Mechanical watches at affordable prices

WICKED WATCH CO. is a new watch brand from Baselland, in Aesch. In 2019 we started our adventure and started designing our first diving watch. Thanks to intensive sourcing we found the right partners.

The watches come in 6 different colors:

  • Phoenix: Carbon with gold dust
  • Magpie: Carbon
  • Crow: Black with coarse texture
  • Cardinal: Red fumée
  • Basilisk: Green
  • Raven: Black mother of pearl (Grade AAA)
  • Neues Design mit dem neuen Logo

Our project

The PEARL DIVER is made of CuSn8 bronze. The case features a 120-click unidirectional bezel, screw-down crown, drilled lugs for easy bracelet removal and is water resistant up to 200m / 20 ATM.

With 40mm case circumference, 46 mm length and 12.5 mm - 13.8 mm height, the watch offers very comfortable dimensions.

The bridge width is 22 mm which facilitates interchangeability with other bracelets. For this purpose we use spring bars.

The heart of the watch is either the Japanese-made NH35A automatic movement or the Swiss-made STP1-11 automatic movement. Both offer very good performance for their price range.

To protect the dial, we chose sapphire. Sapphire is one of the hardest materials in the world. For our premium model we use a Swiss made sapphire (SEBAL AG).

To make sure that the diving watch can also be used as a timing instrument in a dark environment, we use Swiss Super-LumiNova®, a product of RC TRITEC AG. These afterglow pigments have been used by the Swiss watch industry for decades.

As an innovative company, we use LUMICAST on the dials which are high precision 3D cermic parts made with Swiss Super-LumiNova® pigments. This step is carried out with Les Cadraniers de Genève SA, Meyrin. This technology was previously used only by IWC, H. Moser & Cie. etc.

What is all included:

  • 1x Watch with leather strap installed
  • 1x Natural rubber bracelet
  • 1x Nato bracelet
  • 2x Leather pouches (1 for 3 watches, 1 for tools)
  • 1x Tool for bracelet change
  • 1x Metallic warranty card
  • 1x Instruction manual
  • 1x cleaning cloth
  • 1x container with spare spring bars etc.

Changes for production version:

  • «WICKED» on dial will be replaced with our W logo (made with Lumicast)
  • Text printing are all in white
  • Spring bars instead of screw bars
  • 15 min track on the bezel

The delivery of the watches will take place between August (Japan movements) and October (Swiss movements).

This is what I need backing for.

We need support for the production of the first batch of the watches. Since we do a lot of work in Switzerland, our costs are higher than usual, but we also deliver a high quality product. That we rely on the location Switzerland is also a statement, because we are proud of it.

For your support you will receive a watch at a preferential price depending on the amount.
