I know I'm not an artist. I drew these while bored in class, I think I was explaining the design to a friend and ended up just drawing it. My initial concept was a 12 hour long sweep, not the tradition hour long sweep we went with.

A week before I graduated from college, I sold my car to a Tag Heuer enthusiast in Maryland. Looking into his collection, I was reminded of my concept and decided to see if it were possible. I made real drawings, HTML artifacts to prove the movement, and started talking to factories.

Talking with factories wasn't too difficult with my industrial engineering experience, but it quickly became evident that my 12 hour sweep movement wasn't affordable to produce. I switched to a more traditional retrograde movement and built the 3D models off that. This is also when I ended my search for an engineering job.

After paying the manufacturing deposit, I launched officially on my birthday, April 17th. With the help of an NCSU classmate, we made cinematic renders to begin promoting with.

As more and more components arrive, we are preparing the first production units to be shipped out at the end of August.
