As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

SUCCESSFUL: Kickstarter: Ianos - Avyssos

Post by TheJohnP »

I am not a dive watch guy, but I don't really recall seeing a hand wound version before, so thought others might dig this.

The Ianos Avyssos

A modern designed Swiss made diver watch inspired by the Antikythera Mechanism and millennia-old freediving Greek tradition



For roughly *24 Hours*, you can get an additional fabric watch roll.

For the two steel case/bezel colorways (brown or blue), pricing is $730.
Retail price will be $1,550

For the two black PVD case/bezel colorways (black or blue), pricing is $765
Retail price will be $1,620

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 look really nice. The only other hand wind diver I can think of is the Christopher Ward C65.
I wish that watch were 38mm?

Because I didn't see this dimension listed, asked about height.

The height of the case including the bezel is 12.57mm

It’s a better deal than this, sandwich dial is cool but 44mm and 54 lug to lug is massive. So overpriced too

This one doesn't really appeal to me on looks but I wouldn't mind seeing some more manual wind sports/tool watches in the future. Links to a few write-ups below.

Glad to say that I got a deluxe bundle and cannot wait for it to come out
Congrats Jasco Team and all other involved. The game looks great and the minis do too.
Hope this helps Jasco get more word out for UFS and expand upon more franchise after seeing how successful this kickstarter was.
