New ZRC offerings.

Post by Axelay2003 » Sun Oct 22, 2017 4:47 pm

This brand and case shape still intrigues me.

I was close to purchasing the 2015 model. These new ones look good too. I just don't know if my 6.75" wrist size will sport this watch without it looking odd.

This vintage looks well balanced.

The North Adventure looks good, but cyclops is questionable. It is bead blasted with polished highlights.

I like the new Logo. Less clutter and no triangle.

Love that vintage one, but I’ve heard these wear big. I’ve got the same size wrist as you, might be a no-go for me.

I love ZRC but have never seen one in person. They just look too long and flat for my 6.5 incher.

I like the vintage one. I have the same size wrist and did wear a GF300 for a while. It wears differently, for sure, but not really too big. It's long because of the odd lug connection and crown at 6, but it wears narrow since there's no crown on the side. The issue I had with mine was the strap. I didn't really love the supplied nylon strap, and regular natos don't work. A 2 piece nato worked ok, but I still didn't like the way it wore. The available bracelet looks awesome, but from what I read it's not going to fit a wrist below 7". Ultimately I'm glad I tried it for a while, it's a very cool watch and certainly different from anything else, and even though I bought it new I didn't lose too much on re-sale, because they rarely come up FS.

“The Black Phantom” sounds like a superhero name......or maybe it’s what they call Adam when he’s dressed in his leather bondage gear?

Refer a friend to get a tool kit. Both parties will receive the kit which consists of four special screw drivers and a ZRC zippered case. They sell it for 190 Euros.

If there is anyone on the fence, ZRC just added a bonus to the ZRC North Adventure Tool Watch kickstarter campaign. Team up with an existing backer and we both receive a free toolkit. I'm a backer looking to partner with someone about to jump in. Please PM me if interested! 

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...ic/description

Here is the process:

Step 1 : send us a message at contact@zrc1904.ch to confirm the name of your affiliated backer

Step 2 : your affiliated backer pledge for a North Adventure watch pack 

Step 3 : you will receive a confirmation email from the ZRC Team and will both get a free toolkit !

Hi my friend!

I'm a ZRC North Adventure Tool Watch backer, are you about to pull the trigger on one or are you already a backer? Hopefully the prior so we both could get a free tool kit each Image

All the best!

I'm sorry but did I offend you somehow? I found it fit to ask a question regarding this topic in an already existing thread and I didn't really understand if Axelay2003 was looking for a backer or was about to back it. Anyway My intention was to send him a private message but it became public one, he didn't get offended but somehow you did? Sorry my bad

Lol. That's the welcoming committee. It's a very efficient way to embrace new members.

No worries, perhaps I was wrong not introducing myself first. I'm a regular guy who's obsessed with watches like most of us on these forums :) I found this thread and thought that this info would be useful to those who hasn't decided yet and of course maybe get a free toolkit as well. To tell you the truth I don't really care if I get a toolkit as long as the watch gets funded as the campaign lost steam halfway through. Would really be a shame if I didn't get funded IMHO.

Thanks

That is a shit ton of money they are attempting to get. Over a quarter million.
I doubt production will cost even close to that.

I agree. I think realistically they should have had the goal of $150,000.
