Recommended Posts

Interesting project here by a friend locally- great to see process of prototyping and getting a new watch brand up and running. Interesting non-derivative design and from first hand the prototype build quality is excellent. I had/ have no involvement here just a spectator! Link:

Locally? You Dublin based?

 

I backed it yesterday, thought it was interesting, and since KS projects based here - and particularly watch projects - are rare, reckoned it'd be rude to not get behind it. The 57mm lug to lug does concern me though. You had a hands on? Does it wear as long as it sounds?

yes dublin based. Wears very nicely and snug- good weight (feels like there is something there) but wears close to wrist (7.5" typical mine) and well balanced on

 

it wears very well imo and in no way large or cumbersome

Like the look, but backed off when I read this. Good looking watch though.

Good to know I'm not alone. The guys running the project offered for me to meet and check out the prototypes, might take them up on it.

 

Just noticed they've announced that Titanium is going to be an option to any backer for no extra cost, so maybe that might tempt some other members to back it as well.
