- SELLITA ORDER
CALIBER SW288
The order for 800 calibers was validated on October 31, and production has officially launched.
Given the relatively long production lead time of 6 to 8 months, this order has been prioritized. The first 500 calibers are expected in April 2025 , in accordance with the schedule established with the manufacturers.
We have also started a final prototyping phase concerning the finishing of the bridges. The reworked design, finalized at the beginning of November, is currently being manufactured at Sellita . At the same time, we are working on the development of new day calendars . Our goal is to harmonize the fonts and colors with the graduations of the dials. The day discs will thus be unique to each edition.
These two new improvements will be covered in a future FOCUS article.
- AJS PRODUCTION ORDER
MOON DISC
The order for 800 moon discs was validated on November 10 , and their production has started. These discs go through several stages: raw production at Sellita, decoration at AJS Production, inspection, then final assembly. Here are the main stages and deadlines for its production:
- PERFEX LIMITED ORDER
STEEL CASES AND BRACELETS
Production of 800 steel cases and bracelets began on November 5 , with delivery scheduled for April 2025. The production of these parts is relatively long, with a lead time of 5 to 6 months for 800 pieces. The new technical drawings of the 10.6mm cases were validated at the end of October and tested under 10 ATM. Series production was therefore able to be initiated quickly.
Regarding the dials, we are currently carrying out a final phase of prototyping , with tests on textures and pantones. Four new manufacturing methods are being studied and ten new parts will be delivered on December 10. The objective is to improve the play of light, and the quality of the rendering on the grained part before mass production. We will come back in more detail on the tests carried out and the decisions taken in a future FOCUS article, dedicated specifically to the dials.
- ADDITIONAL COMPONENTS
SIS GROUP and FLEET LUXURY
The order for 900 packages is currently being finalized, with delivery scheduled for March 2025 .
In addition, we are collaborating with our leather goods workshop to expand a new range of strap colors. The choice of the leather strap will be made in December.
On the way for delivery before summer
We remain confident in our suppliers' ability to meet production deadlines. Our goal of delivering all watches before summer 2025 remains unchanged. We will keep you regularly informed about the next steps in your private space.
Also ich glaube schon das die Macher dieses Projektes schon auf Perfektion achten werden. Allerdings liegt es in der Hand der Zulieferer das exakt zu produzieren. Ich habe aber ein gutes Gefühl dabei. Aber ich gebe meinem Vorredner recht, lieber 2-3 Wochen länger warten, als ein mängelbehaftetes Produkt in den Händen zu halten.
Please guys make sure you prioritize PERFECTION before SPEED. I will happily wait 2 or 3 weeks longer and rather have a great product, than have it 1 week earlier and discover flaws, like misaligned indices, hands, bad coating, scratches, dust on the dial etc.
THANKS FOR YOU EFFORT!
These updates are great, much appreciated!
Could you also provide some updates regarding the results of the luminova survey for Orion Green? Are there enough requests to have BGW9 for those who opted for blue lume?
