The OX FROG300 is now even more perfect, if possible. Our first and groundbreaking creation is already deeply immersed and actively in the phase of functional samples, so soon we will all be able to see and touch them.
This newsletter - primarily - is addressed to the many proud owners of a unit of the innovative and supercharged first Pro Diver's watch from OX Oceanix Watches LLC.
UPDATES. LATEST IMPROVEMENTS
GREATER COMFORT. In the case, to increase user comfort without sacrificing robustness, we have managed to reduce the case height to 14.73 mm instead of the previous 15.80mm (a difference of 1.07 mm less).
SECURE CLOSURE. The initial quick-release closure with a locking button, resembling a motorcycle helmet mechanism, has been improved. Now it's better because the previous quick-release could easily result in the unintended dropping of the watch, as it would completely release from the wrist. Now we use an enhanced, fully integrated folding clasp system that requires the simultaneous pressing of two buttons to open. The extender adjustment is now internal, durable, and allows for extension up to 18 mm, fitting over any wetsuit, jacket, or technical suit. For the strap extender, the adjustment is made simply before putting on the watch. The clasp still features three summer/winter micro-adjustment positions, also internal and not visible.
FKM STRAP GRIP. The strap and lugs have subtly changed. While the material remains unchanged, the finest high-density and flexible flourelastomer, the profile has transitioned from 22-22 to 22-18 millimeters to enhance comfort on medium-sized wrists. Additionally, the strap section is now exponential, with more material on the sides where it connects to the case, improving grip on any wrist, and the lugs have increased in thickness, enhancing robustness.
WEBSITE UPDATE
To update our beloved informational website and online store (currently the only way to get an OX FROG300 unit), it will be temporarily unavailable for a couple of weeks (2) as we work on a major content update and overall reorganization: simpler and more minimalist. Any suggestions or comments are welcome!
EXPRESS DELIVERY OF THE FIRST UNITS
We're still on schedule! Although the pre-series or functional samples are still delayed, the delivery of the first units remains initially set for the end of JUNE.
It is also true that the delivery of the 9075 True GMT movements is accumulating an extended announced delay, but we have faith in having them on time!
A FEW WORDS FROM THE CREATOR AND PROJECT LEADER
From my side, I've been in Shenzhen for quite a few weeks, working hard with the entire production team, engineers, and watch technicians until I see in person the assembly of the first functional samples, which I'm very proud of, and immediately share live with all of you!
Life in Shenzhen, where the production plant is located, is radically different from what I was used to in my beloved (and missed) Andalusia, as well as in Barcelona or the USA. My day-to-day is exclusively devoted to the FROG300. My new favorite motto is... Time is gold!
Best regards to everyone!
