Not only is he the bracelet guru, he's also starting his own brand! Just stumbled upon this on kickstarter

Good for you Micheal but don't quite your day job just yet, I've got a 9315 that needs a little TLC:

Wow...wow wow

Loevhagen · 24 December 2016, 08:55 AM

Sorry to say; not impressed. Good try - but doesn't stand out among others that have the same objective.

A famous / well known name should simply not be enough to propell the project's success.

Lordofrolex · 24 December 2016, 09:00 AM

Yes i saw that. Im sending a bracelet to him soon.

Watchflair · 24 December 2016, 09:06 AM

Honestly I like it ~ $170 for a fairly customize able watch... not bad in my book. I like throwing the cheap ones into the mix every now and then - key is they must have character.

T. Ferguson · 24 December 2016, 09:54 AM

Ironic for MY that all the configurations seem to come on straps - no bracelets.

Old Expat Beast · 24 December 2016, 11:46 AM

Just a quick glance on my iPad, but quite impressed. I'd wear one of those.

Anyone know what the case sizes are? Can't fine it anywhere on their site. Kind of like that Killy.

donaker · 24 December 2016, 12:48 PM

They look great but I wish he chose a fully automatic movement. I'm sure it would have been tough to do so at such a low price point though.

All the best to Michael!

To kickstart a family member or "new to watches" friend those might just be the ticket.

I'm not a fan of batteries in watches but for a startup I can get it.

I'd better pack up that 7206 and get it over to him soon also.

Jfullm42 · 24 December 2016, 03:37 PM

I ordered a Killy, why not at $155 its something fun and different

Nsx_23 · 24 December 2016, 04:17 PM

The Killy looks pretty nice.

slashd0t · 25 December 2016, 02:00 AM

Nope.

adiorandomhero93 · 25 December 2016, 02:34 AM

I like the quick release straps

mps354 · 25 December 2016, 07:53 AM

I really like the Killy and navi

etp095 · 25 December 2016, 03:12 PM

The Killy looks good to me.

Agree completely. For that reason, I have ordered his Killy. Will support Michael, and have a fun addition to the mix.
