Thanks again, I really like both the square Zenith and Omega Chronographs... After all, I have always been a chronograph guy, perhaps if Attivo is successfully funded, I may consider releasing the "Attivo Chrono" version? What do you think?

At least a render or a Photoshop could be done.... ;)

There are two economical options for the movement: a manual winding Seagull "Venus" ST19, which is the only affordable mechanical option, or a Seiko MecaQuartz in quartz with hybrid chronograph part. With an ETA 7750 caliber or a Seiko NE88 it is very difficult to keep the price contained, and the Chinese Valjoux clones have a reputation for unreliability.

Personally I would prefer the Seagull, but perhaps other aficionados may have another opinion.

Haha, okay since you have asked, this is a quick rendering... there are indeed two issues, one is the cost while ST-19xx will be more affordable, NE-8x will probably add at least an additional $300 to the price, and the second issue will be the thickness/height which will be at least 14mm or even 15mm... But, at the end of the day provided there are people willing to buy.

OK I have been eyeing the Attivo for a while as I don't have a 70s style square watch. I just saw that it was close to its funding goal and thought, let's take it over the finish line. Therefore I pulled the trigger and pledged.

The project is now officially over its Kickstarter goal and is going to be funded. Congratulations [mention]VesuviateWatches[/mention] and I look forward to my (still deciding, but likely green) Vesuviate Attivo!

Congratulations to Vesuviate!
It has been a nerve-racking 20 days and I am so glad that Attivo has finally made it! This is not without the trust and supports from all of you the backers as well as the folks from our wristwatch community that has supported me and allowed the use of their platforms to promote my brand. I want to extend my sincere gratitude and appreciation to everyone for helping to bring Attivo to production. Many thanks 🙏

I have successfully increased my pledge to include the leather straps with custom end links. A quirky process thanks to KS, but easy nonetheless due to great email communication by the brand owner.

Yes, many thanks to all the backers, Attivo will now progress to the production phase as it has been successfully funded almost two weeks ago, currently, 37 pieces of Early Bird Rewards are still available to grab, the campaign is ending very soon! Thanks again for everyone support on this campaign, much appreciated 🙏
