SUCCESSFUL: Kickstarter: Lesablier Watches - Sport Classic

Post by TheJohnP »

Second Kickstarter campaign from Lesablier Watches out of Washington, DC for their latest model, the Sport Classic
FYI, their first Kickstarter, the Aviateur VQ was successfully funded.


Super Early Bird slots have sold through
However, Early Bird pricing is still available for $310
Regular price will be $460

Estimated delivery is January 2020

Backers will receive:
- A Lesablier Sport Classic watch
- A fine Italian leather “Classic” band
- A water-resistant soft silicone “Sport” strap
- A handmade wooden box with suede lining
- A 1-year international warranty

Interesting aspect is that Lesablier timepieces feature their individual production number right on the dial. This means that every single watch is ever so slightly different than the next.

For the Sport Classic, they are only producing each colorway in a series of 100 units, meaning each dial bears an individual number in the following format “XXX/100”.

The Sport Classic is available in five colorways:

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

This is definitely not a case design I've seen before. Here is a write-up from A Blog To Watch. It is a sponsored post but it has some great photos.

This one is a really interesting design. I could see it being divisive, but I am drawn... I do wish they had an option for a swiss movement.
