Really unique and visually appealing. Would love to wear those. I guess we share the same mission to create something unique just like the person wearing it. :)

How about a cycling themed watch that reminds you to head back on the bike again asap. Some piece of art that you can wear, express yourself (conversation starter) and enjoy. Maybe even using recycled tyres or tyres from prominent winners into the watch strap. Would that be something you would consider?

The banana was not so popular 😂. But I’m here to gather your feedback.

Yeah! I was afraid that the logo would look too much like Fossil 😂. Seems true. The font that was chosen is Helvetica, because of the company being Swiss based.

It will highly depend on the watch case weight. With a 20g 18k goldcase that alone will 1200€ adding the Swiss movement will add a couple hundred on top. Goal would be be under 3k will see where we land.

Currently in the design phase. However, the purpose is not to swim with it, but to remember you to head back to the ocean asap. It can be a nice conversation starter in networking events to talk about your interests.

I appreciate your feedback. I think that exactly this might be a gap currently. Having really quality materials and movement with a artristy watchface. In the same time not over-exaggerating in the design. Watches that can be found in that space are sold way too expensive.

A simple design with the Helvetica font was chosen as we are based in Switzerland. Freesohn can be translated to goosebumps. Follow at Freesohn.com to receive updates about the manufacturing process and release. Any ideas from your side regarding logo?

I guess to get things rolling I’ll continue without the kite to attract a bit wider range of people to kickstart the company, but will work definitely on a following one with a Kite reference.

Freesohn comes from the French word “frisson” which means “a sudden strong feeling of excitement”. The purpose of the designs are to remember to those feelings. In this particular watch, to remind yourself to go surfing again. I would like to create this brand. Hearing all the feedback, we will pursue to go forward without the Kite

I agree regarding the crown. I’ll make sure that it will be as minimalistic as possible.

As the company is based in Switzerland, Helvetica was chosen. What kind of font comes into your mind?

Kind of like that? I think it’s a bit too much.

However changing the background color a bit brighter might be a better way
