It is possible to have black date wheel at 3 with custom order at Miyota and increased price.

Some info that I need to add. I have just checked with factory and Miyota and Miyota does not supply a date at 6 o'clock with black wheel, only white wheel and black font. http://miyotamovement.com/pdf/mechanical_cv.pdf So take this into account. If we go with date at 6 I will have to check...

Yes, we are likely to drop the DLC option as would also require a DLC mesh.

Be aware we will have drilled lugs so likely top version or would be hard to drill lugs securely.

Welcome to forum!

There is going to be a date and no date versions. Decision is only if date at 3 or 6.

We have now a poll so you can choose which date version to produce. Date at 3 or at 6 o'clock. Poll closes in 5 days. Be sure to visit and vote at http://www.borealiswatchforum.com/threads/poll-borealis-estoril-300-date-at-3-or-6-oclock.1434/

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE VOTING WITH A DATE AT 6 O'CLOCK MIYOTA ONLY PRODUCES MOVEMENT WITH WHITE DISC, BLACK FONT AND DELIVERY TIMES ARE LONGER TOO. There was a suggestion from forum members for the Borealis Estoril 300 to feature a date at 6 o'clock instead of 3 o'clock making dial...

Bracelet will taper from 24mm to 22mm. Problem with tapering from 24mm to 20mm is that then it won't be easy to ajdust bracelet and people with small wrists will complain (something that happened with the Scorpionfish). With a 24mm bracelet tapering to 22mm all 22mm links can have screws and...

It is doable though price increases a little bit as factory has to reprint date wheels or order in advance from Miyota. But the question is won't we be departing from the theme?

We are working out in some other renders of the Seadog to see if watch can be further improved. All inputs are much appreciated as this is our biggest project ever.

The Seadog is a very much improved Seafarer with considerably better specs. We reduced lug to lug from 55 to 53mm and case also sits better on wrist and the bracelet end link also accommodates better smaller wrists. You can not compare crown of the Scorpionfish to the one in the Seadog as the...

Bracelet will taper from 24mm to 22mm and there will be a HEV at 9 o'clock. We are working on 3D renders of the watch.

Just be prepared to pay a little extra in project as economies of scale are what makes costs go down. By having so many choices factory will slap us with increased costs as basically they will need 2 dial molds for the layered lume.

You are right Pakz it will not make much harm. I also speak Chinese Mandarin and Jiu Ba Jiu does not sound bad either. Can sound similar to Forever Wealthy Forever or Eternal Prosper Eternal so I think with solution you propose we kill two birds with a stone, well done!

So we should end up having 2 dials and date/no date version making a total of 4 variants not considering the DLC. Be aware this will increase costs and complexity of project.

I see your point but 3988 has a much better appeal to Asian customers has sounds a lot to San Jiu Ba Ba which sounds like Eternally Prosperous the 988

We very much prefer Miyota 9015.

We agree to disagree in those points. Finish of the Scorpionfish is superb and for the record was sold almost at cost price with the forum discount. You won't find any other watch with that finish, specs and price. As for the Seadog is built from ground up and dial is not printed but with...
