    If I was rich for just a day.. that Kurayami has just became my grail watch. All black with the titanium case… it’s flawless thank you so much for this video.

    This may be the best looking Kickstarter watch I've seen. You can tell the designer has thought it completely through - unique case design, indexes, strap, and lume. I'm not a purple fan, but this one looks great.

    I jumped on this one immediately for the dlc neo tokyo (purple) with the kickstarter. So unique, clean, and cool looking. It's rough that it isn't projected to ship until November but I'm hyped for it to show up. Thank you for the great camera shots and angles

    You know what I was thinking the other day that casio should make a automatic version of a g shock square, this looks almost like I would immagine it, love it

    Lucky to get one of the 50 "super early bird" watches. I chose the Neo Tokyo non-dlc bead blasted. Something you should've mentioned is the bracelet option, the nylon strap option, as well as voting underway for a new dial color. One of white, cherry blossom, or neo tokyo Kanji.

  • @morgan97475
    @morgan97475 6 месяцев назад +4

    That's a rather nice looking watch. The purple one could be called "Future Noir".....like something Deckard would wear.

      Love Bladerunner. I had to look it up. He wears a Microma digital. I find watches in movies to be interesting.

    Got in as a Super Early Bird! I submitted my stuff 10 seconds in when the counter was at 2 and my confirmation was #16. These went FAST. The whole project was fully funded in 20 minutes.
    Really praying we hit that stretch goal for the bracelet.

  • @talanjohn

    Excellent watch design. It almost has a TV style look to it. Fantastic video Dave!

  • @hattyfarbuckle
    @hattyfarbuckle 6 месяцев назад +1

    Jumped on this last week on Kickstarter at the mid price $449. I'm normally a 40mm+ guy but the shape n size of this is very close to my favourite GShock [GBX 100 = 38wide x 35high stainless bezel and 46wide including the wings]. My only problem on Kickstarter in the past was ME - choosing the wrong option so this time I've gone crazy and ticked all the additional options except the white rubber strap. I will be choosing Turbo Blue as my dial later on. This will be my first clunky one-way Miyota auto.

  • @willt.9654

    It would have been fun to see the Neo Tokyo in vibrant red with a little blue (colors from the
    movie "Akira") to really lean into anime/futuristic/sci-fi vibe. However, that purple is sharp.

  • @user-vp2ig3rf8x

  • @kodiakc6227
    @kodiakc6227 6 месяцев назад

    I was wondering what too buy next. I already have 4 divers from the Japanese greats and cant really do better than them but this watch looks really damn special! Start saving for this guy 😊

  • @adk7962
    @adk7962 6 месяцев назад

    It’s a very cool watch. I don’t think I personally have the patience for a kickstarter; although they clearly have enough people who are. Again. Very cool watch. Thanks!

  • @user-ke6xt1yl1l
    @user-ke6xt1yl1l 6 месяцев назад

    Hello and thanks for this video. I love microbrands and noticed Namica with their first watch. And even if I'm not a huge fan of divers, I really appreciated it with its so clean and minimal look. So here it is, their second watch, with nearly the same spirit, based on minimalism, colors and rather huge indicies. Unfortunately, its difficult to know what this one is supposed to be for. Is it some kind of GADA, supposed to be used as an everyday watch? Is it, due to the barely squared shape, a dress watch? Is it just, because of the colors - and especially the blue and the violet one - some kind of fun watch? Hard to figure out. Thus, i'll wait for their third watch, if there is one.

    I'm interested in hearing and learning about other unknown and obscure Japanese watch brands such as this one. I'm tired of hearing about the same few Japanese brands over and over and over again endlessly. Do you think you could do some more videos about such watches? Thanks

  • @ivanfreely6366
    @ivanfreely6366 6 месяцев назад

    First impression. It reminds me of Casio's G-Shock DW-5600 and their iconic beater, F-91. However, that high price tag will keep most people away.

  • @monologic4806
    @monologic4806 6 месяцев назад

    The Kurayami does look like a dress watch. Ironically it is probably better worn in daylight hours, minus the shades.
    Good design and color schemes overall. IMO

    • @Ray.J
      @Ray.J 6 месяцев назад

      Similar but also quite different. It is wider, and the d1 has that sloped wing effect on 4 sides. And the d1 has a date function.

    What are you doing that requires precision second timing in the dark and why aren't you using a GShock for it? 😂

  • @jeebus5063

  • @DanRC69
    @DanRC69 6 месяцев назад

    I'm really liking the blue dialed one, a big shame it's an automatic movement though.
    It would have looked better with it having a black dlc coated case.
    Would I buy one? Hell no, not worth it's price - especially from a kickstarter campaign.

    • @JusttheWatch
      @JusttheWatch  6 месяцев назад +1

      They offer the blue one in a black case option as well.

  • @gundamzerostrike

    They should have rotated the design 90 degrees to make it look longer (and better). Nice watches but way too pricey IMO

    Wish this is more affordable than giant company watch maker. At $4xx, I wonder if they were even sincere in trying to spread the joy in watch collecting.
    Not saying they shouldn't gain profits but wish they were in a win-win situation. I wonder how much clean profit they've gained.

    • @GodIsInHisHeaven
      @GodIsInHisHeaven 6 месяцев назад

      From what I've observed with micros, a lot of 'em typically don't charge enough and prob disappear from the scene quickly as a result. Pretty fair for the specs I'd say.

    • @sunatautama

    unfortunately looks like a squeezed can, as far as watches go. I would never buy one, especially to stand out from the crowd
