So the latest models - Meg 3, Moray 3, Remora 2 - are well on their way. I wonder what Steve and Ralf have planned for the next batch of watches. What would you like to see? Updates of current models (Meg 4, Moray 4 etc)? Reissues/updates of old models (Worldiver, Sea Devil etc)? Something a bit more retro (maybe some crossover with Raven, like a retro case with more modern dial)? A non-diver? A dress watch even? Personally I'd love to see a Worldiver GMT 2, brushed with a dark blue sunbrushed dial.

Right now I am counting shipping boxes and packaging boxes, leather and rubber straps to see if we have enough for the upcoming watches that should arrive in August and September. During those 2 months I will be completely swamped with finalizing payments, shipping, and communication with a few 100 customers. We do want to avoid this type of bottleneck shipping in the future so Ralf and I have been planning and here is some inside info for you: We will show drawings and allow reservations and case finish options for the Megalodon 4. We will be producing more bronze and titanium watches as well but we will get them produced and sell them from our website when they are ready. We are working on 2 new dive watch designs with new cases right now but they are top secret at the moment. Benarus will always be a dive watch, so the non-dive watches will be produced by Raven. At Raven we are working on designs for a new pilot watch that is a fresh unique design. We are also working on a modern military style watch with countdown bezel. The pilot watch could be something around 45mm an the modern military watch will be around 42mm. I will be posting the new Raven ideas on that forum soon to show the design direction we are heading after the vintage series.

Great news Steve look forward to seeing the new models. What will the WR be on the Pilot and Military models, it would be nice to have one of these watches that I would not worry about taking in the water.

Steve, Do you have any Megalodon build pictures from the factory that you could post? Just curious as to what it looks like behind the scenes. Thanks.
