Great questions. I can't answer as detailed as I would like to do. But, I can't be 100% sure that these watches will be of the same quality, but I'm 99% sure.

Great questions. I can't answer as detailed as I would like to do.
But, I can't be 100% sure that these watches will be of the same quality, but I'm 99% sure. I've dealed with these manufacturers for a while and we have a tight partnership.
I don't want to misinterpret and give you wrong info, so what do you mean with ballpark? Not sure what you mean :)
- ethbro 11y agoUnderstand there are contractual (and business!) limitations to what can be said, so thanks for any answers. :) By ballpark, I meant could you give round numbers (ie number of figures) on the up-front investment to get something like this off the ground? Or whether it's a back end per-item partnership? Also, kudos to you and best of luck. It is a nice design, and you're right -- the watch community is under-served by reasonably priced but simple designs. Some of Seiko, Citizen, Orient, and especially Skagen's stuff is nice, but it's amazing how terrible other pieces are. Some of my favorites are still vintage from the 60s!
- mkaroumi 11y agoGlad to hear that from you. I'm really sorry, I can't tell you how much I invested but I can tell you that it was for the first batch and not per-item charging. So you kinda need to invest a lot of money to start something like this - if you want to create great quality products :) Vintages from the 60s are sooo amazing. We were actually inspired from some vintage watches (and modern watches) :)
