Hi folks. Last year, we hinted at the return of the Kalahari, one of the most sought-after and interesting watches we’ve made. I wanted to give an update on that project. To catch those of you up that have never heard of the Kalahari, this was a desert military tool watch we launched on Kickstarter in […]
At the end of last year I made a number of decisions about the Kruger V2 and have since pushed the go button on prototypes. Many of you were excited about the prospect of an automatic version. I can confirm that it is going ahead! Movement The automatic version will be using the Valjoux/ETA 7750, […]
Hi folks. As you may know, I am an avid fan of outdoor adventure and equipment to take into the outdoors. A while ago, I mentioned we were looking into an alternate use for the MOLLE pouch we ship our watches in. A first aid kit was the most popular idea, and makes sense as […]
For those of you who don’t know, Kruger was the titanium chronograph we launched in 2022. It had a mecha-quartz movement (i.e. battery powered), with a mechanical chronograph module. The Kruger received excellent reviews and is still one of our most requested models, so we are dying to bring it back and make some improvements […]
Hey folks. A new year and an exciting new project! The Peregrine is the new release we have scheduled for launch in March. I’ve got a few pics of some of the components to share with you. The cases will be fully brushed, in the same way the Aoraki was. We haven’t done a display […]
Hey folks. I have been giving some thought to what models we will release in 2024, and started a couple of discussions on our social channels about some of our past models. In a previous email, I shared some designs for an updated version of the Peregrine, a pilot-style watch we originally launched in 2017. […]
A month ago I talked about possibly bringing back an old model, the Peregrine. This updated version would resolve many of the quirks of the original. It is still in the design stage but I wanted to share with you a few 2D renders to get some feedback. The first thing you’ll probably notice is […]
It’s time for an update on the next Draken: the Aoraki (“au-ra-kee”). For a lot of you, this might actually be the first time you’ve heard about it. Being a tool watch company, we’ve tended to produce watches in larger sizes. We’ve done dive watches, a pilot watch, a military-style watch and a chronograph, all […]
Yep, sometimes we do follow market trends, and the popularity of the Tugela Super Blue LE could not be ignored. We’ve had so many requests for the Super Blue LE since the limited 120 pieces sold out, that we had to find a way to bring that colour combo back. So, please let me introduce […]
It’s been a while since I shared some info on the Kruger, so in this post, I would like to share a bit about the final dial design, and a few tweaks we’ve made along the way. So, for starters here is the line up! We wanted to keep it simple and utilitarian for this […]
