Brellum Marine Pandial Duobox 311
First off, big shout out to Eric for getting this organized.
Secondly, Sebastien...wow...just wow...
from first contact to watch delivery...great experience overall
I feel along the way we get jaded with watches in the 2k+ range..especially with 7750 based ones...
what with the myriad of choices and crazy value to be found in this class.
Nevertheless, the moment pics of this were posted...something about it caught my eye.
I am glad I took the plunge.
The attention to detail is nuts.
Here is it packed perfectly with proper foam cutouts to 'suspend' the box in the postal box...i have never seen anything like this before
the outer box and gloss piano watch box itself
this is where things get crazy...what a kit!!
all sorts of goodies to be found!! Watch case, pouch, extra links, extra spring bars, spring bar tool, COSC cert, personal TQ note,
extra rubber nato on top of the blue leather strap I added on as part of the group buy special
Check, check, multiple checks! The watch came sized and I only had to remove 1 link..o ya...bracelet sizing tool...check!
this blue camo nato is sik, comes with custom hardware
closer inspection shows the extra strap comes with quick release springbars and more customised hardware
this is some serious hardware
---------------------------
now the actual watch
let me get straight to the best thing about it...apart from it being absolutely stunning
it is crazy ridiculous comfortable!!! that domed caseback is amazing!
the finishing is superb, everything that needs to be on point and detailed is done well
will just let the watch do the talking now
check out that dome!
the case is just so well thought out, it doesn't wear thick or large at all. not one bit
the bracelet is an absolute delight, again well thought out with all the bits to allow for easy strap change and resizing
the movement..now dang...that some kickass finishing and decorations there
what i love...for a 7750 base...it is sooooo quiet. the rotor spins smooth like butter and the beat is super clean
caseback dome!! o mama - i dig how the case allows perfect fit of the movement.
the logo is a Wyvern
It is a dragon like beast with wings, a bird’s body and a snake’s head which is a legendary symbol popular in storytelling.
A precious stone known as a carbuncle is encrusted into the wyvern’s forehead.
The stone’s symbol is discreetly found on the crown.
absolutely love it, what a buy - my first buy in quite a while too!
such an interesting indigo blue!
Sebastien, I salute ya!

Re: Brellum Marine Pandial Duobox 311
And btw any guy who takes the care and expense to pack a shipment the way Sebastien does shows that he goes the extra mile to deliver exceptional quality.

Also can't wait to see the rubber NATO. Isn't your like a blue camouflage?

We should do another group deal when you're ready if Sebastien would be open to it. I would grab another. I'd like to see if any new models come out too.

That’s a great looking piece. There’s a lot on the dial and yet it’s not busy.
