New hands anyone? To me somehow the hands are the most difficult part to design. But this time I had a very creative supporter!

Inspired by the sketch by the 匿名の人 / Tokumei no hito, here is a new set of hands! What do you think?


I set the price for the prototypes to be <strike>43.6 EUR / 47 USD</strike> NOW 32.7 EUR / 35 USD (I could negotiate to increase the prototype production number to lower the per-piece cost!) plus shipping per a set of hands. It isn't cheap I know, but this is pretty much the cost of making new molds for the hand set divided by the number of prototypes (and therefore I will not be making profit prototyping these), and at least these are very original, and very very limited for now!

It would look like this when paired with the Imperial Dial.

1-Year Manufacturing Defects Warranty

I have been wearing one of the functioning prototypes for almost 6 months. So far, it's functioned with no problems, and I am confident that it would for at least the next 6 months.

The reason I made sure that it's specifically 1-Year warranty for "Manufacturing Defects" is that I believe that most of the people who have never utilized the warranty of a product don't realize that the warranty only covers Manufacturing Defects. Some watch brands offer a longer warranty, such as 5 years or 10 years—but by then, how would you know that your broken watch suffered a manufacturing defect, or normal wear-and-tear? And would you ever be able to convince the brand's customer service that it was indeed a manufacturing defect?

Their warranty doesn't cover wear-and-tear, or user error, and neither does this warranty. But I do think it is important to clarify that it is a warrant for manufacturing defects, instead of just issuing that it is a vaguely worded "warranty" which sounds like something that might cover something more than manufacturing defects. And 1 year is enough time to warrant manufacturing defects.
