Late last year Xetum announced the launch of their newest collection California designed timepieces. Joining the Xetum family is the Tyndall collection and the Stinson collection- both which happen to be named after famous California mounts.
Xetum was founded by California resident Jeffery Kuo. Mr. Kuo believes that watches have become too bulky, flamboyant, and entirely overpriced over this years. With Xetum, Jeffery Kuo gives costumers an happy medium of style, design, material and pricing.
The Tydall (named after Mount Tyndall)-simple and elegant, has a Swiss made ETA 2824-2 elaborate-grade automatic movement with 27 jewels, an hour, minute and second-hand movement, date indicator and 42 hour power reserve. Additional characteristics of The Tydall include a 316L stainless steel case, and tanned leather strap with inner lining of Italian cork. The Tyndal comes in colors Black and Off-White .
The Stinson (named after Stinson Beach) is a modern timepiece that has a Swiss made ETA 2824-2 automatic movement with 25 jewels, water resistant case, and a pushbutton-release stainless steel butterfly clasp with engraved Xetum logo. The Stinson product comes in colors black, off-white and brown dial.
