1. Love the logo at 6 O'clock position, but do feel the logo at 12 O'clock is not needed?

2. Maybe one of the hands can also have red to match the dial?
we might forgo either one of the logo. Still in planning stage :)

Update

Made some minor changes to the dial.

- logo above 6:00 is removed and is replaced with 'Automatic 200m'
- SC logo in white below 12:00
- secondhand box will be in orange.

Original design

Idea is to keep a clean look to the dial. So far the revised design is looking clean.

As for plongeur style hands as suggested by balzelbub bro, I tried superimpose just now but I feel there are too much orange within the whole watch & hence white hands seems to be just about right :)

I think dial min markers can do away to make it clean. Bezel insert min markers all the way. Just my one cent input.

Rojakman - hmm,we'll discuss payment at a later stage. Haha

Watchlooker - having the min markers is still ok, reading time at a glance will be easier but is a gd suggestion bro :mrgreen:

No problem, lunarin79.
One question, the merlion caseback are you sure it will not infringe copyright? I find it do not match with the scs watch as a whole.

I don't think it will be an issue using merlion theme.

we will improvise further on the design, it might just look like a lion's head instead :)

Icons of Singapore, I can only think of merlion or orchid, haha

unless we look at it as a diver watch, linking it with sea mammals like other microbrand does on their caseback?

Interesting discussion. Thanks to CEO for updating me on this.

Dial is fine with me. Thots - Logo in red/orange to match markers?
Hands - no changes
Case - consider pvd? The pics of the explorer in pvd looks good
caseback - how about the logo from Thundercats? hahaha (half serious actually)

got a PVD explorer, the PVD work on the watch case is good but can't say the same for bracelet. It scratches easily...

As for thunder cats logo... I'm no fuss, as long as it's not Garfield or Tom (from Tom & Jerry) or Felix. :)

CEO, may I suggest that no LE numbers be put on the watch simply cuz everyone will (ok not all but a good majority) want to book this and that and instead, go with just 1 of 50 on the back. 01/50 for all. or a simple 50/50 or LE 50. This will help the whole process too. That's what I see IWC doing and to me works better than having individual numbers as people buy the forum watch anyway. Just my take.

For your consideration..

Thanks
