This is an upcoming dive model from Obris Morgan.

I am told case samples should be done by August 20th and if all goes well preorder begins in September.

http://www.obrismorgan.com/english/nevon.html

Here is only 3 pics that are available right now, one being a rendering and specs from website.











The inspiration for the new Nevon was our desire to bring to you the style and dependability of a vintage high end dive watch. The Nevon inherits the Flieger MN’s case body but is stretched to a more substantial 43mm case that holds in its 316L stainless steel heart the venerable Miyota 8215 automatic movement. Stark white super luminova filled hands and markers set atop an ink black dial makes for a modern day classic.


This is info Justin at Obris just sent me:

I did some upgrade on this model compare to information publish in web before.
It's 120 click bezel and metal movement holder.
It also come with 5mm thickness bracelet.
Because it's with Miyota 8215, therefore the price keep similar to Branco, should between 239.00 - 259.00
But the price is not decided yet, may be need to do some change after first sample come out =D
Also the exactly design are difference from the render photo in web.

I'm anxiously awaiting this as well. If it does price similarly to the Branco I will be nabbing one of these. It's a unique design and a great movement for the money.

Seems like a no brainer. :)

Please watch gods make the 'Obris Morgan' print on the dial smaller than current models or leave it out all together.

This is the latest update that Justin sent me yesterday.
He said he was preparing for travel and would post it soon which us why I hadn't posted it.



The final specification was decided. We do some upgrade from the first information release.
The highlight is the change.

Automatic Calibre : Miyota 8215
Frequency : 21,600 bph (beats per hour)
Accuracy : +/- 10 sec/day
Dial : Thick printed SuperLuminova Lumed (BW G9) indices
Hands
Hour : Mirror Diamond cut Skeleton hand fill superluminova lume (BW G9)
Minute : Yellow / Neon Orange Diamond cut Skeleton hand fill superluminova lume (BW G9)
Second : Mirror Diamond cut Skeleton hand fill superluminova lume (BW G9)
Case : 316L Stainless Steel- Brush - Blasted - PVD Black Coating
Bezel : 120 Clicks uni-directional bezel
Movement holder : 316L Stainless Steel
Dimensions : 43mm diameter, 14mm thickness
Lug width : 22mm
Lug to Lug width : 49mm
Crown : Stainless Steel - Brush Finishing - Blasted Finishing - PVD Black Coating
Water Resistance: 20 ATM / 200 meters
Case back: Solid 316L Stainless Steel
Crystal : Sapphire(Single side anti-reflective coated)
Bracelet : 5 links 316L Stainless Steel (5mm thickness)

From Nevon we will change the package. That's high impact and light.
The final information will release on this month end.

The upgraded specification become standard in the market.
Most of watch company produce 120 clicks bezel. So we need to follow.
some little difference is we use stainless steel movement holder rather than copper.
And we try aluminium hands. It's 60% lighter than SS hands. This change let the second hands could contain bigger lume area.
