First Icy Frost video I have seen. Looks great! Waiting for mine in July! There are still a couple Carmel colors available.
 
I checked with Borealis, if these were on schedule, since the site said manufacturing delays could happen. I was told they are on schedule and should be ready end of June, early July. I’m really looking forward to the Icy Frost dial!
 
Congrats on the green. I'm in for the white. I'm not too crazy about the BOR bracelet, but I'll know for certain when it's in my hands. I have UE RAZOR WIRE I can use to replace it.

Never had a BOR so im looking forward to something different. I hope it’s chunky. My Horizon 43 bracelet feels a little thin to me.

You're going to be in for a disappointment. These brands make bracelets to fit the watch. I doubt a thick bracelet would work well with the Horizon or this Borealis. There is a difference between something heavy and clunky with something well-balanced. Even my Prometheus Eagle Ray the links are not as chunky as the clasp. Borealis, Prometheus and Zelos all took heat when using the ratchet style clasp. One for adjust ability and two the clasp seemed oversized and did not fit the refinement of the rest of the bracelet. I see Wing use weight and quality in the same breath, but IMO many times there is no correlation between the two.
