The Kame is like no other turtle you’ve seen! IKIGAI has unveiled their second release, and this 200m dive watch is sure to please enthusiasts that appreciate unique, original designs and excellent builds! Of course you all get all the great specs that microbrands can offer in the budget watch category. The Kame features a sapphire crystal with AR coating, premium Miyota 9039 automatic movement, and a custom bracelet with quick release springbars and tool-less micro adjustment. I’ll show you more in this full review video of the IKIGAI Kame!
4/2/24 UPDATE: There were some technical issues with the Kickstarter campaign and IKIGAI has decided to cancel it and produce the watches on their own! So, as of right now, you can't pre-order or make a deposit, etc, but the watches will be available for sale along the same delivery schedule. I encourage you to follow IKIGAI on Instagram, or via the newsletter on their website, for more details and future updates.
4/9/24 UPDATE: There has been a design revision of the Kame which alter its looks drastically from the prototype featured in this video. For fans of this original design, including myself, it's a sad day. But Auscar, IKIGAI owner, felt there was too much negative criticism regarding the bezel and indices. Without the Kickstarter campaign, he is funding the minimum order quantity on his own, so a safer more tame design equals less of a financial risk for him. There is hopes to revive this original design at a later time, in limited quantities, for those uber fans interested in supporting the original campaign.

This prototype watch was on loan from the manufacturer for the purpose of showcasing on this channel. A production model will be provided to me after a successful Kickstarter campaign, but no other compensation is involved. This prototype was returned to the manufacturer after all filming was completed.

Love the dial design. Love the lume 😱😱 Nice watch overall! Hope they do well ❤

The whole watch is done really well! Their last watch was pretty successful, and that one doesn't appeal to me as much as this one. But what do I know?!

Great to see a design that breaks the norms a bit!! That bezel is superb 😎👍

Right?! It's traditional at the core, but little quirks here and there to set it apart from anything else. Brilliant design.

I like how it looked on that 2 piece strap towards the end of the video better than the metal bracelet... Also rotating the bezel, when the flat side is at the 12 position versus the triangle notch position it gave it a different look. Pretty cool. I hope it does well.

I always try to throw the watch on some other straps, so you can see some different looks. But for some reason I only liked that 2 piece ARTEM equal to the bracelet. I really like the bracelet, but some other strap choices can break up all the steel for sure. This one's a winner...it should do well!

Definitely unique! The grip from the top side, where we seem to grab it anyway, is SO good.

Nice review. I like the design. I have a Maru, so perhaps I am partial to Auscars design style. Agree that if you are interested in the watch, Ikigai is a safe kickstarter bet, so I would not hesitate. Auscar is very engaged with the community and his passion for producing great watches is refreshing. Now to pick a dial colour…..💙🧡💜

Yes, I should have pointed out that his first watch was wildly successful and all orders were delivered. The build quality on this is spectacular. This is a by the book example of what microbrands can deliver in design, specs, and value! I think this blue is my favorite, but Solar Flare is trying to steal my heart!

The triangle at the top throws it off for me. No balance in the bezel with 3 triangles close together at the top. Otherwise i like it.
@WatchWitt
@WatchWitt 4 месяца назад
I didn't feel that unbalance, but I can understand your point. For me the symmetry of the two triangles on the bottom matching the top ties it in. Then the 12 o'clock triangle is just its normal self! This bezel is likely a love/hate situation for most, but I really love it!

1st impression: Not keen on the looks As I watched the review ..... it grew on me and I started to imagine wearing it Then I saw how it looked with the bezel in certain positions ..... and I went off it again Full marks for originality though
@WatchWitt
@WatchWitt 4 месяца назад
Haha! Love that you did a full circle! The more I wore it, the less the bezel seemed "funky" to me. Definitely full marks for originality. Enthusiasts always complain about boring watches, or unoriginality from homage pieces or inspiration.....well, here you go! I love microbrands like this! You can't say this looks like anything else...
