SUCCESSFUL : Kickstarter: Langdon Watches - Parkdale Automatic

[TheJohnP]

This is the first Kickstarter and first model from Langdon Watches out of Toronto.

The good - A really affordable $130-ish auto with no-date, small seconds, and a Frederique Constant Classics Index style vibe.
The bad - Mineral crystal. 41mm sized case with a 21mm lug width!



But I still like the looks of it, so here we are.


Early Bird pricing is around $129
No word on regular retail pricing.

Estimated delivery is September 2020 for the first batch.
November 2020 for the remaining inventory sold.



Available in two dial options and three strap choices:

Oh yes the bad. I concur!

I really like this. The 21mm strap size and 41mm case don't bother me.

I'm going to seriously consider it. If there were a white dial/blue(d) hands option, I would have already backed.

I actually purchased one off their website back in July. The watch is actually quite beautiful, movement was a little loud, about the same as a Miyota 8215, but having a small second hand auto with hacking at that price... can't complain at all!

Would love to see pictures if you can share them.
