BTW, for anyone who is making a reservation, just a heads up that my follow up email ended up in the junk mail filter (hotmail). So if you don't hear back, give that a check.

The first thing I noticed was the Sinn inspiration... Not a bad thing at all!

It's refreshing to see a low priced diver from a boutique, especially one with 500m WR and is adjusted to 6 positions. When I clicked the link, I fully expected to see a price of $1,200+.

I just love the brushed and PVD versions (of course, if you release anything in PVD these days, it will sell quickly ).

Having the crown at 10 is awesome. I love when watch companies try to buck the trends a bit.

Nice job Hexa! I can't wait to see some wristshots!


Edit: Also, that bracelet is a solid choice. Looks great together with the case.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We are seeing a small percentage of reservations remain unconfirmed and suspect that there might be issues with some users' firewalls, etc - not allowing the confirmation emails or putting them in the junk folder. We are keeping a constantly updated list of unconfirmed reserves - and will personally contact those that remain unconfirmed to make sure that their reservations are finalized. If you experience any trouble, please pm us or email us: info@hexawatches.com

I like the designs. A couple of questions:

1.) The lifetime adjustment...at a certain point, a movement can't be adjusted anymore, it must be serviced. If you are one of the people that qualify for the free adjusting, and the movement needs to be serviced to be adjusted to spec, is that covered, or at that point, do you pay for a complete servicing and if so, is Hexa able to service the movement?

2.) I like that every watch is tested for WR. Can you give us some detail on how you guys are doing this...is it wet testing or dry testing...what machinery are you using...are you doing it before or after the movement is cased etc.

Thanks and good luck with the new product!

Thanks, these extra pics pushed me toward the pvd, and now mine's ordered.

Thanks for your questions Pete - hopefully the following will help:
• Movement adjustments are always covered, servicing will incur a fee. We are able to provide servicing through our manufacturing partner, Weigand Custom Watch/Lüm-Tec. The Miyota 9015 should be good for 10 years before needing service, unless you live in a particularly dusty area, which can shorten that to 5-7 years.
• Each watch is pressure tested both dry and wet with movement installed. First it is tested in a vacuum chamber (dry) - if it passes there, it is tested in a pressure tank (wet) and must withstand pressure above it's 50bar rating for a period of 5 minutes.

[cuckoo4watches]

is there any way to custom build these with the crown at 4?

what's the release date?

We are currently working on the technical drawings, once these are finalized we should have a prototype in hand in about 3 months. Once the prototype is approved we will move to production. Production time is approximatley 6-8 months.
