After 6 hours of thinking about it, the tingling didn't stop. I'm in for late bird tier. There's just something about that blue...

Were you not interested in the bracelet?
Looks like early bird still available for the Full Pack pledge level for not much more.

Not interested. I find bracelets deeply unattractive.

Re: Preorder: Kickstarter: Viqueria Watch Company - Levante mechanical chrono
There is a Youtube review for this watch by the guy who runs The Microbrand Store. Basically he seems to really like it except for two things. The crown is too small and difficult to wind for a manual wind watch. And the bracelet looks to be a bit cheap and the endlinks actually didn't fit the case. While I probably won't be buying this, I do like the look of this one and the price is great for early backers. I have a Baltic chronograph and I have no complaints about the movement. It's great to see another affordable mechanical chronograph on offer.
