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

This is just a quick commentary on these Cheapest Nato Straps ribbed nylon straps.

These were recently on sale (and still are) between $6 and $8 and honestly they are some of the best values I have found for nylon straps. For all practical puposes they feel the same as the TR oem strap. The TR strap has a much nicer buckle but the keepers look very similar. The TR Strap has been trimmed to be a single pass but that is easily done to the CNS strap.

I've been wearing the CNS strap for about 1 week straight and at this point it has molded to my wrist. It is no more or less comfortable than the TR strap. The weaves look very similar but not identical.

With the discounts CNS offers i ordered 6 of these for like $38 delivered to the USA.

A Barton Cordura... I got it originally for my paradive but with the taper it looked too small. But better match for the TR. Cordura® Fabric and Silicone Hybrid

Quality is exceptional, very well made watch.
I am impressed.
Beautiful to look at, just not sure it sits well on my wrist, may be too flat.

Ha!

I was juuust doing a little research…

I don’t have the excuse I did from the original preorder of no real pics available.



Congrats on your heading out soon!

I’m curious for owners how much lug “float”there is?

I saw one pic where it looks like the case back raise the lugs off the wrist a fair bit…
But that may just be how that person was letting it sit on their wrist.

Does it sit down snug against the wrist or is the case raised up a fair bit?

Thanks!
