    Pretty please, do a Marine or Aviation watch :)

    This is an open letter to Maria but feedback/thoughts from others are welcome. I'm loving what Borealis has been doing lately - with the Scorpionfish, then the Batial, Estoril and SF2, and now the Bull Shark, you're making some awesome dive watches. However, they are all dive watches. I'm a...

    New Vulcanised Rubber Straps

    Hi, Rather than cluttering up the watch preorder threads : Maria, do you have any design pictures of the new vulcanised rubber straps coming? So far my understanding is black-only, 22mm, but no specifics on design. Cheers!
