I would like to know how many grey dials, in three hands, then black,
Then chronographs if possible. My grey three hand model is # 20.

We made 30 of 3-hand model and 10 chronographs.

The black and grey dials make up the numbers 1-30

We are planning 30 more 3 hand models for the near future.

 But... but they're different they make watches that they care about and in limited editions (buy which I mean, "you got screwed over, son."

But they ARE limited editions just so you know.

P.S: Enjoy those "exclusive casebacks and dials"


Hi, can you break this down a bit and explain it. Sorry I don't understand this post. I would like to reply, but I don't know what it means yet. Thanks. - Steve

I don't know about you, but I am VERY happy that Benarus is making more editions of the Moray, Remora, and Megalodon watches. I didn't get a chance to purchase watches from the first editions, not get my pick of the seconds...

If you are buying these watches as an "investment," you might want to go for something older...or just be happy with the watch you got, and put it away in a safe for 25-50 years. These watches are for watch lovers. I wear EVERY single watch I own, they get scratches...they let me know what time it is in the middle of the night.

I own a few of these watches, and let me say this, about the Bronze Moray Dart I just received from Steve... I ordered the "top" grade movement, which I am very happy for... This watch is a dream. To get a watch of this quality, impeccable design, and with this movement...for this price??? UNHEARD OF.bravo.gif

Steve,this newton13 is a troll who decided to make several posts in various brand forums this morning,all of which equaled his mental capacity...which is that of a monkey on crack,and possibly why it can not be understood....I hope I haven't offended any monkeys who may be reading this!dog smile.gif

newton13 should not be mistaken for another member in great standing who goes by Newton.

If making money was our goal we would not make 30 Ti47 watches. We made them because we wanted to, the cases had to be made 1 at a time by hand and finished by hand. The work is far more involved than the pay. We are introducing 2 new case designs this year that we will keep secret until finished.

As for Raven, Jeff the watchdude is actually ex military. We are making a classic design at an affordable price, unlike the other homage. Jeff came to us because of the quality of Benarus watches. We are also working on new designs for Raven that are not homage but new designs that we have been working on for the last few months.

Please be more specific about your complaint instead of speaking in riddles.

Let him post. I have nothing to be afraid of. I am proud of Benarus and Ralf, and all we have done.

Steve, like I said Benarus watch quality is top notch. I like my watches and I can not wait for the future to see what Benarus and Raven will produce.
I did not understand anything Newton 13 was writing about.
