Oceanica has launched their second Kickstarter for the latest model Reef, which they are touting as "the world's most affordable automatic dive watch."
Early Bird Pricing for the first 50 will be $199
Appears regular pricing will be $325

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks

Retail, wholesale never fail

Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

Re: Preorder: Kickstarter: Oceanica Watches - Reef dive watch
Not a bad little watch. For the $325 I'd rather have a Turtle, but it's pretty attractive at $199.
I wish that watch were 38mm?

Re: Preorder: Kickstarter: Oceanica Watches - Reef dive watch
I'm guessing the FTC has bigger fish to fry than Kickstarter microbrands but I'm still always surprised that people and companies make these claims. Nobody really believes this statement so it immediately brings discredit to the campaign. All they would have to do is throw in some ambiguous language like "one of" and they're off the hook. Just like like Carlsberg before they decided they that their previous slogan was inaccurate.

Re: Preorder: Kickstarter: Oceanica Watches - Reef dive watch
The Kickstarter is fully funded and still active.
But Oceanica went ahead and launched an indiegogo campaign as well.
Price is roughly the same, at $200
