Re: SUCCESSFUL: Kickstarter: Iconic Timepieces - Halocline Diver
Iconic Watches has launched an Indiegogo campaign to raise additional funds for the Halocline Diver.
From the campaign:
We began on Kickstarter and in the middle of the campaign the pandemic caused me to lose over half of my backers.
Then a company that placed a 100 unit order backed out at the last minute.
So in order to complete this project I need to raise the $32,000 that the company never paid.
The watches are all done except assembly so delivery will be fast
All the funds will go towards paying off the manufacturer and duties plus shipping.
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/icon ... 16205959#/
Preorder price for any of the four colorways is $480
Regular price will be $675
Estimated delivery is November 2020
