Sharpened the pic a bit and I think I do like the dial and hand look of this one. Got word back from them. The Proto has the date at 3 the final will have it between the 4 and 5. I would go with rubber over the SS bracelet though. Sitting on the fence right now. Just not sure about pulling the trigger yet. But they give a 7 day grace period to examine the watch which is a plus. I'll mull it over during lunch today I think. ;)

I ordered the steel bracelet, they told me the metal bracelet was very limited so, did not want to miss out like i did on OE........., now I am having second thought about the dial and hands...I kind of like the stick hand on the black dial........man that OE watch case looks awsome,.......the dial is not what I thought it would be, eitherway I missed out, but I think this may do till another ONE COMES OUT from K.....

I actually like it a lot... would rather it have crown guards though... and as far as the bracelet...  I would wear it 90% of the time on rubber or some type of strap, so the extra $$ for the bracelet is not really worth it for me.

I do however like the Korsbek more... but then again.. one with Plonguer hands the other with stick hands... seems like enough difference to own both.

I am pretty close especially at the price on rubber... with Midnight Blue and Plonguer hands with aged lume yet still C3 intensity...  I really like it...  just worried a little about the quality..

I can't decide if I like it or not. Alot of pros, some cons. I like the robust size and I really like the dial layout, I like the vintage color accents of the dial. Interesting bezel, I just wish they had put a lume pip in the triangle at 12:00.

Also I wish the case had crown guards. That crown looks like it sticks out in the open pretty far and with a case of that weight and size that crown looks like it is susceptible to a good whack if not carefull.

I'd really like to see a side view of this beast.

I managed to aquire this pic. Note this is a model with a prototype dial. Some finishing touches I would guess will be made as with any new watch in the fianl stages pre-release. The setup I'm getting is like this but on rubber with the blue dial and plongers. Date will be at the mis 4 to 5 area. The other proto we have seen shows it at 3.
