BOLDR's Expedition

Post by AtomicTom » Mon Nov 13, 2017 11:49 am

Just seeing this new watch that's in the works from BOLDR everybody. How about you?

It's the dual crown field watch called the Expedition which comes in six different
versions named after legendary mountains. Including Kilimanjaro, Everest, Rainier,
Fuji, Eiger, and Rushmore.

With the watches having 41mm stainless, or stainless with PVD cases, 200M WR,
doubled domed sapphire crystals, dials in black, gray, blue, and even lume white
with C3, and BGW9 Super-Luminova hands, and markers, sapphire case-backs that
show you the Sellita SW200-1, canvas straps, and more guys.

Some pictures for you...

The white date wheel and surround looks terrible on the black one with the all yellow accents. These micro guys are sloppy. They should have come to DWC for some free design consulting.

+1

I normally don't like lume dials but this one isn't bad. I think the hour and minute hand size need to be differentiated more though.

You could do a lot worse for the money. This one comes with a quality movement, nice size and decent layout for under $400 shipped. I remember when you couldn't get a Helson new for that much. It seems like micro prices are falling..well except for Ginault and Monta.

I think the white dial looks terrific.

Not bad looking, but I don't think I can get past the brand name.

A bad watch name kills it for me.
