This sounds amazing. Personally I'd love to see a cushion case or something like a Panerai submersible styled case. Lets get a bronzo or brushed stainless.

Bronze/brass with green or brown dial is awesome!
I think 12h to 15 minutes red lume will be great too!
You know, I was looking for mechanical, two tone, green bezel/dial affordable watch, but I found no watch like this... maybe you can launch one!

44mm diameter cushion case with a 24mm lug width. Miyota 9015 movement with a screw in crown.
Domed sapphire crystal with ceramic dark green bezel and a flat black dial with bronze indexes and bronze vintage hands.
And a Shark mesh bracelet.
Yummy;)

That is a great idea, someone like the Helberg CH6 will looks cool, but not exactly the same:)

As long as its not Bronze. Every other micro is doing Bronze/Brass and I think Borealis can do far better by sticking to their basics for now. Maybe the model after this forum watch could be bronze.

I also like stainless steel or titanium more as Bronze or Brass which you can find more and more out there:)

We still have plenty of time to think of this as at the moment forum is small though I am confident will grow with time. Most may not be aware but it is getting harder and harder to make small projects as factories nowadays won't easily accept an order of 300 watches (their sweet spot now is 500 pcs) so you can imagine how impossible will be to do a run of 100 watches.

This unless we can work with an existing model of ours and changing either finish (Black DLC, other coatings, dial and so on).

Plus the cost of doing such a limited run would increase costs. Modifying an existing design would probably be the best way to go from all perspectives!

The next watch (not necessarily a watch purely for forum members) I'd like to see Borealis release is something akin to the Rolex Explorer. I think that style of watch would work a treat given the Borealis treatment :) I'd buy such a watch in a heartbeat!

When/if the time comes I'd love to jump on that boat. I know the latest bits of Borealis news brought me here. I'm sure many more because of it too.

..my concern its the size of the watch, i would want a model with same thickness BUT @ 46mm size :love::love: with a swiss made engine - ETA ... Im shure Borealis can do least the size & even if the price will be lill bit higher^^ (y)(y)(y)
