Just One More Watch
Published on Aug 10, 2019

A month after reviewing the eye-wateringly expensive original, today I'm happy to show you a much more affordable alternative to the Rolex Explorer. Coloured dials, different hands and a jubilee add some Portugese flavour, but why change a classic too much? Cheers, Jody

^^^^^An :outstand: timepiece indeed!:dance:Thanks Mike.:hat:^^^^^
 
I am astonished by the dial patterns (can't decide between salmon and pastel green), BUT the hour/minute hands are so hideous. (I really don't care it's a Rolex homage). Mercedes style is a no-go for me. And the other variant drives me crazy with prolonged ends over the pinion (I can't remember how this "style" is named).
I really wanted to to add one Adraga to my collection, BUT the hands are the VERY deal-breaker for me. Had hopes they will change them in the v2...
 
This black dial version of the Borealis Adraga brings me memories of Tron.

316L Stainless Steel Case.
Miyota 90S5 Automatic Movement.
Case diameter: 39.50 mm excluding crown.

:hmm: It seems more and more are getting on the correct no-date movement train and it's about time because no ghost position matters.
