 I have never been a fan of Ocean7, primarily because Mitch has always come across as kind of a con-man to me.  I was, at one time, considering a G1, as it appeared to be oem'd by the Steinhart source, and recently, I considered an LM3 on a Sales Forum.

Here's the bottom line...I don't trust him or his products.  His watch are, for the most part "homages" (to be kind) of other brands...this is a perfect example.  Why would any watchmaker in his right mind, oem a matching case and bracelet with 2 different grades of PVD???  It's either an act of stupidity or a load of crap...either way, it is BS and speaks volumes to the integrity of the product.

At one point, Ocean7 had this "secret" guess which movement you might get thing going on, very similar to Bathy's.  Full disclosure was not in their ethical bag of tricks.  OG finally called both of them on it as it was deceptive advertising.

But then...that's just my opinion.  What's yours? subtlelaugh.gif
