Every watches are differents and for different tastes. The ceramic bezel is showing up more and more on the market and will certainly replace totally most of bezel inserts very soon.
As the hardened mineral glass replaced the plexi and the sapphire crystal replaced the mineral on most productions...
People want it, watch-makers are coming with it.
There's also a high demand for high water-resistance cases lately and it shows also on the market.
All in all to say that the Viking model may have combined features that other micro-brands don't offer right now(I didn't check that...) but it's guaranteed to come very soon at not so high price.
Or how the huge Hong-Kong factories would survive in front of mondial technology advance and rushing market demand?
Now there's a bunch of ceramic bezels cheapos on the market but I didn't considerate them because of them lower water-resistance rate...
That said, I'm proud to break out my 3000th post!
