Having looked at this a few times on Oceanictime, I have decided I like it without seeing it in the flesh. Reminds me of a sort of updated O and W.
I miss all the great things that may never be.

An excellent choice sir :clap:

I do like that Prometheus but I'd be nervous about what it's going to look like in real life, i.e. what will the colours look like under light, etc. I'm sure it'll be stunning but you're a braver man than I :shock:

Where did you buy it?

And what's that orange diver on the NATO you've got?

I don't own any NATO straps! Only orange piece I have is the Prometheus Baiji.

Gerlach, direct from them.

Sorry, I got the wrong person. It was an orange diver on Non CW of the Day. Doh!

I meant where did you buy the Sailfish? I've already bought a Sokol from Gerlach :D

They have it also in blue and yellow.

Here are another pictures of the project.

The sad part, for me at least, is that before buying the c60 i had my mind set on the Signatura dress watch. In August they said that in a few months they would have them. So far nothing. Not enought movements for all the watches since ETA is cutting supply, he says.

Having said that, all the owners over WUS seems very happy with their own...

Cheers,
Sifion.

I have a grey one coming too.

You can thank me for the grey dial, it was something we were going to do with a forum watch but decided not to and Carlos asked if he could use the grey dial for production.

I can't wait to see proto pics.

Looks great, but for a 50 fathmos homage I'd prefer Precista, although its impossible to obtain one now, discontinued and seldom resold. Well if someone willing to part with one please let me know!!
