The first release from the Swiss/American team behind Moduco focuses on the raw and industrial design of the urban environment. And it’s good-looking to boot, with a stunning array of colourful dial options – blue, green or brown – and a nicely decorated ETA 2824-2 movement inside. With a 200m water-resistant case inspired by dive watches of the 1960s, namely the Patek Philippe Nautilus, this is a sports watch made for exploring. The Laventure Marine can more than boast about its Swiss-made designation, with more than 90 per cent of the watch produced in Switzerland. Here are five examples from the sportier end of the Kickstarter spectrum. However, every now and then, through the fog of “industry disruptors” and “affordable luxury”, shine a few gems that, at least we think, are worthy of a second take. Sorting the good from the less good can be a massive task. The humble platform that began as a way for up-and-coming designers to tender their ideas – and, if they were good enough, have them brought to life – now crowded by cookie-cutter designs, each touting the same old story. Here at Time+Tide we receive a lot – and I mean A LOT – of emails from young brands directing us to their new watch launching on Kickstarter.

Next, the GX Divers Swiss Automatic allows men to take their adventures deep below the water’s surface. This design draws inspiration from the original Kickstarter watch, which started the brand’s successful journey. Secondly, there is the GX Swiss Auto Chronograph. The first, the GX P51 Swiss Auto Chronograph (Pilot’s Watch) is a rare piece dedicated to the P51 Mustang WW2 Plane.

On offer this time around are four exquisite, bold new watches. As a result, ‘The Breakthrough’ is exactly what the world wants. Consequently, they are affordable and appealing to all types of men. Drawing new meaning from their direct-to-consumer model, the founders designed this collection through interaction with their customers. Aptly titled ‘The Breakthrough’, these limited edition timepieces each hold unique qualities and vary in price. On the 29 May 2018, LIV has released their four-piece, highly coveted new collection. Now, the expert watchmakers at LIV are back. As the saying goes, the third times a charm, and this highly sought after timepiece, launched in 2017 received $1.7 million (USD) in crowdfunding. This went on to secure $1.1million (USD), becoming the most crowdfunded Swiss watch in history. Just over a year later, the next instalment, the Genesis X1 Automatic reached their goal of $30,000 (USD) in just 34 minutes.

In 2014, the first LIV Kickstarter campaign saw the release of the Genesis X1 Chronograph, which received full funding within a mere 11 hours. Following 22 years of industry experience, they set out to create an entirely new line of timepieces that would appeal to the multi-faceted modern man. Founded in 2012, the direct to consumer micro brand LIV was inspired by co-founders Chaz and Estie’s love of the outdoors and attraction to premium watches.
