I know that everyone is anxiously waiting for news on the Moray production and shipping. Since 3T is a forum that you are able to follow the watch from concept through to shipping, you also get to experience the delays. I think most companies would just not let the public know about the design, production, and details that have to be resolved, so this delay is just part of the process that you get to experience.

Production has started this week, but after testing the samples, Ralf and I decided that the threaded lug bar with the matching threads inside the case lug would be problematic over the long term life of the watch. We decided to change the lug bar to be like the Sea Devil with the screws on the outside and no threads on the case. I do not have a picture yet of how this looks, but it is easy to imagine. This is a better system for the bracelet and will keep people from stripping the threads on the inside of the case and ruining their watch.

as mentioned at the top, production is starting this week, but there is not a specific date that I can say as to when your watch will ship, Ralf and I are still talking about the shipping details.

Thank you for your patience, in the future we will probably add time for delays so we are not rushed because the customers have an expectation that we cannot meet. Because we did not rush this production to be at the end of June, you will have a better watch in the end.
