Apelviken Watches out of Sweden, has just launched their latest Indiegogo campaign for their new summer GMT collection.
Apelviken used to go by Lanna Watches.
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/apel ... 16205959#/
Indiegogo pricing is around $135
Regular price will be about $325
Estimated delivery is November 2020
There's not a lot of info on this campaign.
It's using a quartz GMT movement and probably composed of mostly catalog parts.
But it's cheap and using different, unusual colorways.
So I imagine someone will want to give this a shot.
Three colorways available - yellow, mint, and pink
Specs:
- Movement: Ronda 515.24H GMT
- Diameter: 40 mm
- Lug width: 20 mm
- Case: 316L stainless
- Strap: 316L stainless mesh
- Lumed hands
- Crystal: Sapphire glass
- Water resistance: 20 ATM

Interesting. The mint would be my pick but I’m not a buyer. I do like the idea of a sub-$150 quartz GMT though.

I like it. Their logo looks like an ice cream cone or a piece of cake laying on its side, which... is appropriate
I wish that watch were 38mm?
