Sorry if I annoy you.
But for those from Germany who want to order this case, now it is possible.

Today I had a discussion with Belkin regarding the dial size needed for this case. Even though the case is fine with the 39mm dial, the visible area of 36mm, will make the perimeter of the numbers/indices of a 39mm dial to "touch" with the 36mm area. This is wrong, as it has to be a blank area between the 36mm visible area and the perimeter on the numbers/indices.

This makes me think of a 37mm dial instead of the 39mm. Does anyone have a 37mm dial LP or RP to place it in the case to see what it looks like? (otherwise, I believe, a special dial for this case has to be designed)

Received today. Are you sure this is stainless steel? It feels very light.
