Yes, once you get rid of that "Walmart" colored Bezel its starts looking like a real watch again! A little deeper blue color and they'd have it! :D |

That watch needs to loose the black chapter ring IMHO to make it work:( JMHO of course:) |

Tony, if it were a slightly darker blue the black ring would blend better. |

The whole color of the watch (in its original color scheme) screams WALMART! So, that is the problem. You correct one thing and you notice another problem :D:D:D:shock: |

Well, I put a silver bezel on my black Samurai so I guess you could buy a black bezel and put one (blue monster) on if you really wanted to. You can keep the red/blue bezel and change it back if you need to. Last edited on Sat Nov 19th, 2005 03:19 am by mcwright |

I personally do not like the combination of colours (sorry, UK English :)) that this watch uses. The Black Monster has grown on me and this seems to me a forced watch, if you know what I mean! |
