I like this one a lot more than the Medusa. Like the clean dial and lugs

UN and Oris both have similar divers in their current lineup, based on historic UN and Oris models. Borealis is obviously referencing both designs heavily. They moved the crown to the 4 position, but I'm not sure that works with this clean design.

The Borealis looks better than the UN.

Did not exactly just come out. I like the original three hander better though.

another nice derivative watch from Borealis, but 'Portus Cale'? I know it has something to do with Portugal but wtf? why do micros all need to give stupid names to their models? :smack:
