Looks Fantastic thus far... Steve is the bezel goofy for some reason or are you hiding it for a surprise later?

this is just a sample from the factory making the case, it has generic sterile parts in it (dial, hands, bezel, movement). we don't have our dials complete yet, or the bezel, so this case doesn't have the right parts in it. so I didn't want to confuse anyone, although you can kind of see the bezel.

I will show the real sample when it is complete.

I like the first strap but the second strap just does not cut it....sorry. The design does not flow very well and it seems to distract from the watch.  I hope the first strap can fit a 7.5 wrist.

Maybe you can change the second strap design????Thumbsup3.gif

I love that strap B - in fact, I'm a bit sorry to admit, it's the one I picked out for our new Model Q, as well!


It is made by the Italian company that makes NBR natural "Vanilla Smelling" Rubber. it is not a Benarus design, but it is a superior material to Silicone rubber, and we have had a heck of a time finding more than 1 manufacturer and no luck finding anyone to make our own custom molds... not yet, still searching. Darkman you should use it with your design, like I said, it is not our creation. -steve

Strap A measures 7 inches on the inside when I put the tang in the middle hole. I would go with strap B if you are above 7. Here is a pic of the inside of Strap A, it has a nice texture.

Wow, the PVD case makes you want one. I like the way this is looking; though I am not sure if I want the quartz or the automatic. Ah, the things that I need to think about.:shock:cat28.gif

Wow, the case is awesome to look at and I prefer strap 'A" with it.  I can't wait to see how this version comes along because it's off to a great start.  hand6.gifhand6.gif

Looks great!  I've recently developed a real appreciation for PVD.  I would opt for strap A.

Strap A would be my choice too but I like the holes and buckle combo in Strap B, so Strap A with the buckles and holes from Strap B would be the winner for me
