CROFT Watches, a new micro-brand watch company, are pleased to announce today that they will be launching their first collection of watches, The Richmond, on the crowd-funding website Kickstarter on 20th April 2016.

The team sought to create CROFT Watches to produce high quality, luxury watches, without the brand inflation and excessive retail mark-ups many major brands apply today. Conceived in London, UK, and Designed in Melbourne, Australia, “ The Richmond ” has been influenced by both countries’ lifestyles.

They have spent past twelve months designing and working with their manufacturers to optimise both the production and retail processes, ensuring quality stays high, whilst costs stay low. They believe by reducing the middlemen who take a slice of the pie, consequently adding costs and mark-ups to the final price, they can deliver luxury at an affordable price.

“The Richmond” is priced at $125-130 USD and will be officially launched via a Kickstarter campaign on 20th April 2016. Customers can stay up to date with the Kickstarter campaign and news updates by following us on any of our social media channels in the links at the bottom.
