Interesting Kickstarter project from the names behind Ikepod: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/19447962/amanzoni-and-fils-launch-of-the-canopus-weekplanne" false;



As a thanks to your support, we give you the opportunity to own the first EARLY BIRD KICKSTARTER EDITION of the Canopus Weekplanner at a third of the future retail price, an opportunity you should not miss.



The exceptional design and craftsmanship of this watch will result in a product that retains its value for generations. You will be able in many years to tell to your grandchildren that the revival of this iconic Swiss brand A.Manzoni & Fils was only possible due to your support of the production of their first watch, the Canopus Weekplanner!

We need your help to:



convert our prototype in a production ready model: manufacture the tooling of watchcase, hands, sapphire crystal and metal strap as well as a folding clasp with fine regulation mechanism

adapt the developed DD movement module to the new Soprod A10 caliber to evade bottlenecks with ETA calibers from Swatch group

place our first minimum production orders with the various craftsmen who produce the parts of our watch as soon as possible to guarantee a punctual delivery date (we need to know how big a production we have to launch initially)

Nice design, resembles a bit of SevenFriday design though.



However, the date kills it for me, lol. The date subdial looks to be a bit too small on the dial, from screen, I have difficulty reading those in-between numerics for the date for eg:21-23

Ya actually while browsing their website, the blue dial 1 caught my attention more. The shade of blue is really nice. If i can,t get the steinhart triton le i may consider that :p but how long does new zealand mail take? I,s it 3-4 days like fedex?m wondering why they don,t use fedex since it,s about the same price.
