SUCCESSFUL : Kickstarter: Praesidus Watch Co - Vince Speranza Edition A-11 Automatic
Posted: Thu Mar 24, 2022 10:08 pm
Praesidus Watch Co, "out of Chicago" and part of the Montrichard Group, have launched their first Kickstarter campaign for their second model, the Vince Speranza Edition A-11 Automatic. Though this is their first Kickstarter, they had done preorders directly through their site for their debut, the Tom Rice Edition A-11 Automatic.
I've been in marketing for the bulk of my career and this campaign makes me throw up a little in my mouth with how much they're overusing their ambiguous ties to WWII veterans.
VIP Package pricing with an NH35 was about $275 SOLD OUT
Early Bird pricing is about $298
Kickstarter pricing is about $329
Regular price will be about $483
VIP Package pricing with a STP1-11 is about $423 SOLD OUT
Early Bird pricing is about $446
Kickstarter pricing is about $483
Regular price will be about $736
Estimated delivery is October 2022
After the successful launch of our Tom Rice A-11 in 2019, we have continued our mission of working with veterans to share their legendary stories. This led us to Vince Speranza, a WW2 veteran of the 101st Airborne Division. Since then, we’ve been working on developing a watch fit for the hero: the A-11 Vince Speranza Edition.
Vince made a name for himself at the Battle of the Bulge as a machine-gunner, manning an M1919. He was part of the heroic defense of the Belgium city of Bastogne.
Created in honor of the fallen heroes and veterans who fought and resisted against all odds at the Battle of the Bulge, we are proud to present our A-11 Vince Speranza Edition. Assembled in the USA
For the Vince Speranza Edition A-11, you have the option of 38mm or 42mm and choice between a NH35 or STP1-11 movement.
