elshan at least make effort.
brass case, at least miyota movement, got lume.
so many straps and got watch roll
$240.

so much more satki.

this one just go taobao click buy 100 pieces. with extra strap and box
and laser engraved.

$119

agree...i like to support local business but sometimes common sense kicks in and seriously, SGD119 for this?

i'll like to know how much profit they are making per watch, i read and read and cant justify any parts that justifies $19, much less $119

very soon these watches will be flooding instagrams :s22:

So true. Too bad the masses get suckered into the "minimalist" bulls**t too much. This 1 just sell based on packaging and straps nia. The watch itself is more like an accessory in the whole package, rather than the way around. :s22:

End of the day, they still laugh their way to the bank though...

Cos it works mar. I dunno see how many people wearing DW... Even seen people purposely wear it in such a way that the watch is shown. :s22: But it's their choice la. Ignorance is bliss.

Ventus Mori is Seiko NH35 though right?

But yes, many straps and watch roll.

ya you need to come up with some interview answers that tugs at the sympathy strings of people, say how you struggle and determined to make your kickstarter a success,...

dont forget the boxes...make sure its made of cheap materials but yet instagrammable..avoid reflective materials/colors for it reflects light and make it hard to photograph :o

maybe 20% spoil, keep 1 side. use as service replacement parts if needed.
the rest 160 flip

even give it a 1 year warranty, chances of it screwing up is very slim.
