My Ocean7 G-1 arrived today, awesome watch! First impressions, fit and finish are excellent, solid end link screwed link bracelet with divers' extension. Solid feel bezel with very little play. The reason I bought this over the Steinhart was because of the Plongeur design hands. I love the way they look over the Steinhart's Mercedes hands. Really, other than the hands and O7 dial it is a Steinhart Ocean 1 GMT as I have read they are made by the same contract manufacturer. Lume is good, not Seiko Monster level, but what else is? Although I don't think it is in the same league as Ken's MarcelloC, it also didn't have the same MSRP. Plus, it was cheaper than the Steinhart by 40 bucks. Knowing me, if I bought the Steinhart I would have been modding the hands and dial anyway so I figure I saved more than just the 40 bucks :D I am very pleased with this watch. Now, if I could just save up enough for the LM-2 chrono! Cheers, Griff Attachment: G-1dual.jpg (Downloaded 59 times)

Nice grab, Griff. I've got the same thing incoming from OnkelC and hope it arrives from Bonn next week. Which bezel did you get? I got the Pepsi bezel and bought the watch as a hardcore stand in for my other Pepsi bezel.

I like the watch the way it is, but I am thinking the black/orange bezel will really pop. Cheers, Griff
