No date?
Vintage style?
Great movement?
This is the ideal watch for me. Price is a no-go though.

Re: PREORDER :Kickstarter: Merlin Sea Legend - 30th August 2019
If I remember correctly, you don't get on KS campaigns, however if you do get on the super early bird option, it seems like a good deal for USD 329. Is Zodiac/Eterna a better option comparatively?

Re: PREORDER :Kickstarter: Merlin Sea Legend - 30th August 2019
looks great. I'm committed to 2 other kickstarter projects or I'd probably be joining this campaign. I like the "additional" features options which would push the price up from $329 to over $400 with a bracelet or Italian leather strap.
Make time to take time.

I'm in! They even said they'd consider doing a date version!

Perhaps backers can let them know we're discussing their watch on this forum.

Re: PREORDER :Kickstarter: Merlin Sea Legend
As the campaign is not moving to it's goal with just 12 days remaining, the creators have decided to announce that "the Golden Boy and Dark Wizard which many have requested for are now available as an option rather than a stretch goal"
