Tyler,

I been emailing to Peter from Helson watch right after that GTG and we need at least 50pcs in order to have our own project watch. I think the MOQ is abit hard for us. So i drop this brand at the moment. But if we really hit the dot then we might having HELSON bronze shark diver as our project watch which i personally like it very much

sadly for me if it's around 5k area then nope... would take a chunk of my pay and i could get 2 nice vintage omegas for that price.. but i like any tries to do something special!

Godzillaz · « **Reply #31 on:** April 20, 2012, 07:23:58 AM »

Thanks Erik.

At least you give us a range for price.

OK, how about RM3000 sounds?

We might have to cut some corner but we will know who we should talk to and who we shouldn't.

Tyler

Can try googling up Olivier watches. Looks reasonable and cool for an ETA equipped bronze watch with 2 different bezels and a few dials options to choose from.

Last check it's 850USD I think. Maybe can get cheaper with a bulk order minus all the frills of boxes and etc

Godzillaz · « **Reply #33 on:** April 20, 2012, 07:50:06 AM »

Thanks for the info. Initially I was thinking of contacting manufacturer of these bronze case directly. I might get a foot up my behind to send me out

Tyler

Hello folks,

Its a great initiative by a member to start a project like this and we salute him!

Just to make things very clear:

MWF the forum and name is in no way associated with this project watch and hence what is planned for this project is by the person who started it only.

Godzillaz · « **Reply #38 on:** April 20, 2012, 02:22:16 PM »

Thanks you for making it clear that so far the effort have been this one person alone.

MWF is in no way endorsing whatever this person is trying to achieve.

I got the message. Seriously I do.

Regards
Tyler

So any update?

Godzillaz · « **Reply #40 on:** April 24, 2012, 11:23:14 AM »

Nothing new but am exploring whether It's possible to purchase just the bronze case only directly from the manufacturer.

myric · « **Reply #42 on:** April 25, 2012, 09:20:11 AM »

I'm interested but honestly, the looking of that "watch" and the price going be the final decision on the pay cheque.

However, terrific idea!

KEV · « **Reply #43 on:** May 11, 2012, 10:33:26 AM »

I will be interested to have one too

WilsonWS · « **Reply #44 on:** May 11, 2012, 11:04:08 AM »

I am very much interested too.

Of course, subject to price and the design of the watch too.

Kind regards,
Wilson

watchcraft · « **Reply #45 on:** May 29, 2012, 09:41:20 PM »

What is a comfortable price for members to buy this project watch?

Less than RM2k or RM1k?

lups · « **Reply #46 on:** June 07, 2012, 09:42:40 AM »

just stumbled onto this topic and i would like to put my name down for one.

how do i go about that?

JayJay · « **Reply #47 on:** June 09, 2012, 07:39:05 AM »

Interesting,
I am keen to join, tell me how?

Is is a bronze material similar to ship propeller ,
I like anonimo bronze mellimetri polluce

Godzillaz · « **Reply #48 on:** June 09, 2012, 08:25:59 AM »

Thanks for all the reply.

Right now I'm planning to contact the case manufacturer in hope of keeping the price down.

I think bronze is the material to aim for but must be careful it don't turn up a brass.

Will update periodically.

Regards
Tyler

Watchadvocate · « **Reply #49 on:** June 09, 2012, 10:13:35 PM »

Nice. Count me in too. Subject to price and design of course.

Cheers
