Vandaag watches out of Germany have launched their first Kickstarter for their automatic version of their Schallmauer chronograph.
Though this is their first Kickstarter, they did have a previously successful campaign on Indiegogo.
Phase A pricing was around $1,086 - SOLD OUT
Phase B pricing was around $1,195 - SOLD OUT
Phase C pricing is around $1,304
Phase D pricing is around $1,413
Phase E pricing is around $1,521
Regular pricing will be about $1,855
Estimated delivery is December 2022
In 2020 VANDAAG started as a young brand with the model Schallmauer. A quartz chronograph in the tradition of pilot watches from the 50s and 60s. The design was a precision landing and the success exceeded all our expectations.
But many watch enthusiasts wanted more: An automatic version of the noble retro timepiece! Now we proudly present: the Schallmauer Automatik - made by Northern German master craftsmen and with Swiss heart.
The Schallmauer is available in four colorways - Old Radium, Blau (blue), Weiss (white), or Schwarz (black)

Bought the quartz version for ~$250. Not sure that movement is worth the $1,000+ premium.

Agree Chris, pushing in a very competitive sector here. Hemel much smarter in IMHO and much cheaper...CVP33 wrote:Bought the quartz version for ~$250. Not sure that movement is worth the $1,000+ premium.

I also prefer the round date window on the quartz version.
I wish that watch were 38mm?
