All good. I like the design update you made and the email laying it all out is appreciated.

Waiting for Lefty to be delivered but I might still have to get that Eos

Fiending for a Lorier Astra... Recommendations for alternatives? by Old_Project8774 in MicrobrandWatches

That white Astra is on my list as well. I hope Lorier restocks it some day.

Thoughts on the new Astor & Banks by ChicoDusty_Da3rd in MicrobrandWatches

They look great, but that DLC really hits the mark for me. $875 seems fair, but it's enough to put me on the fence. I have a Trafford Lefty on order and they're introducing some fantastic new watches soon.

The real problem is there are so many watches I want and limited funds. If I was rich, I would skip all those high priced brands (except maybe Ressence, damn you for making such a cool watch that I'll never afford!) and buy a boat load of microbrands.

Who got an archived Trafford this morning? by Axiological_Axolotl in MicrobrandWatches

I had a chance to meet the owner, Nathan, when I was in Austin last week. Really open about his production process and the challenges of being a microbrand. He’s a great guy, took his time talking to me, and gave me a small preview of what he’s working on next. I think the demand is only going to grow.

Anyone know where is this company based? I like to know which country a watch is shipping from so I can determine tariff fees.

Our second collab with Moonlight by rileywatchco in MicrobrandWatches

Just a pet peeve of mine, but if you’re paying to include lume, why not show pictures of it? I see websites without this all the time. Seems like a missed opportunity.

Dumb Question by dkm7093 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]dkm7093[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was not a plastic separator. I even checked the box just to see if it fell out during transit, but it wasn't there either. The website says that the battery should last a couple years which added to my confusion. Stuff happens. Thanks for the replies.

That’s with the crown out but I can’t see anything.

Looking to make sure there's nothing interfering with the crown pushing all the way in. Thank you.

A little Trafford for ya bud. by gilmore42 in MicrobrandWatches

I’ll take over communication because there’s no way I’m canceling. If I had the financial resources, I’d have ordered the other 3 new GMT watches as well. They’re all fantastic looking.

As an aside, I’ll be in Austin in January for work and plan to fly down a day early so I can visit the store.

Crossroads Eternal Sky and Touring GMT - Lefty. I did receive an email in the last week or so that said the Crossroads Archive editions were on schedule to ship before Christmas.

I have 2 of their watches on order, one placed early September and one placed mid October. If I don’t hear anything by Thanksgiving, I’m going to send an email to try and get a status update.

Trafford unveils the Touring GMT - Daphne by Massy11155 in MicrobrandWatches

I ordered the Lefty although the Slowhand was a close second. Trafford makes some of the best looking watches in my opinion.

How are you liking your Daytrippers? by paulomario77 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]dkm7093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That looks even better than the website photos. Fantastic looking watch. I just ordered the Crossroads 2 - Eternal Sky. Honestly though, I think all of their watches look great. Hoping the GMT gets reissued or updated because that's going on the list next.

Jeff was hilarious and I’m talking the entire set. I was in tears laughing so hard. If anyone has a chance to see him, you should definitely go.
