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: Vandaag Watches - The Schallmauer Automatik Chronograph Collection

Post by TheJohnP »

Vandaag watches out of Germany have launched their first Kickstarter for their automatic version of their Schallmauer chronograph.
Though this is their first Kickstarter, they did have a previously successful campaign on Indiegogo.


Phase A pricing was around $1,086 - SOLD OUT
Phase B pricing was around $1,195 - SOLD OUT
Phase C pricing is around $1,304
Phase D pricing is around $1,413
Phase E pricing is around $1,521
Regular pricing will be about $1,855

Estimated delivery is December 2022

In 2020 VANDAAG started as a young brand with the model Schallmauer. A quartz chronograph in the tradition of pilot watches from the 50s and 60s. The design was a precision landing and the success exceeded all our expectations.

But many watch enthusiasts wanted more: An automatic version of the noble retro timepiece! Now we proudly present: the Schallmauer Automatik - made by Northern German master craftsmen and with Swiss heart.


The Schallmauer is available in four colorways - Old Radium, Blau (blue), Weiss (white), or Schwarz (black)

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

Bought the quartz version for ~$250. Not sure that movement is worth the $1,000+ premium.

Agree Chris, pushing in a very competitive sector here. Hemel much smarter in IMHO and much cheaper...

I also prefer the round date window on the quartz version.
I wish that watch were 38mm?
