolescence. For older Japanese-built tonnage running Mitsubishi UEC, Daihatsu or Yanmar machinery, reconditioned typically saves 30–50%+ and is often the only route for obsolete parts no longer manufactured.



Reliable for Japan's fleet


Every recovered part is inspected and cleaned before any reconditioning begins.
Dimensional checks, machining and refurbishment to working specification.
Functional and pressure testing where applicable before a part is released.
Engine source and condition recorded so each part's history is documented.
Parts and documentation aligned to surveyor requirements where required — ClassNK (NK), Lloyd's, DNV, BV and ABS.
Inspection photos and condition reports supplied before shipment on request.

Importing to Japan, made simple
Spares are consigned Ship-Spares-in-Transit to the vessel via her appointed Japanese agent — not formally imported — so duty and paperwork stay minimal. Japan Customs applies Advance Filing Rules (AFR/JP24) requiring electronic cargo data before arrival, which your agent or chandler lodges. We prepare the full document set in India: commercial invoice, packing list, AWB or bill of lading and IMO-compliant packing.
Your choice of Incoterms (EXW, FOB, CIF, DAP). We coordinate the freight forwarder and air or sea freight; your Japanese agent clears the spares and delivers alongside the quay at Yokohama, Kobe, Tokyo, Nagoya or Osaka, or by launch boat at anchorage. We deliver to ship managers, chief engineers, chandlers and vessel agents across Japan.
Cheaper, not lower quality
Indian pricing is lower because of the source, not the quality. Genuine parts recovered at Alang cost a fraction of newly manufactured OEM; low-cost skilled reconditioning labour undercuts European/OEM workshop rates; buying direct removes multi-tier distributor markup; and competitive Indian freight keeps delivery costs down. It's the same genuine part to the same working spec — typically a 30–50% net saving delivered to Japan versus OEM list.
India to Japan
From Bhavnagar we air-freight to vessels calling Japan's big-six ports — Yokohama and Tokyo on Tokyo Bay, Kobe and Osaka on Osaka Bay / Hanshin, plus Nagoya and Kawasaki — with Chiba and Yokkaichi also served. The same India-out air lanes feed nearby South Korea and China, so vessels on a Far East rotation can be supplied port to port.

Where to source for Japan
| Source for a Japan call | Recovered-part depth | Obsolete access | Price | Lead time to Japan | Fit for Japanese engines |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| India (Wattmare) | Best — Alang yield | Deepest | Lowest (30–50% below OEM) | Fast (24–48hr air) | Strong — UEC, Daihatsu, Yanmar |
| Local Japan stock | Limited / costly | Low | Premium | Fast (in-country) | Good but pricey |
| OEM direct | New only | Often discontinued | Highest (list) | Long for legacy parts | Exact — if still made |
| China | Limited / variable | Low | Low–mid (new mfg.) | Mid | Variable |
| Singapore (hub) | Limited recovered source | Low | Premium | Fast (hub) | Re-export, often from India |
For genuine recovered and obsolete parts at the best price — with the deepest coverage of Japanese-built engines — India (Wattmare) leads for a vessel calling Japan.

The complete guide
Wattmare supplies marine spare parts to vessels calling Japan, shipped from India — we are an India-based supplier (Bhavnagar, beside the Alang ship-recycling yard), not a company with a Japanese office. We air-freight genuine, OEM and reconditioned spares to Japan's big-six ports — Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Osaka, Kobe and Kawasaki — with Yokohama and Kobe the two anchorages where ship spares are most commonly delivered. Because Japan runs a large fleet with a deep base of Japanese-built tonnage, the match between calling engines and our stock is unusually strong.
The reason sits on a single stretch of Gujarat coastline. Alang recycles a large share of global end-of-life tonnage, and every ship that arrives is a floating warehouse of genuine, OEM-built machinery — including many Japanese-built engines. Combined with low-cost skilled reconditioning labour, that gives buyers serving Japan genuine and reconditioned spares at 30–50% below OEM list, with 24–48hr air dispatch to Japanese ports. See our India sourcing hub for the full picture.
We deliver to all major Japanese ports. Yokohama (Tokyo Bay) and Kobe (Hanshin / Osaka Bay) are the most common spares-delivery points; we also serve Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Kawasaki, Chiba and Yokkaichi. Delivery is arranged through your nominated vessel agent or ship chandler — alongside the quay, or by launch boat to a ship at anchorage in Tokyo Bay or Osaka Bay.
Spares are normally consigned Ship Spares in Transit to the vessel via her local agent rather than formally imported, so duty and paperwork stay minimal. Japan Customs applies Advance Filing Rules (AFR/JP24) requiring electronic cargo data before arrival, which your agent or chandler lodges. Wattmare is the parts source; your agent handles the last mile alongside or by launch.
Genuine OEM-original parts are new from authorised channels — best for class-critical or warranty needs. OEM-equivalent parts are made to original specification to balance cost. Reconditioned parts are genuine parts recovered at Alang, then cleaned, machined and rebuilt to working spec and tested — near-new performance at a fraction of new price, ideal for budget-sensitive jobs on older Japanese-built engines.
When an engine model leaves production, genuine spares often only survive on decommissioned ships. Because vessels of every era arrive at Alang, India is frequently the only place a genuine legacy part — an older licence-built MAN B&W, a Mitsubishi UEC component, a Sulzer RND/RTA item or a discontinued Woodward governor — can still be found and reconditioned to working spec for a vessel calling Japan.
Main engines: MAN B&W (including units licence-built by Mitsui, Kobe Diesel and Hitachi Zosen), Mitsubishi UEC, Wärtsilä/WinGD and Sulzer. Turbochargers: MHI/MET, IHI, ABB, Napier and KBB. Auxiliaries: Daihatsu, Yanmar, Caterpillar, MAK and Bergen. Governors: Woodward. Separators and heat exchangers: Alfa Laval and GEA. If your make isn't listed, the nameplate is enough for us to source it.
The saving is structural. Recovered genuine parts cost far less than new manufacturing; reconditioning labour in India is low-cost; buying direct removes distributor markup; and competitive freight keeps landed cost down. The part is the same genuine, working-spec component — typically 30–50% below OEM list delivered to your Japanese call port. Faster emergency delivery also cuts off-hire within tight Japanese port windows, where the real cost lies.
Local Japanese stock is fast but premium; OEM direct is exact but costly and often discontinued for legacy parts; China offers new-manufacture volume but limited genuine recovered sourcing. For genuine recovered parts, obsolete availability and the best delivered price — with the deepest coverage of Japanese-built engines — India and Wattmare are the strongest single source. The same India-out air lanes also feed nearby South Korea and China for vessels on a Far East rotation.
FAQ
Yes. Wattmare supplies genuine OEM-original parts, OEM-equivalent parts, and genuine parts recovered from decommissioned vessels at Alang and reconditioned to working specification. Every part is inspected, and we provide photos, condition reports and test results before dispatch to your vessel calling Japan, so you know exactly what you are buying.
The saving comes from the source, not lower quality. Bhavnagar sits beside Alang, the world's largest ship-recycling yard, so genuine recovered parts cost a fraction of newly manufactured OEM, skilled reconditioning labour in India is low-cost, and buying direct removes distributor markup. The result is typically 30–50% below OEM list for the same working-spec part delivered to a Japanese port.
For emergencies we air-dispatch within 24–48 hours from Indian gateways to Tokyo Narita/Haneda or Kansai (Osaka), with delivery alongside soon after, subject to flights, customs clearance and your agent's handling. Standard air shipments take a few days; sea freight (LCL/FCL) for heavy or planned-maintenance orders typically runs around 14–21 days India to Japan.
We deliver to all major Japanese ports, with Yokohama (Tokyo Bay) and Kobe (Hanshin/Osaka Bay) the most common spares-delivery anchorages. We also serve vessels calling Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka and Kawasaki. Delivery is arranged through your nominated vessel agent or chandler, either alongside the quay or by launch boat at anchorage.
Usually not. Spares are normally consigned Ship-Spares-in-Transit to the vessel via her local agent rather than formally imported into Japan, so they move with a ship in international trade. This route keeps duty and paperwork minimal. We supply correctly classified documentation so your Japanese agent or customs broker can clear the shipment smoothly.
Spares are consigned Ship-Spares-in-Transit to the vessel via her appointed Japanese agent. Japan Customs applies Advance Filing Rules (AFR/JP24) requiring electronic cargo data before arrival, which your agent or chandler lodges. Because the parts are for a vessel in international trade, duty and paperwork stay minimal — Wattmare is the parts source and your agent handles the last mile alongside or by launch.
New (genuine/OEM) parts are unused; reconditioned parts are genuine parts recovered from decommissioned engines at Alang, then cleaned, machined and refurbished to working specification and tested. Reconditioned parts cost 30–50%+ less and are often the only option for obsolete or discontinued items no longer manufactured — common on older Japanese-built tonnage.
Yes. Because many vessels calling Japan run Japanese-built engines, we keep strong coverage of Mitsubishi UEC main engines, MAN B&W units licence-built by Japanese yards such as Mitsui, Kobe Diesel and Hitachi Zosen, and Daihatsu and Yanmar auxiliaries — plus MHI MET and IHI turbochargers — including obsolete and hard-to-find parts for older tonnage.
