UNSUCCESSFUL : Indiegogo: The McKinley Watch Co - Skylark Automatic GMT
Posted: Thu Jun 10, 2021 10:58 am
This is a slightly confusing campaign with a LOT being presented.
They're promoting three watches equally, but two are only stretch goals.
They're also promoting a program where you have a chance for your watch design to be made and get paid for it.
In addition, they're also offering discounted store credit to their site.
So I'll try to boil it down to what they're actually offering, an automatic GMT watch called Skylark.
The only thing that gives me confidence about their ability to delivery is their working with Wiegand Custom Watch, LLC, who run Lum-Tec.
If you want to learn more about submitting your watch design, just go to the campaign link as they explain it there.

Indiegogo price, including an art print, is $799
Regular price is $999
Estimated delivery is March 22
Here are the two stretch goal watches, which I hope the Odgen sees the light of day.
Specs:
- 2893-2 movement from industry-leading Swiss watchmaker, ETA
- GMT complication (2nd time zone)
- 50-hour power reserve, 21 jewels
- 39mm case, polished 316L stainless steel
- Screw down case back with flat sapphire exhibition window and 316L stainless steel
- Screw down crown
- 10ATM (100 meters) water resistance
- Double-domed sapphire glass with anti-reflective coating
- 12.5mm thickness
- Thick printed hour indices with Super-Luminova lume
- 20mm lug width, 50mm lug to lug size
