Hello everyone,
We are thrilled to bring you the latest updates on production and model assembly this Tuesday, October 10. We are pleased to announce that the previously mentioned dates and schedules, as outlined in article #10, remain unchanged at this time.
First feedback on the quartz collection
The entire Quartz collection has been successfully shipped. Models designated for the EU have already been received, and the remaining ones are currently en route for international shipping.
The final model, number 80, was carefully packed on October 3 and sent to the attention of Sarosh, backer n°286.
Thank you very much for your exceptionally positive initial feedback and publications! We encourage you to share your photos and provide us with your thoughts on the inaugural Model No. 51 - we'd love to read your feedback =)
Delivery of the Origin automatic series
As stated in News #10, the assembly of the Origine automatic series commenced on Monday, October 3. The collection is slated to be finalized by the week's end, on October 13.
A trip is then planned for Monday, October 16, which will mark the start of the first shipments of the collection.
Kickstarter backers should have received an email to verify their shipping address. If you haven't received this email, please reach out to us at contact@mun-watches.com.
Assembly of the Creator Series
As reported in our last news item #10, on Thursday October 5 we headed to Switzerland to pick up the realistic moon disks from the Creators series. These underwent a brand-new development this summer to refine the realism of the Milky Way. The final rendering is beyond our expectations, with a sky of unprecedented detail.
In this regard, we interviewed Howel, R&D manager at AJS, in charge of developing the disk and oscillating mass for Mu:n. We are delighted to share this interview with you, as well as an article detailing the manufacturing secrets behind these two exceptional timepieces.

Assembly of the collection and its 300 numbered pieces will begin in mid-week. This final phase of assembly and testing will take around 10 to 15 days.
We'll keep you informed as soon as we know the exact date of the first deliveries. For the time being, therefore, we're keeping to the schedule set out in our last news item #10.
