Thank you for pointing it out, I will ask my manufacturer to make sure it is!

Very good question!

I think I would like to start by playing a little bit more with this design, maybe do a metal strap version or other tints for the dial.

Secondly, I would very much love to do a take on the Cartier Santos type watch. I have and old one of those my self, which I really love. I feel it’s a very fitting typology for my monochrome architectural style, but with this go in a more thin and sharp/edgy direction than the first one.

If you mean my sketches for the watch I have posted some of them on my instagram, and will try to post more! :)

Exciting that you are also doing your own sketching, you shouldn’t worry about them not looking nice, they are only meant to be a quick way of making a note of your thought or idea.

I find it a great working method to use different styles, some very quick freehand, some more technical, large scale, with rulers and such, to work on detailing and then into 3D modeling, 3D printing etc.

As far as I can read up on, the 8215 is not hackable, but I might be wrong!

Thank you very much for your comments! And I think you got a very good eye, that gap was not intended and is something that I am planning on changing for the first full order, should the Kickstarter be successful.
