Why do they state "bicompax" on the dial, we can see that. Maybe they should state " watch" as well, just in case we couldn't tell.

Not to crap on your purchase, it is a lovely watch, just a crazy design choice.

 

Why do they state "bicompax" on the dial, we can see that.

Well, strictly speaking, it isn't even that..

The terms bi-and tri-compax actually refer to the the number of complications, rather than the chrono sub-dials as it is commonly used today. Or at least, that's how the terms were coined initially.

-> How Watches Work: Bi-Compax Vs. Tri-Compax
-> WHAT TWEAKS MY TOURB: You've been misusing the word "bicompax"

So, according to the original definition, the Studio Underd0g Bicompax is a actually a uni-compax chronograph.

 

“Assembled in Great Britain?” LOL

 

It will look great sitting in my watch box next to my Timex that says “Assembled in Philippines” 🤣

 

My wife fell hard for this via some review video or other. She loved the colors; "The Unoriginals" homage of a homage aspect sealed the deal.

She thought the drop was tomorrow. Which would have been way too late to score one... Called and asked her if she still wanted one, "YES!" OK, she's getting one...

 

It's doing a real 'pinball' number on my eyes.

In this installment of WTMT, we discuss the history behind the compax name, and why many misuse the word bicompax.

Is it just me or do they keep pumping out the same watch but with a different dial?

 

Next dial "Studio Same Old Dog"

 

Very nice. That belongs on the wrist of someone in a chemistry lab somewhere.

 

 

Tough crowd! I happened to like how their watches look and don't have any issues with any of the words they put on the dial, so I ordered a Watermelon version during this drop.

 

Nah, man.
They are overwhelmed by the awesomeness. It happens to the best of us.

I thought about getting the Guacamole. That sure is a pretty dial. 1.5 hours left as I type this.
But I'm trying to cool it on the spending.

Congrats on your purchase! Mine says hi!

 

"Chinese parts assembled in Britain by a chap named Clyde. Cheerio!"

 

I guess I would’ve gotten a better reception here if I just saved my money and bought a quality watch with a unique and timeless design like this one. Of course, the only thing that’s missing is the “Pagani Design” logo …

 

Laugh it up - I ordered one for my wife because she loved it. Certainly not because I now have a "But you just bought a watch, too..." burning a hole in my pocket. Nope. Not at all...

 

Good for you!! I’d rather give my money to these guys who are trying to produce something creative and irreverent in a sea of Swiss-wannabes any day of the week. I think I’ve seen more hate for this watch than I did for the god awful Rolex Land Dweller!!!

 

“Creative and irreverent“
Hmmmm, I was thinking more like “Lame and too expensive”

 

Define “too expensive”

 

Should be called Studio "we charge a couple thousand for a chinese movement watch just because we're British."

 

Well, I paid $675.

 

I like their stuff, and those colors look great. Enjoy it!

 

I met Judzia (Studio Underd8g Ops Manager) at Intersect Charlotte earlier this year. Her enthusiasm for all things watches was quite infectious.

 

I think their designs are fun and reasonable priced, watch-wise, and the Unoriginal thing is funny, so I ordered an Av0cado.

And avocados are high in potassium too!

 

Nope.....

 

i'm surprised by the Studio Underdog negativity. Richard is awesome. They offer a swiss movement on the Gen 3 Salmon for 2k. Nothing wrong with the Chinese movement for the 675 dollar watch. The way they collaborate is just cool. Moser is one my favorite watchmakers. I love those two watches they did. I just got a Satory Billard, which I had not known about until the Sunflower watch. I'm a Studio Underdog fan. I don't own one, but I would.

 

You need to keep this site's demographics, and all that that entails, in mind.

 

One of the things I really don't get about our hobby is the immediate hate for items that we don't want. Like "if its not for me, then I don't think it should exist."
Studio Underdog are what, 3 years old and you want them to have more models than 3? It's not ok for them to keep reproducing the O1 in different colors? But it's literally all every brand of nearly every item does. That's how you make back your initial investments in R&D, advertising, etc. If you spend $100k on R&D and only sell 100 watches, it doesn't matter if it only cost you $1.00 to make the watch it still cost you $1000 per watch. So you want to sell as many as you can.

But that's not really my point.
The point is, the more options the better. If you don't like something, don't buy it. Treat it like a t-shirt.

 

oh and congrats to the OP on the purchase and the others who decided to add.

 

I can't make up my mind on how i feel about them. I like the series II watches, hopefully will pick one up one day

 

They are really nice looking watches. I only wish they were a tad slimmer.

 

Nice, I’ve been a fan of them for a while. Always been partial to the mint chocolate chip, just never pulled the trigger on one and the price for them second hand is stupid, $675 for a new one doesn’t seem too bad to me though.

 

I have ordered the Guacamole version but as I only submitted the order fairly late, it will be October before it arrives apparently. I already have the Watermelon and have to say, they are genuinely nice and fun watches and at least trying to do something different.

 

ordered a guac as well.

 

I wonder what their sales were on the Av0cado and Guacam0le.
