. . . on my way to a Dornblüth*. Placed an order for one of their latest models, the 99.1 M . . . . . . late last month. As much as I was taken by their in-house ceramic black dial, I was inspired by a request many years ago from one of my pals (who posts...  

Some impressive customer commitment!

The idea of a ceramic dial sounds interesting. Is my understanding correct that the primary advantages are the longevity of enamel without the risk of cracking?

Truly cool

I saw Dornbluth at Amsterdam Watch Company a few years back. The finish of their movements was to die for! You must be excited. I can't wait to see what you ultimately choose and the final product.

Commitment

That’s what customer service and commitment is all about. Do t know if I like the grey that’s much, personal preference would probably be the black dial But it’s great to read how far they will go to assist potential clients. Am Curious to see the and res...

There attention to details and that they are willing to go to another level to be able to make the watch of your dreams. Looking forward to see your new watch 🤗

I recall Jocke saying once that the 'gestation' period for a Dornbluth . . .

. . . . . .

I'm pretty much set on having blued hands,so . . .

. . . a blue-grey dial would probably be less legible than either of the other two shades. And I'm not sure a bulls-eye configuration would be possible. But thanks for the suggestion! Best, Art

Their CSR was right

Whereas the manufacturer could have just shown you online proofs (easily made, and truthfully, fairly close to what you'd expect, but not for the picky), you'd never get a sense of the exact color and finish unless you had it in your hands. Ambient light,... 

So, putting on your graphic artist hat, which shade . . .

There are not much company's

that beat the customer service as the Dornblüth Team provide. I have really tested Jana's patience and she always answers the most complicated questions or desires with a smile on her lips. She really did end up being a bully when I terrorized her the fir... 

Now I know why . . .
