Working on some ideas for a potential refresh of my design studio identity. Love our current logo (courtesy Pat Dryburgh, which you can see at http://unrml.com/), but can't help feeling Gotham-in-a-circle has become a bit too ubiquitous.
What think you folks of this direction?
@Pat Dryburgh I'll give that a shot. I actually have a bunch of different crest ideas but this one was sticking out to me — before being accompanied by the wordmark. Hadn't tried without anything in the crest though!

I feel this mark would be stronger if you dropped the letters contained in the icon. Just leave the icon and the serif word-mark.

Someone on Twitter just said the letters in the crest look like a face. Which I can see now that I squint. Looks like an angry transformer‽ Hah

The first of your alternatives is the strongest, in my opinion.
