Egard Watches has officially launched their first model, the Shade. I don’t have too much info yet, besides what the specs have been provided. I love the look of the layered dial, but without some information on the location of manufacture of the dial components it will be difficult to guess how well put together the dial is. Hopefully it is as impressive as it appears it might be. Also, I do not have pricing yet:
43mm case
15.7mm case thickness
22mm lug width
316L stainless steel case (2 versions one IP/PVD black)
Miyota 8n24 skeletonized movement (2 versions, 1 gold plated)
lightly domed sapphire crystal top with AR coating
Sapphire crystal bottom AR coating
water resistant to 20atm / 660 feet
Thick leather strap with butterfly buckle
comes with spare brown leather tang strap
