UPDATE 31.05.2012:

Please let me inform you some updates of the last days. :-)

Watch Prototype Arrival:

We are expecting our prototypes to arrive end of June. As we are receiving 10 prototypes in total I´m sure you will see some previews of the watches in July. After arrivial of the watches we will make of course the first photos shooting of the prototypes, but short after that we will send the watches to the company who is hardening our cases. This process will take a pretty long time (approx. 2 weeks)! I don´t know if I could survive without them for such long time. :-)

Bracelet Prototype Arrival:

We hope to receive the bracelet prototypes also at the end June. As well the bracelet prototypes will be hardened.

Bracelet length:
Our bracelet will be VERY LONG! With 210mm length incl. clasp I believe it is the longest bracelet in the market. Add the length of the watch (approx. 54mm) and even your 10.4" wrist could wear our new watches!!!! So lots of spare links to adjust to EVERY wrist.

WR Testing:
As we were the first micro brand officially certifying the WR of our watches we will continue with this open communication. We will test the WR of the watches up to their maximum or stop latest at 3000M. :-) This should be enough for everyone. :-)

Watch Box:
Up today I was planning to use our standard H2O KALMAR watch box with 4 compartments. We are checking right now a hard-shell case alternative similar to the PELI case 1150. Our hard-shell case prototype is in the air right now and we will receive it next week. The decission will be made in next week.

CNC Machine:
Our first CNC machine will arrive next week. I´m really looking forward to that as this is our first step into own manufacturing of our watches. But we are German: One step after the other! :-)
