WOW! 1st impressions are just that!...a bit overcast here so pics are Q&D....incredible design and craftsmanship in a watch at this price!hand6.gif The Fit and Finish is impecable on the matt grey blasted case and the dial work /lume is phenominal!....at 47mm by 18.25mm thick depending on how you measure it fits like a glove due to the new rubber strap with solid rubber endlinks which swivel at the hip and dual locking divers deployant which is easily sized and can also be micro sized at the buckle is extremely comfortable...caseback is Awesome as are the smooth ratcheting bezel and locking crown with Orsa logo...the 5mm thick sapphire crystal is unbelieveable and crystal clear...new pacakaging is equally as impressive and I will leave that as a suprise for everyone!.....if you haven't ordered one and if any are left get on the Bus!....more pics and a detailed review to follow once I get home!...TY Berg you really outdid yourself on this one...a true Monstrum!![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

One of the big disadvantages to living in London is I get to see you all enjoying your watches while I wait....... :( Looks great in the pictures though guys!! Can't wait for the postman to bring me mine! By the way, what's the deal with the bracelet? I saw Berg's post saing they would be another month or two, but are there any pics, and what's the cost? Or are they included in the price we've paid? Rich |
|||||||||

sigsauer 3T WIS

Toshi, but think of all the cuban cigars you can smoke over there! Anyway the SS bracelet is a seperate cost item. The watch alone is worth much more than we paid for it. I hear the black band is very cool. regards Tom |

Toshi 3T WIS

I agree the watch is well priced, and I expected the ss bracelet to be a seperate order (and cost) item, but I can't see anywhere that states what they will cost, and shows pictures. Any ideas? Rich |
|||||||||

Eric L. 3T WIS

There is no thread with costs or actual real life pictures of the bracelet yet as the bracelet has not been manufactured yet. There was a thread where a vote was held on the design of the bracelet though, but those were based on drawings, not photos. Last edited on Fri Nov 16th, 2007 08:09 am by Eric L. |

Looks great. Hope I haved missed mine. I guess Berg would email it it goes back to him. If it fits through a 2" x 12 slot I guess the mail man could leave it in the box. Love that blue. |

Berg, it arrived at last and you were right, being a bracelet kind of guy, it does look OK on the Sand Blasted 22 mm Watchadoo. (Still awaiting your custom bracelet for this beauty!!). On another note, siting in my computer room and moving my arm, yes I can hear the movement but there is no reason to return this beauty!! Thanks again and I await your further masterpieces!!

WOW is my reaction- I am so happy BERG did go the way of so many an offer a more expensive (than angler) but instead gave us a fun, wearable 300 dollar watch and it is awesome! I love the color of blue and the size- and I too cannot wait for the bracelet and hope that doesnt break the bank :) good lord cannot wait for the quartz either- these are more for fun so I do not worry about the movement as I know BERG wouldnt steer us into something pittiful :)cool10.gif |

Mine made it today. Martin out did himself with this. Will be glad when I am able to size it and try it on. What a beauty. |

Yes he sure did and the sizing was a snap too, easy pins are great very comfortable on the wrist, maybe a better feel than the angler I think! |
