I too wish them much success but at $700. you can buy a Swiss watch with an eta and some lineage and history instead of a start-up company using an unproven Sellita SW200 movement because O7 is unable to acquire eta'swatch2.gifIf O7 had a choice they most certainlay would go with the more proven eta and until the kinks are worked out of Sellitas new SW200 which has not one eta part on it I would say wait and see hand6.gif
I kind of like what Ocean 7 is offering and the fact that they are a start up company that seems to really want to please its customers and potential customers by producing a unique dive watch. I don't own one but I'm certainly interested. Ocean 7 could arguably become a haven for those dissatisfied with that "other" dive watch company.
Hell, they might even hire JV to come in nights to sweep the floors and clean the toilets for $6.00 per hour.
Seriously though, Ocean 7 looks like a potential winner in the dive watch category and I wish them success.
Quite true O.E., a wait and see attitude is prudent. I hate to flaunt my ignorance but I was of the impression that Ocean 7 was using ETA movements in all of their models. What really impresses me about Ocean 7 is their desire to satisfy their clientle and their acceptance of criticism on their official forum.
And I have 2 words for J.V.: Pizza delivery.
