I think we all agree! Price is the main issue for sure.
That said after wearing it all day, I've enjoyed it and got compliments for my friend who was in the army. He loved the story and wanted one until... I told him the price! :)
It's too bad as it is a cool watch but apparently they have no problems selling them. The brown model by the way is beautiful!
I owned a Resco Patriot for about 1 month, purchased it on the secondary market and paid $900 for it. I liked the size and the dial/hand combo, but in the end it had too many rough edges from the low beat movement to the rough crown, to the bezel feeling tinny. I sold it for $900 so I didnt lose anything on it. Your observations are spot on in regards to the watch overall.
P.S.
I spent $1000 and picked up a Korsbek Oceaneer top grade 2892 and couldn't be happier with it.
