We're thrilled about “Mod-to-Order”. Our vision is to let you put any design, photo or graphic on one of our watches - fully custom, modular style for all. And after a few years in business... we're close. Mod-to-Order is for you, and can only happen with your help.

WHAT IS A MOD?
This is a Modify Watch (aka a “Mod”). We call our watches Mods because they are modular: our mix-and-match faces and straps allow you to create any look you want. Each Mod also has a name (say “hi”).

Then we produce our Mods overseas, and that means high minimums (we need to manufacture at least 300 of each design), long lead times and huge costs which makes one-off customization impossible.

WHY MOD-TO-ORDER?
Our vision is not to build our designs... it's to let all ModiFamily members design the watch of their dreams. We're calling it “Mod-to-Order” - our super clever take on “made-to-order”. We want to help anyone who wants to design a fully custom / bespoke / one-of-a-kind / personalized watch to do just that.I was extremely excited to be able to create two of my own designs:
WHAT WILL WE DO WITH $50,000?
We’ve been planning Mod-to-Order for quite some time (18 months to be exact). We need $50,000 to turn our vision into reality, but can only get there with your support!The funds raised from this campaign will go towards:
- Component parts: Watches aren’t made out of thin air... yet. Until that day comes, we’ll need to source all of our components for Mod-to-Order -- plenty of scratch-resistant cases, water-tight seals, watch hands and of course high-quality movements, which is industry lingo for "the things that keep ‘em tickin’”
- A new website: 10001010101010101. Sorry, that was a technical joke. For us to put your designs on a watch, we need to make it easy for you to send us those designs.
- Printing capability: We’re not talking about hand-painted designs or your run-of-the-mill desk jet; we’ll need a commercial-grade, high-resolution printer to make your watches pristine! We’ve been testing all types of printers to varying degrees of success, and need to figure out the best, most cost-effective way to do this.
- Expanded space for assembly: Assembling these bad boys the right way isn’t easy. We’ll need a clean space that’s dust free (aka nowhere near Aaron's desk).
- Finally, we’ll be hiring folks in the U.S. for printing / assembly. We’ve created 8 full-time jobs so far, and are excited to expand our reach.
