The first TigerShark watches will have any colour face you want so long
as its black. I'm already starting to think about more models and
choices and would love to hear from members of this group.

What do you want? Blue and white as well as black? Mother-of-pearl?
Carbon Fiber? Let me hear from you.

Carbon Fiber is HOT! Blue is as well. Those are my picks for sure.

I just got the new Tauchmeister carbon fiber dial diver.... I have to admit it looks pretty good.
 
I think blue is a virtual certainty for the next batch. I'm going to start working on a design for the carbon fiber face soon and see if it's financially practical.
 
Thanks for your feedback.

Personally, I am partial to the Omega SeaMaster Blue, (the "bond" blue)
or perhaps the Marcello blue if it is as nice as the photographs. I
would avoid the Invicta Blue, or Burple as I refer to it. I would
also like seeing a Doxa/Seiko Monster orange with black print on
silver bezel. White or champagne (not the dark gold) in the two tone
might be nice, especially with a matched bezel.

I also wouldn't mind seeing a 300 MoD date face option in black or
blue.

Looking forward to the watch swimming our way.

I looked at the carbon fiber dail on the Tauchmeister... I guess I
prefer the pure black like the tiger shark, or the rolex knock off of
it. : )

I wonder if there will be a 24 hour version of the tiger shark. I am
sure there will be a price bump for the better ETA movement, but I know
that I would be interested in a GMT version if there if the case is as
good as the shark promises to be... especailly with the 24 hour
movement and a dive bezel. Of course, the face will have to be changed
: )

The next colours on the horizon are blue - a nice dark blue.... NOT
Invicta burple - and white.

As to the GMT version..... I'm working on it. The first version will
likely resemble the Explorer II as opposed to the GMTMaster series.

White Faced or Black Faced?

Aloha!!
A white face will give the watch "pop"...make it stand out. But black
is soooo classical!

I guess I would prefer a white face, but I also prefer the Omega White
GMT with the larger markers than the current explorer II series. IMO,
the 300 MoD is just a better design for the Explorer style watch.

Especially with a rotating bezel (black on silver). That would really
pop and be so much better than the fized bezel E-II

Almost certainly, the Explorer II style will be released in a
white-face version first. Part of the difficulty with bringing these
watches to market is the rather stiff minimum quantity requirements.

Ideally, I would like to have a "core" design for each type of watch:
diver, GMT (fixed bezel, independent hand), GMT (rotating bezel fixed
hand), Chronograph (quartz), Chronograph (automatic), dress, and
vintage.
