Yesterday, I posted the fact the new Divergraph. Today, I have a few pics and observations.   The pros: Fit and finish are superb. There is zero play in the bezel and it turns smoothly. The dial is very easy to read due to the white hand on the black face. The tritium shows up nicely and I have no trouble ready the time in the dark. Everything lines up perfectly, i.e., the second hand stops on a second marker and the bezel dot lines up perfectly with the 12 o'clock position. I know some do not care all that much about these issues but to me, these things are an important aspect of quality control. After all, if a maker is sloppy about the things you can see, imagine what problems are within the case. A few cons: The lume dot on the bezel does not show up very well. On my Black Monster and Zilla, I don't do anything special to charge the lume. I just wear the watch. On the Divergraph, this does not seem to be enough, Some time under a light source may be necessary. I would not rely on this watches' bezel to keep track of my bottom time if diving. The bezel moves smoothly but too easily, IMO. If I were designing a watch, I would recess the crystal a little, to protect it. I plan to install a screen protector on mine. When I ordered my watch, I ordered the Zulu strap option and that is what I received. No extra rubber strap for the Billster. I have mounted a Zulu with the subdued hardware and I think that looks better that the shiny hardware provided. Anders, this my first experience with the Dievas brand and Gnomen as well. I'll be back fore more of you quality products and fine service. Thanks for looking, Bill

Good review mate and great pics too. imo, for the bezel moving too smoothy.....i reckon maybe thats one of the traits of a 120click bezel?? i jus tcompared it to my other 120click bezels, if any the dievas is tauter. And do u think a matt dial will look better than the glossy now? ;);) chris

Nice watch and write up. Thanks for the informative post. Is the bezel pip just luminous material and not tritium tubed?

Hey Paxman, The dot on the bezel is just luminous material. I'm told there is a small dimple in the bezel and the dab of stuff rests in the dimple. The dot is pretty much flush with the bezel. I charged it up last night and it does glow. Bill
