Bathys Hawaii Update for the Ohana

Ohana Update for This summer 25th 2008
Aloha Everybody,
To begin with, sorry that it’s been such a long time since our last update ? things here happen to be frenetic at Bathys headquarters since?wow…since as lengthy when i can remember. It’s less it’s challenging me to sit down lower and write the update ? shoots I’ll discuss Bathys watches to anybody who even breaks to tie their shoe in the pub ? no it has been a lot more dependent on producing all of the emails in to the ‘Ohana list. It’s grown over 400% since 2007 and I am still unsure we now have everybody. Actually I am sure we don’t, but we are still browsing through email demands, etc. Any sorry if you achieve multiple copies of the email..
The gorgeous factor is the fact that since we now have added our new US Distributor, Picciones of Ohio (world wide web.picciones.com), and they’ve absorbed a few of the day-to-day business matters, we finally getting time for you to do much more of what we should love ? design new watches. Really wish i could reveal what we are as much as, but that will be time.
Also Kaira Hendrich at Picciones has worked challenging Bathys watches right into a store in your area. You are able to make reference to the Bathys Hawaii website for the dealer person, but here is a new listing of Bathys Approved Sellers:
Exquisite Watches of Naples Florida
The Timezone of Bountiful Utah
Gemstone Blades of West New You are able to in Zoysia
Erectile dysfunction Marshall in Chandler Az
Ben Bridge Timeworks Ala Moana Honolulu (watches can also be found from Ben Bridge Customer Center in Dallas)
Grandes Gems of The island of kauai and Maui.
One sad factor was we needed to cease our agreement with Selfridges working in london. If little else, we found that Bathys watches require a sales people which are themselves watch enthusiasts and may tell our story. Whenever you just dump our watches right into a large mall atmosphere with ever-altering salesmen, our message certainly will get lost. We discover we want a far more intimate approach like that’s available at a devoted watch boutique and will also be searching to spread out another United kingdom Bathys Dealer later this season.
OK let us talk watches!
Here’s what’s decreasing the pipe for that relaxation of 2008.
Within the final stages of production are our new mid-sized watch out for ladies (or males preferring a more compact situation) ? the Lunar Wahine.
Here is a quick photo I required at Baselworld:

Transporting the Bathys concept right into a more compact situation (36mm), the Wahine ("wah-HEE-nay") includes a moonphase complication, 100M water proofing, 3mm domed anti-reflection azure very, and includes both a waterproof black calfskin strap along with a genuine black stingray strap with quick-change hooks. Our goal here ended up being to design a wrist watch for ladies which was as tough as our watches for men, but to really make it more compact and sculpted for any thinner wrist. I virtually designed the timepiece to suit how my very own wife lives and works ? that is hard (double meaning intended). Women within The island of kauai spend considerable time within the sea as well as on the beach ? both very harsh conditions. So foremost it had been designed like a timekeeping instrument that may work when exposed to daily saltwater exposure ? much like we all do for the other watches. Then to really make it a bit more awesome for that ladies when they would like to hit the city, we added the functioning moonphase, the stingray strap making up three sweet versions: a steel situation/black dial steel situation/chocolate brown dial along with a RoseTi PVD/ black dial (my own fave). These retail for $795 and will start to become available Now! (This summer 25th?)
On my small wrist right now may be the next watch we are starting this summer time ? The Ti-Quarta movement Benthic. I really like this factor. It’s pretty huge at 47mm, but since it is solid titanium and since we are now within the third round of prototypes, this really is one comfortable puppy. Things I like about this is the fact that we are creating a very light, strong situation from solid titanium – the ring store the movement is titanium. And within this light situation we are placing a large, perfectly-made Ronda 7003.N quarta movement movement. This can be a jeweled 15′" movement (at 36mm the biggest Swiss quarta movement movement I understand of) and it is built of solid brass plates and it has two complications: a sizable date at 6:00 along with a retrograde trip to 12:00. Like several Benthic models additionally, it includes a uni-directional rotating timing bezel with luminous marker. These will include whether black, blown ruthy gray, or perhaps a real carbon fibre dial. I keep switching these dials out attempting to choose which I love best. Cost? $950 with two 24mm straps one waterproof leather and something rubber. You can observe nice renderings of the new watch here:

Ah?but how about this new Damascus Steel watch?
OK well first allow me to get everybody up to date on Damascus Steel.
Damascus steel has been manufactured for around 1000 years, and grew to become legend throughout the Crusades when swords forged from this kind of steel were considered to have the ability to slice through traditional swords.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damascus_steel
http://world wide web.knifekits.com/store/image…ndom_sheet.digital
99% of Damascus steel is made of forging two kinds of carbon steel (H+L) together to create the laminate. However this kind of steel would rapidly rust if converted into a watch situation. Therefore we needed to look for a supply of balance more rare stainless Damascus Steel. We now have found a resource in Germany and since each block of steel is going to be hand made by Herr Schneider, our production can be really limited. The instances is going to be produced in Germany too with a CNC factory that accustomed to make watch cases and today makes such things as fuel injectors for AMG Mercedes?their machines come with an amazing 3 micron tolerance! We do not know neither the cost nor the precise production figures (under 20 is my prediction), and already many of these happen to be offered on pre-order!
And before Time passes, I wish to point out that the brand new BATHYS CLUB website has become open (world wide web.bathys-club.com) It’s still largely a piece happening, however, you will go there to determine more photos from your occasions and very quickly we’ll obtain the blogging happening.
Desire a copy in our new 2008 catalog? If that’s the case, please drop a contact to: Tanya@picciones.com with "Bathys Catalog Request" within the subject heading, and we’ll acquire one on you. The catalog can also be available like a a smaller amount sexy, but more eco-friendly Pdf about the Bathys website.
OK, well that’s all for the time being.
