Re: Draken Peregrine
I was being badgered by Kickstarter to make my selection. Decided to go with this one;-
Now the long wait until June 2018 commences . . .

Re: Draken Peregrine
Draken have been very good over the last six months or so with progress updates by email and posts on Facebook.
Received a dispatched email from DHL Express overnight with deliver expected by the end of the day on Thursday 12th July.

Re: Draken Peregrine
Well, the Peregrine came swooping in to land yesterday afternoon and has made an immediate good impression, particularly as this is my first (new) Kickstarter watch.
Every bit as good as the CAD design pics and promotional photos.
Even though it's a, too big for some, 44mm case and quite tall this shrinks on the wrist with the black pvd and inwards angled case sides.
The leather lined canvas strap has shaped fairly quickly and the chunky looking, but actually slim profile, clasp is excellent.
The travel case it came in has the logo and 'Draken' embossed in the top, which is neat, and there was a thoughtful hand written note from Mike the guv'nor, along with a sew on patch.
Some photos from yesterday on arrival and lunchtime today out in the sunshine.

Full lume in blue.
PS> There is a very small step in the dial level; hence the lume appears as a centre circle and an outer ring.
Even the logo on the rotor is lumed, along with the logo on the end of the crown.

Re: Draken Peregrine
It's a really cracking watch Guy . But I'm hanging on for the Kalahari black pvd with cream dial. The dial colour, the hands, the milled bezel and power reserve have really got my attention. Roll on Sunday!!
