The original silver bezel versions appear to make the dial leap from the watch - the black bezel versions you have created make the dial seem to be inward-focusing. Both are cool looks with the squared off hands, though. To each his own. But nothing I have seen beats the 3T LE version - that was a blinder...

Now as for bezel suggestions (nobody asked, but what the heck... :D)- I would love to see some bezel variations from Berg that do not use chrome numerals or markers. Maybe a smaller font for the bezel numbers, a triangular lume at 12, numerals at 15, 30 and 45, no count-down from 0 to 15 minutes, all done in lume under an acrylic-covered bezel (like the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms and the even more beautiful MKII Stingray) with stick markers at the 5-minute intervals all the4 way around. Any chance u could do the deed and post it here for comment as a possible future one for Orsa? Berg has made no mention of any desire to deviate from his designs - and what with parts sourcing and the long lead time for any new design - it will only be a suggestion at this time. But maybe worth a thought... and another way of differentiating the quartz version from its more expensive automatic brother?

Sorry for the rant, all.

Cheers and good work 2ster!

thats alright 2ster - I am sure that Berg already has enough on his plate with all the projects he has on the go right now. Let's wait and see what he comes up with next, and see if he even wants input from any of us... mistake.gif subtlelaugh.gif

Have a great day!!

Interesting ideas, but to be honest I like the design of the Orsa dials the way they are.  They are so unique and stylish, and surrounded by a tough as nails case.  That has always been the appeal of the Sea Anglers to me.
