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...
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...
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?
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?
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...
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...
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...
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...
due to the interest of many of us o_O I think Maria could advice a pre-order price considering the highest expected. So we can reload our paypal in time :cool:
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 :-)
Hi Maria,
Is there a chance to have an idea for the pre-order date/period?
One day... one week... one month...
Just to relax before weekend :D
You also have an idea of ow many pcs for each version will be available?
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...
