Hello to all,

and thank you for the warm welcome.

My name is Ralf and I am from Germany.

With BENARUS the dream came through to make my own watches.

For the first edition I had to choose a case that is already on the market, because for a small edition a new design is to expensive. I think some of you know this case.

I have choosen this case because it is proven and known as very good quality. I have decided to use the Miyota workhorse 8215, to keep the price down. But I tried to put all all the other fine things we all love, e.g. sapphire crystal, srewed bracelet links, 2 different clasps ,extra strap. The watch is asian made and I don't want to confuse anybody with GERMANY on the dial, I only did because I am located in Germany.
Future models will be without .

It was really exciting when I offerd the watch the first time cause I didn't know how other WIS will like it, but about 30 are sold in the preorder and that was a confirmation for me that I am on the right way.

Let me know how you like it , I am always open to suggestions and hope we have a good time here on the forum.

Please excuse that my English is not perfect, school is sometime ago.

Best Regards Ralf

Welcome Ralf. You are making good looking watches. For the record, your English is much better than my German. My Rottweiler though, is trained in German.

Hi Ralf,

The watch looks amazing and I hope to get one as well. Good luck with your project. I have heard it said that it is easy to make a nice watch at $10,000 but it is not so easy to make a nice watch at $400 or less.

I have expensive tastes and an economy budget so a watch like this is very nice. Miyota makes an awesome movement! Attention to detail, good lume, quality build are the most important things I look at in a quality dive watch. This looks to have that recipe.

Good Luck and welcome!!

Rob
