After launching our first watch series last year "The Pocavi Gent Series" we are on Kickstarter this time around to introduce our next watch. What inspired the Pocavi El Presidente watch was a visit to the Smithsonian Museum in Washington DC. We came across a pocket watch which belonged to the 16th President of the United States. Abraham Lincoln. The story behind this iconic pocket watch inspired the birth of the Pocavi El Presidente. Our team then set out to design a timepiece to honor a great American hero.
At the heart of the El Presidente is a 26 jewels Japanese Miyota 9132 Calibre featuring a power reserve complication with over 40-hour power reserve,24-hours sub dial and a date window.
It's beats at 28,800 bph with a super smooth sweeping seconds hand.
This Calibre is fully automatic and your wrist is the power source.
Why not Swiss? Over the years Japanese movement has closed the gap between Swiss movement. The Miyota 9000 series are close competitor of the Swiss ETA 2824 and a movement from Swiss with same complications will increase the price of the watch astronomically which will mean us passing on the cost to you and that is against our business model.

After designing a truly unique Timepiece, we didn't stop there. We pushed the boundaries a little further by including a pair of matching bracelets to complement each variant of the El Presidente watch.
After designing the El Presidente, it was hard finding a manufacturing partner who could manufacture the El Presidente to exact same specification. After months of trying different manufacturers and, countless prototypes. We found a manufacturer who for decades have manufacture watches for high end watch companies.
