Second let me say that the Cave Dweller looks to be an extremely strong contender in the new upcoming dive watches catagory. Since you asked for input here are some of my thoughts:
• The stepped bezel looks good as long as those machined notches on the perimeter are deep enough for a good grip.
• On the bezel I would like to see the 12:00 marker triangle outlined in black for better definition.
• I like the architechture of the lugs, a cool blend of curves and flats.
• The case might already be "set in stone" but I would like to see some simple crown guards around the crown.
• I like the all brushed finish of the case. Easy to touch up.
• I agree with a comment on the dial, the hour markers should be SLIGHTLY smaller.
• The dial 12:00 marker would benefit from a vertical black separation line down the center for immediate recognition and differentiation.
• I like the classic black dial color.
• Slightly narrower hands, (currently a little over powering proportionally).
• The minute hand should have lume that extends closer to the pivot post to differentiate it more from the hour hand.
• The second hand should have the base blacked out. Or it could even have the base and shaft blacked out so that the sweepping head looks like it is floating around the dial.
• I have heard that the color red turns black when viewed underwater, I have never confirmed it, but if so, I would go with a different color like yellow or orange for the second hand accent color.
Again, let me say these thoughts are just my opinion. :D
