    I once watched a watchmaker refinish a brushed case using a 2 step process: the first was the brushed finish with the case held in a jig for alignment of the brush marks. Then he did a very light polish by hand over the top of the new brushing: it came out amazing, like a glow was imparted to the brushed surfaces.

    A++ would read again.

    That isofrane with bronze buckle looks killer. Definitely the strap I will be putting on mine. I didn't receive an email confirmation for serial # but I couldn't really care either way, just want the watch. The anticipation is killer, especially with all these amazing photos.

    I sure hope that green dial gave you some ideas! Offer that dial color and I might change my order once again!

    You know what Roland? I think your two Oliviers definitely hold their own aesthetically in the pics above. But damn, that 382 sure is a work of art.

    I wish you had released the Olivier before I picked up my Magrette Regattare Bronze! I'm not sure I can justify 2 bronze watches in the collection...but you never know.

    You did such a great job with the bronze buckles recently and I wish you all the very best with Olivier Watches.

    Cheers!

    Hey Spoonsey!

    Thanks for the kind words, compliments from other watch lovers mean the most! Happy to hear you are enjoying the buckles, and hope that you'll get an Olivier to go side by side with your Magrette. You've got two buckles, and one watch ;) dont let the buckle be lonely!

    Re: Introducing Olivier Watches & the Olivier Bronze Diver!

    Hmmmmm...I am really liking the blue dial Miyota Roland. Any chance of a pic of the blue dial version with the all bronze bezel? I couldn't find one here or on your website.

    I also wonder how the blue dial version would go with a blue Isofrane?

    I don't have any blue dial watches in my collection so maybe that can be my justification!

    Thanks for the offer but I'll just take a leftover serial number. Not entirely worried with getting anything in particular. Or come up with something creative if you wish. I just want the damn thing on my wrist already (patience is not a virtue, it's people I treat)
