Please, rate my watch project Contempus!

[contempus]

Hi, everyone. My name is George. I and my team are working on the watch called Contempus. It's about timepieces which are inspired by contemporary design and architecture objects from all over the world. It's totally a designer object, influenced by this discipline and glorifying it. I've finished studying design recently myself, so it's a kind of field experience for me. There are two models with depth in a dial's design - one is more smooth, and another is more edgy. Hands are concave and follow dials' shape. There are two options - with one and two hands? We're going to launch a KS campaign in future. Could you give your opinion on the watch, please? Do you like it or not? Is this project worthy?

Here are some pics and more on imgur gallery page: imgur.com/a/N9imf

A much thicker case will add more depth to the dial would be nicer IMHO.

Markers instead of printing on the dial will make it look much better as well.

Your watch curvy dial with a thin case had caught my attention very much.

Are the hands and hour markers lumed? Is it an Swiss Movement automatic watch? How does the case back look like?

[Kesharoo]

Hi,

Very good and brave initiative. I like the 2 handed black dial. Looks to me like a quartz movement watch around 38mm? Good luck!

I think the thin case stands out for me. I would suggest maybe lumed indices or something eventhough it's a dress watch. That's something different than most of the DW watches.

Colour wise, the white looks like the white rolex explorer though hahaha.

and for the lugs, it looks like its has quite a huge gap between the case and the leather strap, somesort like sumo with a leather strap making it obvious like a hole in between. maybe closer the gaps a little bit? and the lug width is 22mm?

I like the design. Something not normally seen. Go for it!

A thicker case would appeal more to the masses now.
Overall the design is right on!

Black dial looks good. Two hands better, three if you can but use those silent sweeping seconds hand.

Maybe hesalite dome to really accentuate the concave dial?

Agree comment on the lugs. Needs more refinement there.

Good stuff keep at it!

very much like it, this is a hit

way much better looking compared to others

Thicker case or/and domed sapphire glass! that'll make it a killer watch to die for! legibility may be an issue,  though.
other nuances will be the having applied index marker rather than printed dial. to add more texture to the dial.

nice design!

looking good, maybe another version with thicker case as an option

I would agree with danslater. Would love to see the design with a thicker case as an option.

Cheers,
Hazwan

What kind of pricing are you looking to price it at?

[contempus]

Hi, everyone!

Thanks for the feedback! I'll dig deeper into the answering a little bit later! We've just launched our KS campaign and it's started pretty good! Look for Contempus here if you want to get one

Oh, you're not local?

We all assumed that you're based in Malaysia.

Found your KS project, Good Luck.
