It will be release this Friday as 4/4/14 is a 'auspicious' date for the Chinese.

My wife is Chinese , the number 4 signifies death by the way , 8 is the magic number not 4.

Does anyone know if the bezel shown in the original photos is the final version? The size of those markers still seems off to me.

Do you know price sora? I have heard on good authority it is likely to be more expensive than zf version


That is due to the additional R&D costs associated with the prolonged air and sweat patina testing. They have to get it just right to be truly 1:1 to gen.

Or so KW is not represented by Kuvarsit Watch? Just that they use the same name?
Remember I paid them sometime back via Paypal and the paypal email was used by some Turkish strap maker. I may be wrong. But KW watches are still made in china right?

The great 1:1 reps are all made in northern Italy on old used Swiss equipment and tooling. Didn't you knew...?

KW is Kuvarsit Watch. It has a distinction of being both a dealer and a maker. Mehmet is the owner (probably was the Turkish strap maker). Li, Alen and Amanda are his sales/support agents.

And this alloy exists there because the area has been known for trolls. Imagine, your wrist watch made out of troll droppings... :hehehe:

It might interesting to note that KW ain't a maker, not anymore.... Only up to that 1:1 312 and on... Those were made and have been made upto this new 382 by another well known maker who sells them through KW or rather under the KW banner....

its a politics thing with the big makers and one of them needed a go-between so to speak for thier PAMs....

So all you see under the KW brand is from another maker...

It was a similar situation with the AP FC, which was originally released as a KW but was made by another well known maker though not the same as the PAMs....

KW made those early 386s, 441s and 375s but the first release of 'KW' 1:1 312s and all those that followed were made by another maker.... And still are....
