Borealis Porto Santo Blue ☀️

[repOman]

Picked up a Borealis Porto Santo "Blue"... different but I like it... Radiomir vibe, engraved rehaut and cool buckle... 44mm case and 24mm lugs...Deep blue dial (looks black till you get it in the light) and unique small seconds in yellow...

WW1 TRENCH LUGS...kitschy hands nod to BALI HAI... CUSHION CASE... engraved rehaut... dial paint plays the light like SATCMHO blows his horn ...black to blue into the light ...

really special REPO...i been looking at BOREALIS lately...and at PORTUGAL with EURO @ .90 to USD ...PORTUGAL and SPAIN were occupied by MUSLIMS for centuries..."RECONQUISTA " meant QUEEN ISABELLA had expelled them muslims and were pumped up to send CRISTOBAL COLON off slaving and conquering and gold hunting ...would luv to see PORTUGAL in '23 the " AL GARVE " lay my fat hairy ass on a beach and dry my 3-hand tool

Stan used the same movement for these.

I love the small seconds on that dial and how Borealis is going around the rehault. The watch gave me a Panerai Black Seal vibe with the case and lug design.

 

[Panzerfaust]

Very cool and different. I can see why you were drawn to it. Congrats

So is this the 8218 ? I love that movement. That's perfect at 44mm with that bezel. It sizes up quite nicely
