Just collected it the other day and haven't told the wife yet. (Watches keep appearing on my wrist.)

I couldn't believe how heavy it was when I first held it so I thought I'd weigh it between changing straps.

Comes in at just under 340g with the metal bracelet and 194g for the case without bracelet.

I love the leather strap it comes with but it's meant to be worn with the metal side panels. Personally I think it looks better without the panels.

Very satisfied with the watch, amazing value, quality and finish. One minor detail that I noticed is that the 12 O'clock bezel marker is out by just a tiny fraction, or maybe it's just me.

I don't think it's PVD...just the lighting.

I agree the lugs make the leather strap look awkward...but this watch was meant to be worn on the bracelet.  I would LOVE to be able to get a rubber strap on this beast but the unique lug design are not conducive to this...oh well!

that's right. It's not PVD, it's brushed. Camera_photos.gi

I think that everyone might have the bezel not aligning with the dial problem.  After careful inspection it seems that the dial is not dead center at 12 o'clock.  This seems to be the case due to the location of the date window.  If they centered it correctly the date window would be off.  Honestly though, it's very minor.

Mine is very slightly off...half a hash mark...at 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35.  The other points line up.  I have absolutely no problem with that!

mine lines up perfectly....I would like to see pics of these that are off as the pics I have seen so far all seem to line up and pics can be very harsh depending on the angle....those of you who feel this way may want to rotate your bezels a few times as it may correct any factory setting hand6.gif

Tried rotating the bezel a few times but still off by the slightest of margins...I'll try to post a front on shot after work today.  Again, this is not a big deal (not even a little deal) for me.

I've even tried counting the clicks of the bezel and found that for the triangle to line up with the 12 o'clock it's +1 click. I know I'm just anal that way when it comes to my watches, but again I don't have a huge problem with it.
