Coquitlam, CA — On August 14 2015, Steven Scanlan launched a Kickstarter campaign for Whytes Watches, quality mechanical limited edition Canadian watches with character and gravitas – to help you discover your inner pioneer. For this campaign, the Venturer Collection, two styles are available: the Discoverer and the Pioneer.
“We are surrounded by mountains, lakes, rivers and cities and a rich historical heritage. The BC Lower Mainland was at the heart of the gold rush of the mid-19th Century and also an important trading center for commodities,” the creator explains, “The gritty, strong pioneering people who explored, worked and settled on the land, together with both the natural rugged and urban landscapes of our home provides the inspiration for our watches which combine modern precision technology with historical and classical undertones.”
Whytes Watches are designed in Canada and made to last. They feature 316L Surgical Caliber stainless steel, Sapphire glass that only diamonds can scratch and an Anti-Reflective (AR) coating applied to the inside. Each watch comes with a soft calf skin leather strap that feels great on the wrist. The Venturer Collection is also waterproofed to 100m, to provide that extra security when you swim that challenging river, drop it on a muddy slope or battle the raging storm. Wound by the movement inherent in your wrist, the watches need no batteries, ever.
“In the hopeful event that we secure sufficient funding from our Kickstarter campaign, we will then be able then to go straight into production of the watches,” says Steven, “We have invested our own resources but initial production costs of such a quality timepiece in a limited edition range are high, and we have been successful in keeping the cost to you down to a minimum. Everything is in place and we are poised and ready to go. We just need your support, and we thank you for that.”
In exchange for pledging to the project, backers can gain access to a variety of limited rewards including one Venturer Pioneer Watch for as little as $229, a Venturer Discoverer Watch for $249, and more. Backers can also pledge $449 for one Venturer Discoverer Watch and one Venturer Pioneer Watch or two Venturer Discoverer Watches (with your choice of strap color and standard buckles).
