Artemis Time Art out of Singapore have launched their first Kickstarter campaign for their first collection, the Glimpses of Nature, featuring hand-painted Champlevé enameling.
These are small (33mm) and quartz, but for hand crafted enamel dial watches, the pricing can't be beat.

Early Bird pricing is around $220
Regular price will be about $335

Pricing for the Kickstarter exclusive "Guiding Light" model is around $208
Comparable retail price would be $339

Kickstarter pricing for the limited edition "Migration" model is around $216
Regular price will be about $370

Estimated delivery is September 2021

Our process is essentially an updated version of the traditional art of Champlevé Enameling. It is a technique which harks back to as early as the 3rd Century, and was prevalently used in jewelry and ornate boxes. First, a metallic plate is carved and etched with the artistic details, forming troughs. Vitreous coloured enamel is then pulverised, liquified and filled into the troughs. The entire dial is then fired in a kiln. The annealing of the enamel creates a smooth, glossy coloured effect resembling stained glass! It is then left to cool and set. Dials are then assembled along with the hands, crystal indices, and movement into the watch. It is secured with a caseback, and tested for water-resistance.

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

These are beautiful. I'd rock the Guiding Light one.
I wish that watch were 38mm?
