Thank you for all comments on my new watch design.
Since many years I´m collecting watches and mostly from Panerai. They have made many iconic watches and I got my influence mainly from the Mare Nostrum, which was made 1943. Also the dial design is based on one of their very old models. I tried to combine all the elements I like since decades from Panerai in a way, which has never been done before. Taking up the California dial for the bezel engraving, integrating the second on 09:00 into the long, small hour marker. Also offering titanium grade 5 for the case is quite unique, as normally only grade 1 or 2 is used in the watch industry. Titanium Grade 5 is more than 2x harder compared to Titanium Grade 1 and nearly double as hard as SS 316L. It´s also very difficult to CNC machine and takes double the time for production.
I will offer also unique bezels made from stainless damascus steel and Mokume Gane. The DLC coating will be made by the best German DLC coating company and you won´t find a better DLC coating in the watch industry.
Sorry if I come over to much enthusiastic, but I live for watches and always trying to achieve the best results. That´s why it costs more than Gunthers. :-)
