All of our Valimor Caliburnus watches include a free upgrade to sapphire glass, and come with a top grain leather strap with a crocodile hornback pattern, quick release pin, and engraved buckle. We also sell the Valimor Caliburnus in other colors, Valimor's vintage style Italian calfskin straps and Valimor's very unique aged metal bracelet, which particularly suits this watch.

Please choose above whether you'd like this watch with or without a date window. 

Why We Love This Watch

You'll spot the polished natural lapis lazuli gemstone dial immediately. We don't know of any other watches made from this material, and each one will be unique with it's own grain pattern and range of colors with a vivid blue base.

However, there's a lot more to this watch that the eye can appreciate too, making it a unique and remarkable design. The brand name Valimor itself stands for "VALIant" and "arMOR", and the dark ages/medieval arms and armor theme is picked up on extremely well from the engraved dragon scale plates around the engraved bezel and crown and back cover, to the custom diamond cut sword hands (filled with Swiss Super-Luminova of course) that feature a mix of polished and brushed textures you don't normally see at this price range. Even the crown is set with a natural Swarovski crystal, reminiscent of the pommel of a sword.

The case (and engraved buckle) have a wonderful antiqued aged effect to match, that is patented and unique to Valimor, using a scratch-resistant PVD (particle vapor deposit) color finish on marine grade 316L stainless steel. The top grain leather strap (a better grade of real leather than genuine leather) has the look of a custom hand-made strap which also picks up on the dragon cues due to the unusual choice of crocodile hornback texturing. A great deal of thought has gone into this design by Raymond Jones, the creator behind the brand. We strongly recommend checking out the optional unique bracelet design Raymond has come up with for this timepiece.

All the above would be enough to wow many, but one of the best highlights is a hidden one: The exhibition case back shows off a very nicely custom decorated movement and rotor. Even the case cover has dragon scales engraved around the edge.
