The yellow looks awesome in photos. Not a Doxa Yellow, seems to have some orange hue to it.pbj204 wrote:I saw them in person at Worn & Wound NYC.
The yellow is VERY yellow, and glossy. If you wouldn't buy a Doxa Orange then you wouldn't buy the Seaforth Yellow.
The Blue can be worn with anything.
Love these shots.
I do like Doxa orange but not Doxa yellow.
I’d do the dive bezel though.
Or Abyss shapphire blue bezel or fixed.

Pastel with five bezel is my choice.

It’s a bit more true Yellow in your shot it seems.Chocodove wrote:Yellow was cool. I took this shot at Wind Up.Jeep99dad wrote:The yellow looks awesome in photos. Not a Doxa Yellow, seems to have some orange hue to it.pbj204 wrote:I saw them in person at Worn & Wound NYC.

Not sure it goes well with the sapphire bezel tho. I prefer it with dive or fixed bezel.
Maybe I’ll try ordering both yellow and blue, then déicide which to keep since I can’t really afford both

Seems like he needs to upgrade his web site's infrastructure. I get that his watches are popular but, in reality, how many people are accessing his site trying to pre-order? A few thousand at most? Any reasonable web server should be able to handle a load like that.
Re: Seaforth preorders tomorrow 1/18
I feel bad for Jason and whoever wasn’t able to get in and can’t try tomorrow. Hopefully he had convos with his host before today about the expected heavy traffic. And they’ve figured something out for tomorrow. This is a growing pain he has not handled as well.

Re: Seaforth preorders tomorrow 1/18
I agree. It’s non-sense imo that as a business, they can’t handle that. But it’s not a big deal to me in the end.

I think that was Strider.
But yeah, the IG comments are very funny. One guy was pissed because he took a vacation day for the preorder.

Re: Seaforth preorders tomorrow 1/18
Yes...I totally forgot about the preorder this morning. Now I got a second chance at it. Has anyone ordered from Helios pre-order before? I want to get two but i wonder how the cart system is gonna work. If you can add one should you check out right away or add two then checkout?

Anyone got a paraphrased version of that story? Anything I ever tried to read was really long and drawn out.
Re: Seaforth preorders tomorrow 1/18
Claimed he was a ranger and combat veteran. Came out that he went to jail for stealing a car or something like during the period he said he was deployed. Dates don’t add up and the admin of bladeforums really hates him for some reason, so he dug up a lot of dirt that doesn’t make him look the greatest.nweash wrote:Joeprez wrote:I think that was Strider.

I don’t particularly like it, but he has done and continues to do a lot of work with veterans, etc. and I don’t think anyone could doubt his love and support of the military and veterans. He also happens to make a very good knife.

Thanks. I guess I knew the gist of it. I sure wouldn’t mind finding a used PT.
