Pre-Order Borealis Estoril 300m Automatic

[Itsonlytime]

Absolutely Against changing date wheels, I look forward to what was designed, and what I ordered. And Thank You Maria for staying on top of the project, keeping us updated, not cutting corners, and taking the proper amount of time to provide a quality, properly checked out timepiece. I am most happy to wait, I know from my past Borealis orders, it will be well worth it.

Don't know if the black date wheel has longer lead time or not, but if watch has no date then color of date wheel does not matter? Regardless, project is on schedule and meeting all expectations and I am ok waiting impatiently for delivery.

 

[Borealis Watch Admin]

Non date versions can come with black or white wheel as that is not problematic. However we want to deliver all versions at same time.

Regardless of that we are on schedule for July as mentioned from beginning of pre-order.

Pulled the trigger on a Estoril black with Arabic numerals, no date.

Love the look of this watch.

3rd watch from Borealis.

Great watches and good customer service.

And as others have said, the long wait begins.....

Maria - you said previously that "We have received yesterday samples of the Borealis Estoril 300. Some small refinements to be made mainly in bezel action and crown action but aside from that samples are looking good." Now that these parts have been manufactured for the actual production run, I presume you are happy now with the refinements the factory made with the bezel and crown actions? I'm sure you are, I suppose really I'm just curious what those initial small problems were?

Many thanks and appreciate you keeping us informed on the progress.

Please read posts of the prototype to be elucidated. It was mainly bezel action and crown that are now solved.

I originally ordered a Black Estoril Big Triangle Date, I have changed my mind and now wish to change the order to a Black Arabic Date. I have sent several emails regarding this, but havent recieved any response???

The black, Arabic date was the first model to sell out so maybe it was too late to chnage the order?

We reply to all emails we receive. Please have a look at your spam folder. Also Arabic Numbers Black Date is sold out so not possible to change.

OK then, the Big Triangle date it is.

Hi Maria, getting close now. Do you have any updates on production/testing for us?
Any new pics would be hugely appreciated!
Cheers.

 

[Boatswain]

I agree any little bit to help sustain us would be great. Even if it is an old prototype photo that we just haven't seen before. Still, July is closer than it was yesterday!

 

[Borealis Watch Admin]

No news is good news. We are expected to receive movements early June. Assembly will start afterwards.

 

[Boatswain]

Thanks Maria! I appreciate the "No news, is good news" update.

Boy its going to be a handsome piece! Cant wait!

At last, the long and painful wait will be over soon!

Do you guys think this would look best on a polished or satin mesh strap?

 

[Boatswain]

I choose polished after looking at a lot of pics of the original omega. There are a lot of polished aspects to the case. Also I reckoned it's easy to turn a polished mesh to a satin if needed. You could even just brush one side so it's reversible. I went with the strapcode reform after too much research

I'm in for a blue arabic no date.
