PREORDER: Kickstarter: Seaborne Trading Company - The Surfer / Wavecatcher GMT Automatic Collection

Post by TheJohnP »

First posted by @CVP33 here - https://www.manontime.com/viewtopic.php ... 13#p129113

Our old pals Seaborne Trading Company, out of MA, have launched their first ever Kickstarter campaign for their latest collection, the Surfer - Wavecatcher GMT automatic.
The campaign is currently 50% funded


Early Bird pricing is $419
Regular pricing will be $459

Estimated delivery is May 2024

Sometimes you need a watch that takes you away. From a day at the office. A long drive to a meeting. Working from home. Sales meetings. Dealing with your customers. Waiting in line. Whatever -- you know what we mean. The Surfer -- WaveCatcher GMT by Seaborne Outfitters is just the watch. While some GMT watches let you see the time in London, Paris, or New York -- Ours lets you see the places you dream about -- Pipeline, Superbank, Maverick's or Rincon. Renowned global surf beaches, beckoning you to catch a wave, or at least dream about it where ever you are.

Our Seaborne Surfer - Wavecatcher GMT is a vacation on your wrist. Built for travelers, surfers, ocean lovers, dreamers, and those with a sense of adventure. We were inspired by classic surfboard styles of yesteryear to create one of the coolest watches on the market.


The Surfer - Wavecatcher GMT is available in three colorways - Old School, Seagrass, and Blue Lagoon

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

That's cool. The locations all seem to be beachs/wave breaks. I wonder where Hyborian FL is? Maybe fictional?

I don't think it exists. I do know that "Hyborian Age" in Robert E. Howard's works is the fictional setting of Conan the Cimmerian (Barbarian). I wonder if it's a tongue-in-cheek, inside joke thing.

I'm loving the blue colorway, but the typeface is a total turnoff. Wish it had the applied indices from the green model. :( I would purchase in a heartbeat with that change.
