Pre-Order Borealis Medusa 500m Lugless Diver Watch

The sandwich markers are in the outer edges. The markers in middle are applied markers.

Any chance of a "No Date " version? I know someone else asked, if I missed your reply sorry.

 

[Borealis Watch Admin]

No date is possible just be aware will be a 9015 movement not a 90S5. We will also have to slim down some of the options in renders as too many options now.

Thanks, I like the fact that it might be consider. I don't think there are any bad choices in your renderings and I understand you can't please everyone.

Possibly simplify the bezel insert?
Looks very busy with all the hash marks on the dial and the bezel. Just a thought.

To each his own, but I like a full set of markers on the dial and bezel. IMO, it's not a fully functional dive watch without them.

Luv the bronze with the brown dial (could it be possible to put a brown data disc too?)

I also like the white dial with blue bezel.

I Will try to get a bronze version

Do not argue with "it's not a fully functional dive watch without them." please, because - WHO cares?
I also prefer less busy bezel, OR smaller minute markers on the bezel. But I am also OK with as it is.

No date version - I prefer that if possible, I know in that case the date wheel will be there, no problem.

I suggest to consider just one major change within design - dial index on 12 - I wish to see somenthing different than other indexes, thicker one, or triangle, or doubled index etc...

Brass - please no, use Bronze. Why? You already have shown that you can keep the price low even with bronze alloy, and... brass is too poor for 9015 movements actually. Bronze deserve 9015 or ETA and vice versa. One exception I know is zelos hammer, and yes its weird combination bronze with cheap movt, IMHO

Sorry but no brown date discs. Too much risk to damage movements by painting discs and finding a matching color on different metals used.

I think many people like, but on the end of the day almost everybody will take common version - black, blue, or brown (bronze). But who knows....
In the case you will do white dial I wish to see it with full metal bezel, in that case I will get one for sure (with a bronze version what is a must)

Flat or Domed Crystal?

 

[Borealis Watch Admin]

Crystal is flat.

Divers?

 

[phlabrooy]

That slight change to the dial minute markers has already made a huge difference, and cleaned and opened up the dial ! Definitely much better IMHO ...
Anyone here able to do a mock-up with an Orange dial, No-Date, without the fully indexed bezel minute markers ? Just to get an idea of possibilities !!!

Very close to final version taking into account some of the inputs presented.

Some of the versions will likely not be offered as too many options already specially if we add date and no date versions.

Is the pink one rose gold or bronze?

 

[PaulDecember]

So many lines...
...not sure where to look.
If you step-back from your pictures, you'll see what I mean.

 

[gabriel-dan]

I Agree, so many lines plus the bezel make the watch busy and not easy to tell time. However I love the size and the concept.

 

[deepdive]

Who will take 2 of them?

 

[cecil]

Looking forward to the white dial date version on bracelet!!!
