    Lack of activity

    Hello , I think that I am NOT the only one here seeing the lack of activity in the forum. For example, after Adraga / ScorpionFish release there was a lot of silence here. Not even a thead announcing the Olisipo, or the new Cascais, for example.... (and there could have been discussion around...

    Pre-Order Borealis Navale

    Yep, I knew you will get a defensive position.... fast & soon (which is very understandable because you represent/produce them) I do like the watches in general (maybe a bit on a classier side) and the lines wrote above were just meant to share my thoughts on this product (as anyone else on this...

    Pre-Order Borealis Navale

    Yep. I got the same model variant as you. But I'm not very impressed. The good parts: - miyota movement is very quiet in this bronze "cage" - also runs pretty accurate. - confortabile & easy to operate unidirectional bezel - extremely well executed date window (almost invisible) who blends...

    10 Year Anniversary: Prometheus Eagle Ray Diver Watch

    THAT was exactly my first thought AFTER noticing the flaws. But I was thinking : "why should I be the moody/picky guy to bring this request up?". But now I am glad to see that I'm not the only one thinking this way. And, YES, it will be a right thing to receive NEW proper casebacks. Nobody can...

    10 Year Anniversary: Prometheus Eagle Ray Diver Watch

    With all due respect, I think this "story" about water proof testing was invented just to cover the negligence regarding to 500m written on the caseback. (that's my feeling)..

    10 Year Anniversary: Prometheus Eagle Ray Diver Watch

    I received mine today (Meteorite version). The watch is great (finishing, dial and.. oh boy.. lume) but it have two major downsides for me : 1. Bezel is EXTREMELY HARD to operate (lack of grip because bezel edge is sharpen). I can hardly operate it with 2 hands and my fingers are just starting...

    Pre-Order Borealis Navale

    :unsure: After seeing this, a question puzzles my mind. The reviewer just mentioned it's heavy.. But how heavy this watch really is? :rolleyes:

    Pre-Order Borealis Navale

    I think it's about how deep is the lumed surface on the watch 3D geometry. Its obvious that the lume on the sandwich dial (farest from the eye) wil look a bit dark than the one applied on hour/minute hand (which is closer to the eye) Here's a fresh photo of the blue dial version... And yes...

    Pre-Order Borealis Navale

    The bezel is only PVD? NO other protection? For me this is a deal breaker, since the PVD will wear away in time. I know the PVD was chosen to (maybe?) mentain the overall mate look ... BUT I was hoping for something stronger such Sapphire or ceramic. At least a layer. Not just bare PVD...
