Nice piece, but the indices are a bit too chunky for me.
Attractive price, too.

The Miyako is more my style, from their product line.

I am on that list too, in the 500’s. I liked the case on the Khura but was sort of meh on the dial colors, like you said chunky indices, but in white I really like it

Done! Thanks for the heads up I’m #211 on the list so hopefully it is only a 2 month wait. Titanium case divers are sweet! I built a modded Seiko SKX with a titanium case that I really like. My titanium SKX is as light as my G-Shock.

The interesting thing about Helm watches is that due to their high demand and low availability you can often sell a used example for slightly more than they cost new if you don’t bond with it. That’s quite rare for micro brand watches.

I have a Komodo & a Vanuatu that I LOVE.

I am so glad I follow the Helm Owners group on Facebook, thats how I found out and got on the list. I am in 500’s on the Miyako. The poll is showing 80 percentfavor white dial. I bet next week the waiting list will be in the thousands on that one.

I think I’m gonna go with the white dial when my number comes up.

Love the fact that Helm didn't add any day or date feature to that watch. Much cleaner look.

I agree 100 percent, I was going to pass on my Khuraburi number when I got it because the colors were so so, but white and no date I cant resist

Helm put the new titanium Khuraburi on the main site that’s probably why it was glitching. It wasn’t there yesterday and the only way I could find it was the link in the OP.

I’m #5224 on the wait list for the titanium Vanuatu. Eek

I went ahead and got back on the wait list for another Komodo and steel Vanuatu, I’m some number in the 4,000s. I suppose it could be a while yet.

I think I’ll get the email the next time emails go out.

I snagged a new Phoibos Apollo titanium case & bracelet with that sweet sandy silver dial. I wonder if my pre-order Phoibos will be in before my number comes up in the cue from Helm?

I’m really liking the way Phoibos did this. I can’t wait to get it on my wrist this fall!
