@sapcmc will the pieces be individually numbered? I pre-ordered a green dial, fixed bezel

Hello,
can you explain to us, on the Navale Rotating bezel why the inside color of the watch hands have a white color, and the indexes dial have an egg yolk color, while you use the same C3X1 lume ?
thanks a lot

Yes that is due to exposure. On human eye not noticeable.

 

[TOURNIAYRE]

That's good news, for me anyway.
I'll probably go for the blue dial then with rotating bezel

sorry to insist, but do you confirm me is due to exposure.
So, hour and minutes hands are the same colours of indexes dial.
because in the picture below, we have the same angle of view, and the hands and indexes have a different color

if I could have a definitive answer to the sight of this picture, I could calmly go to the act of purchase

Thanks

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, there are very-very slight differences. BUT if you can't live with this, go get a Panerai 

 

[TOURNIAYRE]

Of course Ovidius, I can live with that, but some brands like Marina Militaire (Parnis) can do it, why won't Borealis do it even though the Parnis are worth less than $150.
it's just a question, don't bother to take the fly.

It is impossible to be same color after exciting lume with light. The sandwich dial cutout will make the shader areas to have the lume to start glowing. It is physics ....

video review of the Borealis Navale

 

[ovidius]

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

Bronze is heavier than stainless steel . Watch sits comfortably on wrist as no bracelet to increase weight.
