INDEPENDENT WATCH MAKER SINCE 1999

Introducing the new YES WorldWatch V7 with wireless induction charging.

After a lengthy process of development and testing the wireless charging system has proven flawless. Getting it manufactured is proving to be a financial challenge. 

To put watches into production we need to raise an additional $10,000 plus quickly, and to that end we are re-opening our existing Indiegogo crowd funding campaign offering 5 unique perks at great pricing. 

Just remember, this current fund raising tally started at $147,085. We’ll reach this new and expanded goal when hopefully we get to $157,085.

All of the V7 wireless have the exact same time data as listed in the link below, except it has the wireless charging and the addition of a minute marker in the outer yellow dial, which is available with a 60-minute bezel design:

A custom made charging bed, which will be made black in production, allows the watch to be charged with bracelet and straps attached to the watch. The battery icon in watch read charging level. On a full night of charging you’ll get about 3 months of battery life.

Many of us wear our YES watches with the digits turned off. To make the reading of time more accurate in this mode, we added the option to set the outer yellow dial to show 60 minutes. Combined with a 60 minutes bezel, it will give an accurate hour and minute read without turning on the digits.

The back plate will have a golden crystal that covers the interior charging coil. This solution will allow for a very speedy charging process and it will look much cooler than it does in this rendering

The YES watch  is a 24-hour clock that through an ingenious screen reflects the actual times of sunrise, sunset, zenith, twilight, moonrise, moonset and moon phase along with the passing of hours, minutes and seconds. The  trim tab feature makes the quartz movement run to an accuracy of plus/minus 0.5 seconds a month.

Geoff is a seasoned watch enthusiast, world traveler and a captain piloting B787’s for Air Canada. He has been testing one of the four V7 prototypes in existence for a month. He sent me a picture from the flight deck, and posted a review on WatchUSeek. Click on this link to see what he had to say:  Geoff's WatchUSeek Review

    The tritium tubes combined with the electroluminescent back light makes for a crisp nighttime read of the watch face.

People  from all walks of life have found their YES watch to offer practical applications and insights for time management not found in your ordinary watch.

 Across the planet there are upwards of 20 different Daylight Saving Time systems. The WorldWatch incorporates all of them in the programming for the relevant cities and automatically adjusts for them. If need be, DST can also be turned ON and OFF manually. Check out this video to see what happens at the time of DST change.

In video clip below you can see how the WorldWatch switches time between your HOME and AWAY city.

This clip shows you how to set the WorldWatch to one of the 7 languages.

This video shows you how to set the outer yellow LCD ring to show times for either MOONRISE/MOONSET or SUNRISE/SUNSET for the alternate city.

This video shows you how to engage the compass. 

In today’s world of over connecting the WorldWatch offers a fresh perspective on being completely independent. It doesn’t need a signal, it doesn’t need a phone, cannot be tracked and doesn’t need to be charged every day. It focuses solely on your time, like a personal time keeper that travels incognito.

Building a business.

In business since 1999, we set out to build a unique time piece that would connect the natural  cycles of the sun and the moon with the constant ticking of hours, minutes and seconds. You may ask why would we want to do that? Connecting the dots surely proved much more complex and intriguing than imagined, but the simple reason is that it helps to manage time with greater accuracy and timing in order to get the most out of it. Whether you are a slow going seeker or an extreme sports enthusiast it would be naive to think that the day and night, the sun and moon, has nothing to do with the experience. 

Check out this interview. It is from a long time ago, but it  does cover some of the highlights on how we got started:   An Interview with the Founder!

I came at the watch business as a total rookie, with an idea only, just wanted a watch that could tell me times for sunrise.  Couldn't be that hard, right? 20 years later I feel like a graduate whose wings have been carefully clipped. We couldn't have done it without the  caring involvement and expertise of our manufacturing partners. The WorldWatch V7 is the best timepiece we have ever put together.

Peterson, a dear friend, a bon vivant, angel investor, pilot, farmer and a loving dad sent me this video. He was one of the earliest adopters of the classic WorldWatch, almost 20 years ago. It made a most beautiful cameo in this video. California Flight

Karl is a true early adaptor, but not one of those who talks about it. So I will do it for him. He was the 4th to contribute to our EQ campaign and he bought the first WorldWatch V7 prototype off my hands just a couple of weeks ago. It arrived in Germany a few days ago and this is what he had to say:

          Hey Björn,

My World Watch has arrived.

I am really so impressed... the blue hand and silver case, the colors of the display- definitely the most beautiful watch you have ever made! Also love the ratcheted bezel ring, moveable in 12-minute steps. Of course I noticed that the serial number on the back plate is actually ONE. How cool is that? I feel very honored! 

The WW is really such a big step forward, though it is essentially the EQ combined with advantages of the older versions. The solar and lunar rings, also the moon not visibly divided into segments- looks better, day/night division of the whole watch face. There are so many little things: the light stays on just a little bit longer, the alarm sound seems just a little bit louder, the buttons will not be activated involuntarily and most importantly: the hand is now thinner and the digits bigger, so the hand will no more interfere with readability. 13:00? 13:06? 13:08?

I would say this watch is really your masterpiece. Finally I found the watch I had dreamed of... and it did NOT cost 20,000 as expected. Thank you so much!
