Tornek Rayville Please

Hi all,

I sit here, as I write this, with a wonderful P300 ( with date ) on my wrist. I took off the metal bracelet and put it on the supplied NATO. It looks absolutely amazing. It constantly draws the eye. The clarity, crispness and precision of the dial is mesmerising. The bezel is brilliantly legible when viewed straight and reflects all sorts of fabulous colours at other angles.

After the watch finally cleared UK Customs ( after 2 weeks ), it has not left my wrist for a week and I am a very happy man.

Except .... I struggle to describe this ... I have a strange and tiny piece of emptiness inside. A little void where something is missing. Where something used to be. It took me some days to work out what it was ... for the first time in almost 10 years my "incoming list" is now empty. I no longer harbour that small ( often suppressed ) feeling of excitement and anticipation that the P300 has provided for so many years.

So, as an open plea to Bill, will you please take my deposit for a Tornek Rayville. I really don't mind how long the wait, but would prefer something a little less than 10 years ;-)



To those who have received your P300s - enjoy them. For those still waiting - I hope it will not be much longer now.

:-D

Was giddy to get through right before! I adore my Gen 2 paradive (not the rtw one) and can't wait to add this to my collection.

Agreed. I got mine today too and it is of very high quality.

I ordered a large and got it over a week ago. It's awesome and worth the wait!

How do we know the information on choices? Did I miss something?

Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk
IIR in the the TR Pre-Order announcement email, it was mentioned you'd be able to choose bezel insert and strap options. No mention of what the strap options will be yet, but the bezel options were listed only as an FYI.

I don't believe you missed anything. People are simply wondering that when it comes time to choose a config, what bezel insert are they planning on picking.. acrylic or aluminum.
Got it, thanks!

Am I reading these illustrations too literally to think the acrylic bezel version (right) will have the circular moisture indicator and the aluminium bezel version (left) will not?

Interesting, maybe!
New update:


Tornek-Rayville Update

Dear TR Series 3 Plankowners,
Update:

We will be assembing additional samples this week with the aim of getting catalog shots taken as well as additional shots for the IG account. We had been waiting on improved acrylic insert samples which have since arrived. The catalog shots will be required for the final order page which we hope to have completed and active in the April/May timeframe.

Currently we are working on details for the project including (hopefully) a custom strap as well as the instruction card. The illustrations for the instruction sheet have been completed and now we need to layout the rest of the details of the sheet including copy and how and where we will print them.

There are some other "things" we are working as on well but we'll be saving that for later in the process.

As many of you noticed we have launched an updated web store. We hope that this will make your experience with the final order submissions more convenient as well as enjoyable. That was the change we had hinted at in our last update.
Thanks again for your support and patience. Stay safe!
Best,
Bill and the Mk II Team

So I'll admit, I'm not sure between aluminum and acrylic. Any perspectives on that I should think about before making my selection?

Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk
Are the dials different? Can you post a pic of the watch with the aluminum bezel?
I'm not sure

Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk
This may be a dumb question, but where do you see on the site which is acrylic and which aluminum. I'm logged in but don't see it in specs for either the 1101 or 1001.

Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk
where are you guys ordering this? I don't see it on the website
Only plank holders have access now, but I think the site is supposed to go generally live on the 20th.

As a bracelet guy that would be fantastic!
Yes!

Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk
I think those of us who are plank holders were told ours may ship by the end of this month.
