Alpina from that list and a few microbrands that should be there: SWC, Vaer, Momentum, Boderry is even making some interesting stuff for a steal. Get rid of that Tommy Hilfiger and other "fashion" brands. They may not spend a bunch on advertising the watches, but they sure do on their other items.

316L, "We also applied a layer of anti-reflective coating", BGW9. I feel like the kickstarter price is a bit high for those things. £299 / / $373. So many good spec'd watches around this price -- Only thing it has going for it is the Miyota 9039, sapphire crystal (guessing single not double domed) and drilled lugs.

Don't get me wrong it looks nice, but would rather put that amount into something that's been around a bit. Especially if this early bird pricing is 45% off final pricing.

That's my favorite time of the day, and my wife laughs at me about it. Glad someone else appreciates it

That Murph is really starting to grow on me. I've always been a Khaki Field fan, but that is gorgeous too.

Almost all of my watches have such small date windows with colors that blend in to be actually useful for me. So I'd prefer a cleaner dial and skip the complication.
