Stunning Boldr Pokemon watch ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Damn I love the colors. ๐Ÿ˜

There's also 3 others that I didn't like as much color wise. Pikachu and the other two starters.

..Which is a shame because Bulbasaur is crap. Lol

600 bucks. Which is more than I'd spend personally - unless the watch was absolutely perfect for my uses and I knew I'd wear it for decades.

And it's not titanium which is what I look for nowadays for comfort.

Still I'm jealous of whoever gets one of these. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

I already have a pack of ultra tiny Pikachu stickers waiting for a watch that will fit one nicely on the dial.

Because I doubt I'll ever find a Pokemon watch I love enough to spend the kind of money these kinds of collabs ask for.

Love these watches, and the brand, made a post about them when they first launched. I'm going to be in Hong Kong this September (one of only 3 places you can actually buy these) and would love one but unfortunately the drop finishes well before I fly out ๐Ÿ˜” shame, I absolutely love the watches, the entire range are quite attractive really. Are you measuring 600 bucks as US$? Because the price to buy them from HK is HK$3600, which comes to US$460, which isn't so bad.

Why did they make the decision to go with blue and pink for a bulbasaur watch?

There was a recent watermelon themed watch very similar to this that people seemed to really like. I don't remember the brand name. My guess is they took inspiration from that.

I'm not sure. When I visit the site it says 600. Maybe they think I'm in Canada or something?

Nah it's in Singapore dollars, the site only lets you see the products if your location is down as Singapore, Hong Kong, or Thailand. If you're viewing from abroad it defaults to Singapore dollar.

Studio Underd0g, the brand owner is on here I think

They used Venusaur's colours. There's also a picture of Venusaur on the caseback.

I wish they were a little more something. I rlly like the Swatch DBZ watches.

These are cute. I wanted to get one just because my son loves pokemon, but my wife shooed me away from the store...

Just found out on another post that Boldr is a Singapore company and I'm based here!

Oh ok that makes more sense, then. I was thinking green would be an obvious choice for Bulbasaur, but I didn't realize it was not limited to that.

It appears you can only purchase these pokemon models if the delivery address is in either Singapore HK or Thailand. Licensing issue.

Is there any way to get this to the USA that isn't sketchy?

It's a pretty reputable brand. I'd get it directly from them. I've not had issues with DHL so I often choose that if it's an option. Otherwise you can set up a search alert on eBay to get emails when people post new items that match your search and wait to see if one comes up.
