LIV Rebel Surpassed Kickstarter Record<br />

For Swiss Watches<br />

www.livwatches.com<br />

LIV watches is now on their third Kickstarter campaign and already<br />

breaking records. The LIV Rebel was priced at $259 USD to $790 USD<br />

on Kickstarter and was fully funded within nine minutes. They raised<br />

over $1.7mil, surpassing any Kickstarter record for Swiss watches<br />

ever. How are they able to get so much support in such little time? Lets<br />

look a little more at this new model and find out.<br />

One thing that stands out right away is that this watch is unique: it’s<br />

not round and features an innovative, stadium-design face. Covering<br />

the dial is an eight sided sapphire crystal. The LIV Rebel is being<br />

offered in four versions– an automatic chronograph, quartz<br />

chronograph, a three hand automatic, and a quartz GMT. All models<br />

are in the same unique case. Like all LIV watches, the Rebel is made of<br />

top-of-the-line materials, in the tradition of fine Swiss watchmaking:<br />

The case is machined out of a single piece of 316L stainless steel. It<br />

has genuine sapphire crystal that’s scratch resistant with antireflective<br />

coating. And it has the signature eye-popping, threedimensional,<br />

multi-layered dial with BGW9 luminescence that brings<br />

time to life. Each Rebel watch is a Swiss Made Limited Edition<br />

timepiece and comes with a Limited Edition Certificate. The Limited<br />

Edition number (in addition to the unique serial number) is engraved<br />

on the caseback. Each model is available in a range of color options,<br />

with a choice of several straps, as well as metal bracelets with<br />

butterfly clasps and deployant buckles.<br />

They also offer free worldwide shipping, a five-year warranty backed<br />

by real service and a 90-day return policy (which is unheard of on<br />

Kickstarter).<br />
