    Pre-Order Borealis Seafarer II 4000m Automatic Diver Watch

    Yeah, I don't see the Citizen connection really, more like a Super SKX007/009, on steroids ! It'll be big, but then again, not as big, especially L2L as the Seafarer at 53mm v 56mm. If it's more curved down lugs it might be OK, I guess. Will need to see more renders .... But, yes, it does grow...

    Pre-Order Borealis Seafarer II 4000m Automatic Diver Watch

    HaHaHa ..... I thought that I was seeing things, when the thread heading suddenly changed from 4000m ........... Maybe that's why the DSSD is only rated to 3900m ! Yes, the number 4 might be a problem to the superstisious !!! Regards,

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    Yeah, that was me ..... After looking at it for a really long time, still feel we need to use the rounded 3 on the bezel. And as I suggested earlier, to drop that unnecessary m, just making it Estoril 300, also in keeping with the original SM 300. Other than that, all is great ! I really love...

    Mentioned about the Estoril 300 on the WUS dive watches forum ...... Seems to have generated some interest !!! Also just found out about the Sea Dog ...... Regards,

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    Yes, Maria, I know there are 2 types of font for the bezel numbers, as shown, but maybe it's just me, but I definitely prefer the rounded "3". The other one looks aftermarket !!! So retaining the size of original, 41.5mm, with 20mm lugs, will the L2L be 49mm ? Didn't see that mentioned anywhere...

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    #Pakz's wrist shot picture of that SM300 is really fantastic ! So will you replace the 3 in the 30 at 6, with similar font as the 3 on the dial ? Would somehow look better, IMHO .... And how about dropping the "m" in 300m ? Just have Estoril 300 ? Great that there will be a choice of date/no...

    Well, I vote no date, too. Will look more balanced with that lovely 3 6 9 marine dial ! Regards,

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    Looking better everyday, Maria ! Everything looks good so far, and especially love the bezel side view and the fact that it will have drilled lugs .... Only thing out is the 3 in the 30 in bezel font. Looks too hard and stiff ! Should be similar to the 3 on the dial. So will there be a date or...

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    42mm would be great, but I guess 41.5mm is close enough. At least it won't be 40mm .... :) Couldn't the lugs be 22mm, though ? Domed sapphire is great. Ceramic lumed bezel would be fine too, I think..... would it be cheaper than sapphire ? Sword hands are great. I too, don't think a bracelet is...

    Pre-Order Poll: Choose the version for our next project : Borealis Scorpionfish

    Have been wearing my Scorpionfish 24/7 for the last two weeks straight. No issues at all. Still can't stop looking at it ! The lume on the hour hand was a bit weak in comparison to all the other lume, minute hand, indices, and bezel, etc, but have since gotten used to it. It lasts and is visible...

    Pre-Order Poll: Choose the version for our next project : Borealis Scorpionfish

    Received my black plongeur today. It's fantastic quality. Big congrats to Maria. The hex tool is in a separate very small packet, not packed in the box. I believe many might have missed it, and perhaps tossed it out. Anyway, my included tool was not very useful as it could not engage the screw...

    Pre-Order Poll: Choose the version for our next project : Borealis Scorpionfish

    Welcome, guys. Information is for sharing, right ? I did try to find out how many of each version would be produced, but didn't manage to get an answer for that. I guess they will produce as the demand for each version. Perhaps Maria could answer if there are any more blacl dial, modern hands to...

    Your thoughts on the new ISASWISS 8371 Quartz Chronograph Movement

    As mentioned, quartz watches, especially chronos do have their place. Most of us here no doubt prefer auto movements. I have not had very good experiences with ISA movements previously. I had two ISA powered chronos some years ago. Having said that, this new movement might be a lot better from...
