I owned the black dial version of this and I flipped it due a few nagging issues.  For one thing, its a big cushion case, which is nice, but the thin bezel feels cheap.  The lume is also average at best.  The movement is actually a modified Chinese movement, the Seagull ST16 or ST15 or something like that that Claro Semag modifies for the CL-888.  Yeah I know it says Swiss Movement but check the wiki over at WUS' Chinese Mechanical Watch forum for more details if you want. 

This thing wasn't worth the asking price new, and certainly isn't worth $800.  Maybe someone who doesn't know the history of this watch might pay the ridiculous price.
