PREORDER : Brand Direct: Batavi Watches - Architect Collection

Post by TheJohnP »

*UPDATE - 4/6/22* - Batavi is doing on final restock on the Architect.


*UPDATE* Batavi is self releasing new colorways of the Architect.


Batavi Watches out of the Netherlands have returned to Kickstarter with their latest collection, the Batavi Architect.
It's a steel sport watch with integrated bracelet...WAIT! don't go yet, they're including an adapter, so you can use regular leather straps too!
This is their third campaign, the first campaign was canceled, but their relaunch was successful.


Early Bird pricing was around $435 SOLD OUT
Kickstarter pricing is around $470
Regular price will be about $622

Estimated delivery is July 2021

For me, what separates Batavi from the rest of the pack constantly releasing steel sport watches with integrated bracelets of late, is the copper and wood dial options. But more importantly, the adapter they're proving. That's a nice touch.

The three colorways are inspired by three different building materials - copper dome, blue steel (yes, I know...), and walnut wood.
