Hi Watchsmith, Thanks for the message and support! I 'm currently working on some automatic rotor decoration for this watch, but I will also have some watches coming out with some handmade components in the not too distant future. Ill keep you updated!

Hi Velomax, thanks for your feedback, though it could have been a little less aggressive🥺. I hear what you are saying about so many micro-brands trying to sell similar products, but I actually feel that what I am offering is much different than what so many other brands out there offer(at least in terms of design). I know its not significant in terms of movement or complication, but I wanted to keep that part simple for now to highlight the manufacture process(3D printing) and concept.  Sure everyone on here has a number of watches that tell time,(one could even argue that watches are not a necessity at all in the age of cell phones) which is why a watch is now more about the story, the concept, and the maker. I'm happy to share as much of my story as you want to hear, but this particular watch is a starting off point for me as an independent watchmaker.  In watchmaking school I did hand-make a complicated watch(chronograph atop a Unitas 6497 base) which took me nearly 3 years(in my "free" time)to complete. You might ask why I don't just make those watches, and I am actually working towards that, but I need to build up some capital for the tools and time needed to make that happen. I have loved the idea behind and process of 3D printing since I first learned about it in 2008. Through this process you have the ability to create objects that cannot be made by "hand" including cnc etc. You have the possibilities of creating designs which never before were possible. This led to an intrigue in the relationship between this modern futuristic manufacturing process and the traditional watchmaking trade. It's like bringing the old and new together to move us into the future. Anyway, I understand that this design will not be for everyone(and I will have more designs to come). But I also hope that understanding the story and process will help build an appreciation for the watch itself. Thank you! (PS I am attaching an image of my chronograph for you.)

Thanks for the feedback Catskinner, I did have a few different designs for the bezel though I settled on this one as a more classic look. I will have other options in the future. I also shared with OscarKlossoff the significance behind the length of the hands. The design of the minute hand was influenced by a compass needle(again an ode to finding one’s own way) which has a longer counterweight for balance. I have gotten a fair amount of feedback which shares your concern in regards to the length though. The lightening bolt on the back of the second hand signifies the energy needed to forge forward. Not sure this explanation helps with acceptance off the actual aesthetic, but it might grow on you😉 Definitely going to have some color options in the future.

Hi Southpaw56, good questions about the category. I would say its a bit of a combo, definitely not sport. Dress and impress maybe! 😀. In terms of cleaning, I have been wearing my prototype for nearly a year with no significant build up of debris. It will be water resistant so toothbrush and warm water for anything overwhelming. Also I have a few designs in the works with less open spaces. Stay tuned!

Hi WolfgangGullich, thank you for the feedback. I hear you on the logo. I crossed my fingers on the size initially. I will go smaller in future revisions. 

Hi fudrocker,

   Thanks for the feedback. I will definitely take it into consideration on revisions. Happy to hear you like the hands!

Thank you for your comments Justintime! I really appreciate your feedback.
