Watch Designs I have been working on

Hi members of watch crunch, I have been working on this watch design for a while and wanted to get an opinion on the design from the seasoned watch enthusiasts in our community. If this does seem like a good design I want to eventually put it into production and start my own microbrand.

Specs:

  • Diameter: 39mm

  • Lug to Lug: 46mm

  • Total Thickness (Has exhibition case back): 9.65mm

  • Based on a Sellita SW-261-1M

Any and every advice is welcome and I would like to thank you all for your thoughts on this in advance.

Beautiful! It has Joel's watch from Last of us vibe except the Arabic numerals. Beautiful design!

Nice case but to my eye the minute and hour hands look very similar in terms of shape and size making it difficult to tell the time at a glance

Other then hands itself I would also work on the gap between strap and case. It seems too big IMO. Design is beautiful. โค

Love the case like what the guys said earlier the hands and the gap between the strap and case โ€ฆ would be a domed crystal or flat? Iโ€™m really drawn on the chapter rings or minute trackers kinda cool I feel thatโ€™s the draw of the watchโ€ฆ

ยท

Maybe make the subdial hand white too.

I agree with the other comments as well.

That aside, thats a great design.

Handsome, I like the scalloped/concave edge with the brushing. Flat sapphire or domed?

ยท

Very nice I see what they mean about the hand size, though I had no issues determining which was which personally.

I love the simple clean dial, and understand the design style choice that you made when designing it so. If you were to ever do another version I would love to see 12 3 6 9 numerals on the dial. But I'm a fan of this kind of thing so just my opinion. But yes very nice design.

ยท

Maltese cross at 45 degrees? VC want a wordโ€ฆ

ยท

Do you know yet what the dial finish is going to be, and at what price point you are planning to offer these watches? (Just curious ... )

ยท

Very interesting and unique dial. Well done!

ยท

Itโ€™s actually very nice but just for me I like to have a date. Also the band seems to be very far out on the lugs

ยท

Always glad to see a new microbrand

I was thinking if a flat sapphire so that the dial is the center of the piece, please let me know if you guys think that a domed would look much better
