H2O ORCA - THINNER - SHORTER - HARDER

[Mark McK]

Clemens, As has been said several time before, great concept. I find the mono very different in a great way! Will have to try one out when they come available. Am waiting for the prototype picts and preorder info. Regards, Mark

Clemens when do you expect to have the first prototype built and will it be built prior to pre orders being taken.....thanks

The tooling for the 5 outer cases and the inner case has already started and Iīm expecting the protypes in less than 2 months. The pre-order will start earlier and ends when the limited QTY for the pre-order has been reached. This early pre-order start will ensure that the QTY for each outer case could be adjusted accordingly the expected order income.

Of course there will be a great incentive for placing the pre-order.

Hi Mark, yes, the Mono is different, but will look really great, different, unique and timeless. Itīs also a good candidate for a DLC coating. Later!

As of right now this thread has 5321 hits! I think 1000 of them are mine.

I don't know about the rest of you guys but I am having a tough time deciding on which case and dial combo to settle on. Just when I think I know which one, one of the others starts looking just as good.

Clemens, you know you have something REALLY good when there are so many good choices.

I have the bug so bad Demo I am looking for a Kalmar to tide move over cause the wait is gonna kill me. Orginally I wanted the dive but since I am going to get a Kalmar I am going to do the dress version.
Actually considering selling my PO XL to fund two Kalmars !

Maybe I expressed wrongly: Letīs say they are 3D dials. Normally the standard 2824 dials are 0.40mm in thichness. We constructed the watch case to be able to use dials with 0.80mm thickness. Maybe the following images from my CAD program show more clearly the 3D profile of the dials. Of course the color is not correct in the CAD files:

Attachment 667985
Attachment 667987
Attachment 667988



We will inform the pricing the the maybe more important package content when we start the pre-order in Mid of April.

Looks like only second dial down is "sandwich". Correct?

[Bigjamesdean]

Yes only the one is a sandwhich although all are multi layer just in different ways.

Any mention of Lug width for straps?

I couldnīt had explained that better!

The lug width of all H2O watches, the ORCA and Kalmar series, is 24mm.
