 Well time2watch, as you can see the members here at 3T don't mind sharing their true and honest opinion.crap.gif  I definitely appreciate honesty and you will, no doubt, get that here!!!thumbsup.gif  I also love the Megalodon Series I in your avatar...such an awesome piece!

Hey, I definitely would say that individualism in watchdom is what keeps things interesting, but as many have already voiced...at $895 for a quartz that lacks some key design execution elements, I just cannot get excited about this one or see it as a compelling purchase consideration.  There are alot of brands out there that are doing similar quartz designs (also for less $$)...invicta was mentioned which may not be built as well as this one, but Swiss Legend also comes to mind...just my opinion.

The lack of some way to grip the bezel (also the lack of a bezel lume pip) plus a seconds hand with no lume at all (not crazy about the hands design either) are the negatives for me.

The DLC finish (which looks well done) and the rubber strap design/appearance quality are the positives...although I'm never crazy about white rubber.

Don't mean to spoil your excitement for this one...different strokes for different folks always keeps things interesting!
