Did anyone have time to see this new model from Roebuck Watch Company?
The new Diviso has a 'split' two-tone textured dial in black, and silver,
orange, and blue, green, and gray, and black and white. All with Super
Luminova BG-W9 coated hands and markers. In addition to that, you
also have 42mm stainless steel cases, 100m WR, AR coated sapphire
crystals, inner rotating bezel, or chapter ring, carbon fiber style bezel
insert, dual crowns, tapered leather strap, and Miyota 9039 automatic
behind a nice case-back.
Take a look guys...

Roebuck Watch Co.'s Diviso
Re: Roebuck Watch Co.'s Diviso
Despite IMO, the unfortunate brand name - makes me think of Sears & Roebuck, I kind of like them.

Re: Roebuck Watch Co.'s Diviso
By the looks of it, the L2L is pretty long. I could probably pull it off better than most folks, but prefer not to.
No, it's not Tourettes.

Weird it looks like it has screw bars in some of the pics but not in the others.
The About Us page says this:
My name is Guy Roebuck, Founder of Roebuck Watch Company.
A New Zealand native transplanted to Round Rock, Texas after more than a decade in London, U.K. —dispelling the myth that kiwis can’t fly!
I spent 20 years in the field of architecture as a residential drafter, which wasn’t giving me the opportunities to explore my inner designer/artist, and even longer buying (mostly) and selling watches for my own collection.
I started Roebuck Watch Company in 2015 after an “ah-ha” moment while on a home-visit to New Zealand. During a discussion with friends about what we would really like to do if money was no object—I answered “I would love to design watches”.
Four fundamental elements drive my design philosophy: shape, color, texture, and quality. My mission is to craft watches that stand out from the pack. My goal is to create quality watches that look great and will stand the test of time.

Re: Roebuck Watch Co.'s Diviso
Had thought maybe there was a connection to Roebuck of Sears and Roebuck
at first glance too guys. But then had read about the same story that Terry
posted for us, and thought it was really great.
They kind of have that classic compressor case/dual crown feel, but also
a neat modern, almost racing vibe to them right?!
Even the water tower case-back is different.
Thanks again guys, and special thanks to you Terry for putting that info
up for all of us !
P.S. Was wondering if maybe the disappearing spring bar thing had to
maybe do with the watches being prototypes, or something.
