What is the release date? Did they make any improvements to the movement?

It's a prototype, hopefully the pearl will be fixed as it looks pretty accurate otherwise

IMO its not much of an improvement! Might as well swap the pearl on the previous moded for a PBDad pearl!

The pearl's leg is 0,8mm diameter, but they drill 1,5mm hole in bezel insert... Is it SO difficult to drill 0,8mm hole??? They send people in Space, but can't make perfect pearl, gosh...

My head hurts. Was just about to pick the Mrs up a BP and now Ryan is telling me he has these in hand.
Hopefully get a price soon, as am thinking, what the hell, one pf us has to get one just to see. Al take one for the team.

Hmm, do I spy 2mm bars on the end links? That would be awesome.

Pearl looks ok
Bezel font is still thin and shallow
Clasp and bracelet look very well made although end link fitment still seems an issue
Dial plots look like DSSD V7's which is a good upgrade
Rehaut looks aligned

Agreed. Only issue for me is the thin non-engraved bezel insert markings (I wonder if a BP insert will swap in?).

Pearl looks good to me and the dial is spot on. Will be interesting to see a lume shot...

Do people even think before they start pointing out "flaws"? The pearl on this is the part that they probably got the most right. It's awesome. It may look different in different lights, but it's probably the best made sub-c pearl to date.

If you don't believe me read this blog post on Angus' wesbite and look at the pics:

Only significant flaws are the bezel font/color and the fat hour hand. Everything else looks awesome.
