The dart dial Remora is an absolute masterpiece imo!....if I were to use one word to describe this watch it would be "mesmorizing"
...the gloss black dial and finely etched ceramic bezel are amazing and while indoors appear to be black but once outdoors the bezel is mirror-like and blends beautifully against the grey blasted finish I chose which in itself is awesome!
...The teal blue markers on the dial,pip and bezel are crisp and easily read.Bezel action is smooth as is the operation of the new Miyota 9015 which is undoubtedly going to be a movement we will be seeing much of this year.Lume is Benarus lume which is always exceptional and above average imho.
...The Remora arrived on a sweet Italian rubber and a mesh as well,packaged neatly in one of the Benarus watch cases which are always a treat.
...I already had a sized blasted mesh from a previous purchase and it went on with ease and I find it to be one of the best mesh available.
...Even under grey skies and falling snow the Remora is a Bullseye!....Kudos to Steve & Ralf for once again creating a truly amazing watch!

Agree with you impressions of this great piece from the boys at Benarus!  It is truly a stunner...I hope to get some pics of my Brushed Blue Dart Remora later today or tomorrow.

A well built and unique looking piece all the way around!

I must agree with everything you said here.  Just received my orange lume dart dial yesterday and I can't take my eyes off of it.  This is a terrific watch and was well worth the wait.

Has a good looking face and nice blasted surface but I don't really hook on it...
The Miyota isn't making it more tempting for me either.
Anyway: Have fun with this newcomer Oscar!

TY Guys!...as much of a Swiss movement snob that I have been I can say that in the past couple years the Miyotas I own have been as accurate as many of my eta based watches....although the new Miyota 9015 is still in the proving stages it is a long awaited improvement to me due to the hacking feature and beat rate...the Remora over 24hrs is at about +5 sec. and it runs very smooth and winds equally as smooth...will the 9015 replace the eta...doubtful but it is a nice option imo.
....The Remoras gloss black dial,hands and mirror-like bezel(one of the nicest ceramic bezels I have seen) are amazing ...the overall design is awesome and plays larger than the 42mm it is imho and a watch I would recommend to all WIS.
