WOW – is the watch industry in the press nowadays it is often only negative to hear, be it falling sales figures or the turmoil surrounding the various watch fairs. BUT a small watch brand from Bern – Zahnd & Kormann – also manages to successfully shape the 2nd crowdfunding launch.

“We are happy and satisfied that we are also successful with the ZK No.2 on Kickstarter and hit the nerve of the time!” Roger Zahnd & Florian Kormann say in unison.

What the watch brand from Bern has achieved in its latest litter with the ZK No. 2 is an offer that you have never before got with such great options at this price – on the market and on Kickstarter.

Thanks to portals like Indiegogo, Kickstarter etc. crowdfunding is on everyone’s lips nowadays.

But did you know that only 1 out of 3 crowdfunding projects of the world’s biggest platforms Kickstarter and Indiegogo are successful?

And that’s exactly what Zahnd & Kormann watches did in 2017 with over 170 % target achievement and is now on the verge of doing with the new watch. With the first project for the ZK No. 1 they could raise the money for the start of the production of this via Kickstarter and has shipped over 250 watches to about 30 countries to date.

What a success for 2 independent friends from Berne, who without investors, as newcomers to the watch industry, have acquired and learned everything they know from A – Z themselves.

These experiences to make and to have are nowadays priceless and it gives you the advantage that they know, on which one got involved with the start of the new ZK No. 2 and they know how to successfully complete a crowdfunding project!

The goal of Roger Zahnd and Florian Kormann is still to make automatic Swiss Made watches more affordable for many more people. In addition to an unmistakable design, they rely on reliable and well-known Swiss movements that can withstand any comparison – and this, in combination with additional technical specifications, at an unbeatable price!

They are convinced that in the price categories from 500.00 – 3000.00 CHF, where the Swiss watch industry has lost ground in the past, it can be the entry and access point for younger people as well as for watch connoisseurs.

What makes the new crowdfunding project for ZK No. 2 so special?

Now with the ZK No. 2 we offer a COSC certified Swiss Made Automatic watch in a GMT and / or Diver version for an unbeatable price on the market. Something that has not yet been available in this version at this starting price.

“With the new project we try again to raise the money for the production of our new model via presales.
