Comment on their KS page:Please note that due to currency fluctuations and Kickstarter conversion rates, we have slightly increased the prices for our rewards in SGD. The equivalent amount in USD will remain the same (or slightly higher or lesser).

Another example, for the Early Bird Price of SGD 485, as at 29 August 2019, 1045 am EST, the equivalent amount in USD is approx USD 349.42.

No date?
Vintage style?
Great movement?

This is the ideal watch for me. Price is a no-go though. :|

If I remember correctly, you don't get on KS campaigns, however if you do get on the super early bird option, it seems like a good deal for USD 329. Is Zodiac/Eterna a better option comparatively?

looks great. I'm committed to 2 other kickstarter projects or I'd probably be joining this campaign. I like the "additional" features options which would push the price up from $329 to over $400 with a bracelet or Italian leather strap.

Perhaps backers can let them know we're discussing their watch on this forum.

As the campaign is not moving to it's goal with just 12 days remaining, the creators have decided to announce that "the Golden Boy and Dark Wizard which many have requested for are now available as an option rather than a stretch goal"
