This watch is very cool, Studio Underdog had been on my radar since the Watermelon bi-compax. But this dial is awesome, a big part of that awesomeness is the sandwich dial where the upper layer is clear with the numbers and right below it is a disk of pure lume! It's going to look great in low light.
They're kind of interesting but it's not on my radar as far as a purchase. I tried one on recently and they're different and the colors are fresh. Not my style though.
I believe it is holding the additional sapphire crystalnover the luminous base.
Seems to give the dial depth and the appearance of things floating. YMMV.
In fact, I saw the designer discuss the screws. They were an inevitability! It was his only solution, so it was made into a feature. I like it, but yes, it’s divisive.
I appreciate the overall design and get the functionality part of screws on the dial but can't get pass the design. If they would be made like hour markers or something fine but not like this

Good point, those screws are annoying me
Having seen these in person, I can agree that they are really lovely.
You get over the two screws very quickly when you see what they do to add dimension to the rest of the watch. It is quite stunning in person.

At least the screws are aligned, unlike Cartier and AP 🤣

Thanks for that, now I’m looking at the photo and they don’t look parallel to the strap ends. Never realized I had OCD 🤦🏻♂️

I have seen other brands do it without the screws kind of seems like a cheap pit way to do it. Couldn’t have been the most graceful way possible
Not a SU fan - just doesn’t do it for me from design aesthetics
My list also needs a large lottery win.

You've just missed the purchase window.. they were open for orders for 8 hours last Sunday (UK time)..

Think the look they were going for was more tool-y hence the screws.
Plus it would be one more thing to cast shadow I guess?

Simple, but those hands set it off.

Ha! Yes, it was your post that really caught my eye! 😂 Thanks!
Loved their first watch, the playful watermelons and mint chocolate chips. This one, not so much. A bit too plain and uninspiring.
There is lovely depth to the dials of these field watches…recommended!
Not a super expensive watch. You'll be alright. Set goals and achieve them with patience.
One of them brands I just don't get the hype for. Really dislike the chronograph's.

It’s a fun watch. If you get a chance, worth seeing them in person. Each of the dials has its own charm.
Nah. It’s nice to look at and try on but nah

Fair enough!
I like this way better than the watermelon personally.
