So my Ophion arrived today

May 01, 2020,16:19 PM
 

After what we thought was going to be a 2-3 month project that eventually became 7. Kudos for Miguel to overcome case supplier issues, timing and even the Spanish lockdown. One of the most pleasant people to deal with for sure. The watch is everything I expected it to be. I opted for the grainy grey dial since I've always been a big fan of those. The package came together very well, from the elements on the dial to the case shape, Voutilainen lugs and the clear case back displaying the nicely finished movement. The watch came in a leather watch roll with several drawings of the components on this nice opaque paper, all packed in a wooden box. I had asked Miguel to send the grey alligator strap separately in fear of custom issues, just to be sure. Anyhow, thanks for reading and have a good weekend.

Those lugs are very nice.

Sure thing

The proportions are spot on. I was afraid they may come out too round but they are just right

That’s a handsome watch!

I have Ophion’s newest watch on order. It’s still in production, but I hope Miguel contacts me soon to tell me that it’s finished. Can’t wait to see it and show it off here. Also I agree that Miguel is very easy to deal with.

Should be close now

The patience will pay off. You will enjoy the guilloche dial for sure. What color is yours?

I hope so.

 
 By: BigAppleBill : May 1st, 2020-19:08
I ordered the white/silver guilloche dial with blue hands and blue Breguet numerals.

Thank you [nt]

I spot your Ulysse Nardin. Today something different will arrive at my home. An audio toy for moi. A streaming device like a Swiss knife in functionality. App, Hi-res, etc.

Borrowed the UN straps

My OPH 786 says hi And I cannot wait for my Vèlos to arrive ...  

Yes, cannot wait!

Will of course post the new Salmon arrival once in hand. Also enquiring about some other potential options. I must say, I cannot speak highly enough of Miguel. Very available and always happy to answer questions etc. Niall

Salmon dial mmm

I'm curious to see how much nicer they look in normal settings. The prototype dials look like a success. I was tempted to swap to one and I can't remember how many times I pulled up old reviews to look at the grey dial and held my ground ☺️

Haha I know the feeling.

 
 By: NoH : May 5th, 2020-02:30
I also went over and back on which one of the new dials I thought I would prefer.

congratulations! I do not recall...

Lifbi have read technical details on this brand. Too much lockdown?

Congratulations.
