STØLÅS Genoa Vs. IWC Aquatimer

After a few posts and reviews in certain media I wanted to straighten some confusion. Many people seem to refer the Harbormaster™ collection to the IWC Aquatimer since both have full lumed bezels.

To note, neither company knew the other was creating a bezel that had the entire warning track of the divers bezel full lumed. Both companies were creating their own design silent from the other in '08-'09. However IWC released their collection first because of their size and the design of their bezel. IWC's lumed bezel consists of a sapphire over the entire track of the bezel including the lumed area.

Our design required some new technology in chemical engineering to create a Lumed Bezel™ that was not protected by a sapphire. This included a multitude of time and effort creating a binder for hardening the luminescent pigments so as to not scratch off or be damaged. The end result allows for a clean simplified look.

Our design is Patent Pending as I believe IWC's is as well.

We actually didn't even know IWC's bezel glowed until last week. We had always assumed it was just colored like all their other divers as well as other brands.

aBlog-to-Read Spinnaker Review

For those who missed it yesterday, ablogtoread published a review on the Spinnaker! They are one of the most respected watch review sites online so we were quite happy to see they loved the watch as much as we do (and many of you as well!)

Magazine Ad

The ad was placed in a watch magazine in Singapore by our Dealer/Distributor. This Magazine is read by thousands of tourists visiting the island daily and creates a HUGE market for our collection. The island is also packed full of yachtsmen and fishermen that have shown much enthusiasm with the Harbormaster™

If you haven't yet "test driven" a Harbormaster™ you will surely enjoy the drive, I mean dive...
