41mm ti case with acrylic domed crystal would be a fun little beater.

Sounds like fun, especially if it is Ti.

Quartz -> date at 6:00

Automatic -> no date

And please, no destro.

Oh, heck yea! Something like that Pleamar compressor. Give it foot WR, great lume, and it would be great.

Drill those lugs, bitch! ;)

That is what I am thinking. But with a quartz GMT movement. No alarm

Even just a basic Quartz, no date. GMT not necessary for first watch. It's potentially another thing to go wrong, which you don't need in an initial offering.

I'd buy one at whatever price if you name it ToxicDick!

For me, if I were to have a wishlist: automatic (if I may be an elitist prick, ETA 2892 or finer movement :D), 41-42mm titanium case, date, sapphire covered or ceramic lumed bezel, toxic green lume, trademark toxic green accents, crown on the right side, and no drilled lugs.

Wherever this watch is made might be a lead to a compressor type case? Maybe?

Okay I now have two companies in the US once I get some cash going I can probably use. The compressor case manufacture overseas is a no go, they need an order of 300 watches, at $200 I can not afford to do that at all. The lowest amount I can get made int he US local is 100 watches. So that might be the route I go in the long run. Just not right now.

Thanks for all of the feedback on this guys.
