    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    Suggestion... What about a "cutting tool" to offer 22mm wide staps tapered to 20mm?

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    I totally agree with Maria (y) Maria, is there a chance we can have a isometric or near-so 3d render? Also maybe a screenshot of the 3d model without render. Just to see clearly the case shape. Also if blue colour issue is still open I'd suggest a dark blue like the one of the prometheus. Or...

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    I think the Blue color issue must be cleared before preorder. Can you post a clear dial sample or the color reference you discussed with the supplier? Or is there a watch on the market we can look at as reference? Edit: like this? Edit2: is there a chance to have an extra discount paying the...

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    If I well remember you said prototype should be ready in January You already have scheduled production and delivery after samples validation? When you expect we'll have the Estorils on our wrist?

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    That's great Maria! As you stated you have all the costs, so I think you're now working on the product pricing. By now can you give us a sale price indication?

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    So if I undestand you have many additional costs. Custom tube manufacturing (tool) with dedicated process setup and CNC machining with low numbers (so machines setup cost will be high related to quantities). Just to have a full view on the process... the bezel is later printed on the backside...

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    I think a different choice would be a nonsense. I'd go straight with +50$ for it! You know how these sapphire bezels are machined? Are they made by CNC from a full sapphire disc? The only informations I found on sapphire glass manufacturing is smartphone related: EDIT: Just checked with...

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    Great you deepen all these technical detail with your suppliers (y). This shows a lot of interest and the will to further develop your products beyond commercial intents ;)... and that's not so common in watch industry :D. Elasticity can be achieved by using empty core orings (third in...

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    Maybe one day you'll go for FEP sealing orings. I think no one is using them on watches by now. These are Viton or Silicon OR encapsulaterd in a Teflon (PTFE) skin. Check properties and you will easiliy understand that such a sealing will almost "last forever". Operative temperature range...

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    Was 13mm at top of acrylic domed glass? My dream (but it's fully OT...even if I hope you'll pick up this idea...) is to have a diver around 10mm thickness and 39-40mm diameter...with an inner rotating bezel... maybe handwound :-)

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    12.5 is quite good! I'd love a 11.5mm but on a 300m automatic watch I think it's quite hard... Waiting for final details!

    Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

    I really like the blue dial but I think I'd go for the black one. Just one question. The "Estoril" on the dial is to be aligned with the "Seamaster"? I think I'd prefer to remove it and have at 6 "Automatic" with "300m" below. Also about the bezel I think dots under the numbers are very useful...
