Ooops, sorry I killed the thread.
That, and all the rest...
I really do hope that the crystal is going to be a sapphire with a shape very close to the original: domed, high bevel, and clear gap between it and the bezel !
I also hope for a more conventional 20mm or 22mm lug width...but I could live well enough with the 19mm of the 6105, as long as some 19mm G10/NATOs are offered in addition of the H-link bracelet
Let's hope the "winter" is more like November/December than February/March 'cause that "T2" looks like a perfect Christmas present to myself (or birthday if its Oct./Nov. after all)!!!

i believe the crystal will be pretty much the same as the Tsunami- domed and close fitting to the bezel

Good news for the lug width...
We'll see how the crystal goes, but I'm sure Jake will have made the good decision...

I will probably say this poorly and it has already been said more eloquently by others, but here goes. To me the 6309-7040 case design is a truly inspired design that defies time like an E-type Jag. It is beautiful at all angles and "form follows function" is brought to life. If my google technique serves me I believe Mr. Tokunaga is the man responsible for gifting us with this beauty. Jake and Noah should be praised on high in the WUS community for keeping it alive in the Tsunami.
To use the car analogy again, were the 6309-7040 is the E-type of watches the 6105-8110 asymetrical masterpiece, again I believe a Mr. Tokunaga inspiration, is a Bugatti Type 57c, a Ferrari 250 that hits me in the gut with such superb, simple beauty that I can look at for hours and not tire of the pure enjoyment of looking. Woosh what a bunch of touchy feely crap, but I really feel something with these two designs. And now we get to wait like little kids counting the days till Christmas as we get to see the this beauty unfold under Jake's labor of love. I am so excited by this and glad I have you guys to share the joy of the T2 coming to life.
Sorry for the poor attempt at waxing poetic, but hey I'm an engineer and never did well in creative writing.

I would have to agree with you on that one.
