First time creator

I like the shape and seeing the working mechanisms from the front. It is a stylish watch for sure. Not something I want, butbi appreciate the look of it.

They are giving back to help with donations once they are able to after the KS helps them launch.

Not cheap, but not over the top.

First time creator, but the impression is good

Personal preference, but I really don't like the look of this watch myself

eco-concious lab-grown gemstones rather than mined diamonds, no mention of where the leather straps get their leather though

It seems like a nice time piece, so the price is fair if you like the look

Could be delivered if the goal is hit.

Interesting design, but a little gimmicky.

Could be used for a long time. environmentally friendly.

A little expensive.

It's a pretty cool watch!

The idea is a bit different form the rest.

The light feature is not so good of an idea.

Very pricy.

First time creator, so some caution around quality, but watches and led lights have been around

Very cool, would ask more about it if I saw someone wearing one

Uses Moissanite instead of mined gemstones

Not a watch person so can't tell if it's a value deal, but seems like a reasonable price for a luxury good

I like my watches to be smart, but this is a pretty design that looks unique. If I was after this sort of watch I'd get this, I like that you can see the mechanisms from the front.

Looks interesting, but could have done with better production of videos.

Sven thanks for the ratings! I plan on taking some photos of how it looks on someone not super skinny like myself haha ! But I can tell you that the responses has been overwhelmingly positive. Almost everyone that holds it in their hands for the first time tell me that my pictures don't do justice , that it looks even better in person , and that it has a bit of “good weight” to it. Its actually made from 316LSS stainless steel , and feels the part indeed. I have a couple photos of it being worn and it looks great here is link to google doc for reference:Photos of it being worn other than myself: (photos taken with iphone)

edit: I added photos of them being worn on bottom of kickstarter in social media section. Thanks! 

Professional photos are incoming soon too =) 

Thanks for feedback!

I'm not a watch person, but this looks pretty cool - I would definitely ask about it if I saw the watch in action on someone else's wrist

Dear BackerClub Community, 

Its an Honor To Serve The King, and an Honor to be part of this community! 

Who am I? ✨

My name is Shaheen Miller, and up until recently I was just a regular guy who enjoyed a really good baked chocolate-chip cookie and a glass of milk, but everything changed when I had a vision of a watch concept, I'm sure had to come from God himself.

How did we get started? ✨

The watch was so beautiful, I decided to draw it in adobe, and when I had finished it, I knew it was something special.  Excited to see it in 2D, I got more curious and decided to see how it looked in 3D. I had no experience with 3D design, so I did google search after google search, YouTube video after video and spent 900 hours learning how to do 3D CAD modeling design. I showed it to my wife and to my surprise she liked it (major accomplishment indeed), and she gave me the name Northern Star Watch. After this I filed for design patent, the LLC, trademark and found a manufacturer to work with. 

What makes us different? ✨

The Northern Star Watch is unlike any other watch in the world. It features gemstones on the dial and custom-built LED board called the Horizon Ring (patent pending), that produces a light that when shone on the gems, it creates a glistening like stars in the night sky and can be seen from a great distance away.  Our watches make your wrist light up unlike anything seen in the world today, but this is with purpose. Each watch represents a different charity or mission that will be sponsored, as the owner at checkout gets to choose where (at no additional cost to them) they would like their watch to sponsor. Areas we like to support once live on our own website include: International Missions, Children's Healthcare, Environmental Cleaning/Restoration, Poverty and Veteran Support.  

What do we want to accomplish? ✨

The vision behind this product is huge and the responsibility is great, and I've devoted these last two years in making sure that everything is the best quality and done correctly. 

It is also in our hearts to start a Northern Star Watch Foundation that will go towards FREE LUNCH for kids that cannot afford to eat in states that do not allow it. It breaks my heart thinking about going to school to learn hungry and coming home hungry. Northern Star Watch wants to ensure that no kid has to experience that... NOT ON OUR WATCH! 

We believe that our product the Northern Star Watch will be a bright light in this world, and we will continue to work hard to ensure that the light keeps shining! 

 

Warm Regards,

Shaheen Miller
