Just One More Watch

Borealis are a solid brand making solid watches. There are plenty of other companies who would like your $390USD, so the question is how much do you like the dial? Cheers, Jody

I originally was leaning towards grey or white but ultimately went with no date blue.

 

[roadwarrior]

I like the orange and would have liked to see a yellow dial as well. I had the hand wound C65 yellow dial on the bracelet for $430, but it was snatched from my cart. I did grab the blue dial on bracelet which is in New York City gateway customs clearance process.

Picked up the blue C65 on a strap during a previous sale. It's a fantastic watch. Might hit them up in the morning and see what I can get them to do on the C60 sapphire since they canceled my order and offered me £250 off anything else.

That yellow would have been a nice pickup.

I ended up purchasing the orange one a few days ago when it came back to being available. Interestingly after this review by Jodi the orange sold out

Almost to the day, back in 2019 they took my money and screwed me out of the order for this one.

[gregg]

Was on my list, but I'm trying to save for something out of my normal
price range as I have said.

 

[Paul M]

Invoice came in. Ready to ship.

Which color variation did you get Paul

 

[Paul M]

Blue no date pencil hands.

 

[MaddMatt]

Mine is shipping tomorrow/tonight. 2nd purchase from Borealis. This time purchased the Orange No Date with Cathedral hands. Previous purchase was the Royal Blue Olisipo. A buddy saw me wearing it and loved it and made me an offer I couldn't refuse so sold it to him after a walk to the ATM. Still kicking myself for selling it... Oh well, make money when you can in this hobby. This is what I'm getting in a couple of days...

^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^

 

[Paul M]

The orange is on fire. Congrats.

 

[MaddMatt]

Thanks, last time it only took 2 days to ship from Portugal.... I was impressed. Nice choice with the blue no date. Congrats also...

 

[MaddMatt]

She's a Beaut! Just came in today. Two days from Portugal! It's no wonder I can't get any work done when working from home. Simply beautiful for $390.00.

And the BGW9 looks Awesome
Put her on the timegrapher....

Not bad for under $400.00!

 

[MaddMatt]

Sorry for the blurry lume shot, but you get the idea. I gotta get back to work! Thanks for checking it out.
