Inspired by fashion forward personalization. We are done with one size fits all, lets build our own unique watchband/strap/bracelet.
What is a prototype?
A prototype is a preliminary model of something. Projects that offer physical products need to show backers documentation of a working prototype. This gallery features photos, videos, and other visual documentation that will give backers a sense of what’s been accomplished so far and what’s left to do. Though the development process can vary for each project, these are the stages we typically see:
Proof of Concept
Explorations that test ideas and functionality.
Functional Prototype
Demonstrates the functionality of the final product, but looks different.
Appearance Prototype
Looks like the final product, but is not functional.
Design Prototype
Appearance and function match the final product, but is made with different manufacturing methods.
Production Prototype
Appearance, function, and manufacturing methods match the final product.

Risks and challenges
Transparency is our priority, we started our progressive update well before the campaign launched and we will continue to do that. There is surely risks and obstacles we may face along the way in achieving our goal.
- We have reduce the risk to the minimum by producing the near to final prototype, tested and improve before launching. This helps in reducing the overall lead time between final prototype and mass production.
- Our dearly manufacturer had been partnership with us for a few projects now. They know how we work things out and we know their ability,reliability and quality assurance.
