- Expected release is in 5 month - 6 month ( you get it before Xmas;)) -Eta 2824 movement -47mm case with 49mm bezel - Steel bracelet - bezel with 3 different options to chose , luminos acrylic or enamel , alloy inlay and steel - sapphire crystal - WR minimum 500m maybe a bit more - very very close to the design below (first 4 dials) small changes can be brushed dark grey and different hands

Just when I thought I was getting watch saavy this threw me off. What are the pro's and con's of these bezel choices?

Thanks.

there are no pros or cons...purely aesthetic and personal choice/preference of the WIS hand6.gif

Personal taste! Different for each person. ;)

Alright, maybe i am not being real clear. Imagine for a second you talked to someone who had no watch knowledge, how would you describe the difference in the bezel types?

Just different in design, that's it. It is up to personal taste, who may like which design best. They all function the same - to mark dive time (and also decompression stop).

luminous acrlylic/enamel bezel is raised a bit and has luminous markers/numerals all in a acrylic base....alloy inlay or steel would be steel with raised markers/arabics with  an inlay either painted or some type of alloy inlay that displays the numerals or markers/no lume....all of this is easily googled and highly suggested for newbs to do so they can see actual pics...even with my explanation above if you have no knowledge it doesn't help unless you see what I am talking about....personal research is your best friend in this hobby hand6.gif
