There are some interesting watches on Kickstarter. I have a diver from Oceanica coming in the next week or so.

I may jump into this one too, but haven't decided yet. https://www.kickstarter.com/project...?ref=nav_search&result=project&term=blanchard

 

How about Humism? I got one of their watches via Kickstarter. Basically instead of a second hand, they have a patterned disk that rotates and interferes with a pattern on the dial:

A modern version of the Borel Kaleidoscope watch- very cool!
The Borel was the first vintage piece I got for my lady and she was mesmerized- and then hooked on mechanical watches- a great gateway drug.

 

It’s cool I don’t think I could mentally deal with looking at it continuously though

 

My kid pulled the trigger on these without consulting his old man. Having now seen them in the metal, pretty solid value in a Bahaus watch. He balked at my suggestion of a Chronoscope and he likes but can’t afford Nomos yet. Now of course he’s in love with the Baltic GMT.

 

Just picked up one of these:

I dig the minimalist industrial vibe.

 

Quite a few I've never heard of, but can't list them for that reason.

 

Nomos. Hard yes. One day, Wolverine...

 

I may find an excuse. His mother is adamantly opposed.

 

Sounds like it's 2-1 in favor of the Nomos

 

This is the one I have.

 

Did you get the Farer? I’m also in the market for an “inexpensive” GMT for travel (once it resumes) and have been staring at this Farer for two months. Would live to hear the feedback if you got one.

 

That's a nice looking watch. However, I prefer my GMT watches to have a rotating bezel so that I can quickly work out the time in a 3rd time zone.
No, I haven't got the Farer yet. I only just got my Speedy FOIS a year and a half ago and used up all my brownie points with the wife. Need to build up my reserves again
From what I've read in reviews, they work OK but the quality of the finish is not as good as TAG, Omega etc.

 

Anyone familiar with this brand. Interesting history with a link to Auschwitz. Could have the wrong camp lost the link but have the watch. Advertised as a USA made quartz movement. At the time the article was printed they were in the 299.99 price range. I’ll dig up the info but a pic will suffice for now

 

Real USA movement.? I had heard that there is a company making.

 

Yes that is what it said but I need to research. Could be more of an “assembled in US”

A little more info

 

Timex was challenged on why they went with Ronda in their American Documents line. Their comment was that Ameriquartz was unproven, or something to that effect. 5 year warranty I think addresses that issue.
