You can see the blue from the ar coating in some angles, and you can also see how the watch wears much lower than the specs would have you think, the case back is very comfortable.











Wow Roland!  Welcome to 3T!

First those sweet Bronze buckles you had manufactured, and now this!!!thumbsup.gif

Agree with Jeff's comment above, the date feature does remind me a bit of JLC influence...cool.gif...and I like the blue seconds and date indicator.  Very cool!

Hey Craustin1!

The lugs are 24mm, and the supplied strap is 24mm with a taper at the buckle to 22mm. It uses 22mm buckles.

Hope that helps!

-Roland

After much deliberation & hours of trying to make myself not like it, I ordered the Miyota version. I'm looking forward to getting this one. The two bezels make this one almost to good for me to pass up. Now I just need to find someone to make me a sweet vintage ammo strap.

Great job Roland.

Right you are!



Now available are three great new options for the bronze diver, both the ETA and Miyota movement models. The first is a no-date dial in the original black. Anyone who doesn't like the triple date window, this ones for you! Your Olivier will have a great, absolutely minimal dial, no nonsense here. Second is a Prussian blue dial. This is a deep, dark blue that really compliments the bronze case, hands and bezel. Third is a rich dark mahogany dial. This dark brown dial is a must have if you want to put the Bronze Diver on a leather strap. These watches will still come with BOTH bezels, so no need to choose which look you like more! These dials are in limited quantity, so be sure to put your order in today [http://www.olivierwatches.com]! I hope everyone had a wonderful new year celebration, its gonna be a wild 2012!!! Thank you so very much to all of you who have pre-ordered, you are all the ones making this happen!

TechTimeTalk, all of you guys have been great, giving me valuable feedback, and a lot of great encouragement. Thank you so much, I hope everyone is already having a great new year ThumbsUp02.gif

Hi all -

After exchanging  a few emails  with Roland, I've sent my deposit for a ETA-brown dial model ... can't wait until spring!
