VERY NICE strap, but $120?! WOW! That is CRAZY MONEY! What happened to the days of nice $15 straps?
I like the regular and our special strap and the bracelet better for the money! That said, I do want one of the black/red straps w/ the BIG HOLES in it and the deployment buckle...how much are those? Or is it one of those, if you have to ask you can't afford it things?!

This one is expensive because its from Ball Watch and its from Switzerland.
I am in the process of pricing one out with the holes.
The one in the pic is from Tissot.
My mfg has the same pattern, just trying to find out if he can color the holes.
Deploy buckles are available though.
I will keep everyone posted on the straps.
The deploy is going to be brushed SS not bead blasted, but there isn't a huge amount of difference in appearance on the buckle since it is not that big.
Deploy is going to be about $30 give or take a few bucks.
MAN the watch looks good with the white second hand!!!
Good thing I have one of one!! LOL

That white second hand is so distracting... I don't see how you can stand to even LOOK at it! You know I prefer the white tip, but if it came down to it and we were not able to get it any other way, I certainly would have taken the all white second hand. Just prefer the beautiful subtlety of the white tip, that way it does not take away from any of the other design elements!
YMMV!

The production model is the black one with the white tip
The prototype has an option to have either

I just wanted to take a minute and thank everyone who reserved,stepped up and paid for their watch(es) to guarantee the Limited Edition number of their choosing at the intro price $599.
At this time we are at the 60 units we promised at $599.
From here on out, the watch will be $749.
Thanks again for all the support on this very special project!
Here is the link to the watch on our website.
