Let me introduce you to a rather exciting Kickstarter project, the Cobra 3 by Cobra de Calibre, a Vancouver based micro-brand. The Cobra 3 is a two crown diver watch, with a CuSn8 bronze case, vintage domed sapphire crystal on the front with AR coating, solid steel caseback, powered by a Miyota 9015 movement.

There are three versions of the Cobra 3, the first one comes with bronze casing with a black dial and black bezel, the second has a green dial with olive green bezel, and finally, the third is a black DLC coated watch with a very sexy bronze ring around the black bezel and dial.

To be successfully funded, Cobra 3 needs to raise at least $27,000 CAD, before the 5th of October. To reserve yours, pledges vary between $499 CAD for Early birds to $1,299 CAD, depending on your choices.

For more details and pictures, take a look at the Kickstarter campaign page.

As a graphic designer, I'm fascinated by the crossroads between technology and aesthetics. Horology is one of these crafts, where art and engineering come together to produce mechanical wonders that grace the eye. WatchPaper was born from the desire to create an online tool where I can share my passion for watches.
