I let you discover this sister company from H2O represented at 3T: Helberg.
This time, the watches will wear the "Swiss Made" on them dial.
There is a 3000 and 6000 meters model.
They will be available in bronze as well.
Yes, of course, you recognize the design inspiration who was as well used by G&Walter...
I must say that the bubble crystal of the 6000m is impressive. http://www.helberg.com/

This has gone to the top of my shopping list.

Since I now have 3 H2O (technically 1 Kalmar + 1 Orca with 2 cases) I think the engineering on Clemens new watches will be just as sweet.


The hemi crystal will be too much for me but will be ordering the SS with domed crystal pretty much as the Oceanictime photo so helpfully donated when they appear on the pre order scene.

Do you think a custom full case polish would be a little too "bling"?

The Megalodons full polish looked too bling to me...But it's me. Anyway, it's a scratch-magnet!

Looks ok but the case seems a bit off balance to the bezel. I can consider it though.

Yeah it was the bling factor that put me off the polished Meg in the end too Will.
I have an Orca Mono case which I am eyeing with a view to applying the Dremel and paste as well but the main thing holding me back is the thought of all that shiny metal on the wrist. That and the firm knowledge that within 20 minutes of finishing polishing it up I am going to clatter it of something very hard and end up with a bl**dy great big scratch or dent in the case!

I think that a brush or blasted finish is always best on a chunky diver.
Don't polish your watch, you might get blind
