WHY Watches hopes to raise $25,000 to bring an architecturally designed timepiece to life
PERTH, Australia, Oct. 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, WHY Watches, launched on crowd-funding site Kickstarter. Starting from $90 for the early bird special, the Midnight Collection is the first architecturally designed timepiece to hit the platform.
The Midnight Collection was designed by an Australian graduate of Architecture. Inspired by architectural principals to bring joy and excitement to the wearer. Each timepiece is a direct result of hundreds of customer feedback forms issued to existing customers over the lifespan of WHY Watches. Each watch is a unique unboxing experience, with a tantalizing hourly feature you'll be eagerly awaiting.
David Tomic, Founder at WHY Watches, explains: "I wanted to attempt something bold, something different for my profession, as a result, WHY Watches was born. Now almost two years later, we have created a timepiece that allows you to experience what architecture is really about; it allows you to experience purposeful design that brings joy and happiness to your life, rather than another mundane watch just ticking away. After years in development, we can't wait to share it with the Kickstarter community and have them help nurture this unique timepiece with us."
On the hour, every hour, the bespoke minute hand aligns flawlessly with the bottom line of the logo; a feature which will have you waiting and gazing for the hour to tick over.
"The 'Y' logo is a symbolic expression of WHY Watches origin. The two lines of the logo are split exactly 31.95 degrees either side of North, representing the latitude of Perth, Western Australia."
