This is my first fully desgined model, with a few more upcoming.
This one is a tiki inspired piece, with tropical elements such as the tiki motif indices, pineapple icon at 1 on the date wheel, vibrant colours, and bamboo knot bezel.
Happy to answer any questions
Best,

Hi all,
Over the last 12 months I’ve been building a brand focused on creating thematic, character‑driven watches that still feel conventional and wearable. I’m looking for feedback on where a design stops being tastefully thematic and starts drifting into being too on‑the‑nose or gimmicky. (Or even if the design doesn't go far enough!)
Our first release is a sports watch inspired by tropical and tiki aesthetics. Intended to be subtle enough to wear in an office, but with personality when you look at the details.
Future models planned (not yet revealed) include:
- Space‑themed bicompax
- Nuclear‑themed diver
- Post‑apocalyptic field watch
All follow the same philosophy of exercising restraint so the theme enhances the watch rather than overwhelms it.
I’d love to hear your thoughts. Reuploaded with better quality pictures.
Hello everyone,
We're now live on Kickstarter, our biggest discount tiers sold out almost immediately, but you can still grab a good discount if you're interested. Thanks for the support on my previous posts here.
All the best,
Kai
