Interesting new company/concept/contest

[Ten Years]

Just wandered over from a couple of the other forums. Have you guys heard of this new venture/company? If anything, it's a very unique concept. I'd bet someone from this forum could win one of those watches!

BTW: Absolutely no affiliation with either site; just thought it was a kind of an interesting business idea.

I think the concept is very interesting. The initial watch they show, I don't know what to make of it yet.

However, I do see this having decent potential.

I agree about most of it having potential, especially since a real veteran of the industry is running it, but I have a feeling the "text on the bezel" thing will go away pretty quickly. The contest is pretty fun, though. Cheers.

Man, what a ponderous website. I made it about 20 seconds before I got bored and closed it down. Didn't even see one watch.

Strange Redhawk. I saw 11 models and it was easy to find O_o

Loaded the Red8 website. Clicked on "High Speed Internet" on the bottom right.
Then I hovered over "Red8" menu on the bottom left and chose "Watch Collection".
Click the button "See All Models [>" and then it loaded a gallery of them.

You can also hover over the "Yellow" menu and select "E-catalog".

Price seems to be $880 USD for the current models.
I generalized the specs below.

Case: Steel PVD (doesn't define it to be stainless)
Bezel: Aluminum
Crown: Steel and Red ABS Hard Plastic
WR: 200M/660FT
Crystal: Sapphire with AR Coating Inside
Caseback: Steel Screw Down
Dial: Superluminova on Applied Indexes
Buckle: Steel PVD
Strap: Silicon Rubber
Movement: Epson I-Matic Quartz (couldn't find any info on it. Seiko/Epson Kinetic I'm assuming)
Guarantee: 1 year with registration

I'm extremely impatient and difficult to please!
