UNSUCCESSFUL: Kickstarter: Unity Watches - The Black Pearl

[TheJohnP]

Hopefully third time is the charm.

Unity is trying their 3rd Kickstarter campaign to fund their Black Pearl dive watch.
First failed attempt was in May 2018, then they tried again in November of 2018, and now they're back.

Honestly, not too interested to see what the differences are between all the campaigns, but posting each of the links for anyone who does want to dig deeper.

Back to this current campaign.

There are 30 slots available for the lowest tier price of $630
Their retail price will be $1,100

These look OK, but IMO the logo and name on the dial are too large and not a fan of the SS bezel. The red outlined minute hand also looks off to me when the second hand is also red outlined. The more I stare, the uglier it seems to get...lol. I really do not like the exclusivity-driving pricing either. The white lume is cool though.
