Not much!! I just looked at the website and can't remember the last time a website used so many words to say nothing.
They’re pretty inoffensively designed, decent enough specs. The price is a bit steep though on my opinion. They remind me a little of old military dive watches, I think there’s some blancpain influence there.
Aesthetically, I like it. Though not for the price, there’s so many other options in the 2k range.

I think they are new and are launching KickStarter....maybe need some help in the marketing department...LOL

I think they are just starting out on KickStarter, saw it first on IG. I think at $375 it's a much better deal....
Another generic Kickstarter. 😴.... Not for me, but if it floats your boat go for it.
Meh.
I want to know the story behind the name. Does it mean something or they just played around with a common word, "monitor" in this case?
It reeks a bit of Filippo Loretti, or Valucci...Valucci Lorenzo...? Whatever those made up Italian sounding names those people have picked out of thin air to brand POS watches under.
The watch looks like a Seiko 62MAS and a Unimatic had a baby.
I put myself in the mailing list. I'm curious of the launch and roll out but I have many questions.
But if you told me Anthony the founder, was moonlighted as a GQ model I wouldn't question that. 🤣

No, no, it's (phony) French, don't you see. "MOAN twah"

That could be a stock photo of a GQ model.

For all my razzing the name, I do like the way this watch looks.

I like the watches too. But something feels off.
I had a look on kickstarter and their previous project on this same watch (just with a bracelet) was cancelled in July of this year.
I might be looking into it too much but they just emailed out that they were pulling forward their release on kickstarter to Oct 10 but if you wanted a "super VIP early bird" you can reserve it for $1...
Too much artificial scarcity and hyping for me and the aforementioned cancelled project but I'll just keep watching to see if this actually comes to life.

I can't say which model but it reminds me a lot of the Bulova aesthetic.
Maybe that's just me.
I do see some Bulova there now but wouldn't have if you didn't mention it. I can see why you're interested in this company.
I backed em. I have been looking for something likr this for a long time and the name doesn’t really bother me. Its a simple watch that can go with anything and i got it for a great price considering the SW200
