It would have to be one great watch to be priced around $800. Seems to me to be a marketing stunt, but feel free to make up your own mind. 100 Red divers will be produced in a limited run, that watch will never see the water other than the pool, red is the first color humans loose the ability to see in low light. http://www.scorpionwatch.com/

They put the color choice up to a vote and this was the result. I was shocked some weeks back when they announced they were taking pre-orders at $800 a pop. I believe they have also adjusted the water resistancy to 300m to address the concern over the price tag. Its my world and in my world $800 can get me a far better diver so I am out of the chase...and I don't see any value in red...now if were orange?? Pax

They'll name a winner... soon? Right? How can one make claims of outstanding quality when there exist only CAD drawings?? "Well, in theory this should be of superior quality" SHOW ME!!! I think they are doomed... Pax

I think they were talking about the CAD DRAWINGs were of superior quality not the watch.:D:D:D:D:D:D Come on how can you say something like that w/o a watch in hand but then again other people have said worst. (They made it and people bought it)

People that buy those for 800 are just gambling that it'll be somehow blessed with the "Dreadnaught" factor I think. They'll go for half that used a month after initial release.
