Ralf decided to have the factory wait on the shipping of the Worldiver Quartz until he got there and could split the US and international orders up. He also wanted to see the finished watch before it shipped. Here are the first photos I have received this morning from Ralf. I was going to wait to get the watches and take better photos with my equipment, but I know you guys have waited long enough and need to see the finished watch, which looks great even under Ralf's lighting conditions.

These watches are now in route to me. I will be shipping the rubber straps, warranty cards, and polishing cloths to the international preorder customers, so they will not be included in the shipment of the watch from Europe.

There will be a short delay on the mesh bracelet for those that purchased in the preorder. Anyone is welcome to purchase the mesh bracelet in the future after they receive the watch and decide they would like to have it after seeing the pictures that I will post in the near future of the watch on the bracelet.

I will post more photos and news when I have the watches in hand.

For now, enjoy Ralf's photos with my added background texture :D

Hmmm.... I guess that I am the only one who is a little disappointed with these pics. 

The watch seems to be a little "flat" to me...maybe it is just the pics....

I am also not impressed...
But perhaps it is bad angle for them, we will have to see some more photos.

I hesitate to post the photos I get because of the bad lighting and camera. the photos were taken in a hotel room. but I thought getting the photos to you guys is important. I will provide better photos once I have the watches.

Very clever the way the GMT hands are designed. Unique and really hard to find anywhere else.

The pics are ok, in my opinion;).

Big Congrats Ralf and Steve.hand6.gif

yes it is the same, the bezel and dial work together on the blue version.
but the remaining quartz watches that were not preordered are all PVD for the blue and all blasted for the orange.

You can still specify a case finish for the Automatic version at this time.

Those look fantastic, especially the PVD.

Just so I'm clear, any new orders for the Worldover Quartz from within the EU will be shipped for the USA -- is that correct?

that is correct, the EU preorders shipped to the EU from the factory, the unsold watches shipped from the factory to the Benarus headquarters in Kansas City, USA.
