RATINGS (out of five stars):


Design * * * * *

A bold dial design, enhanced by lume-on-steroids + black PVD coating + a case that stands proud on the wrist + a wide non-tapering bracelet = horological badassery.


Legibility * * * *

With the bold font numeral 12 at the top, large indices and broad sword-shaped hands, you can read the time from across the room, day OR night. Need to know the date? Get a flashlight and magnifier, even during the day.


Comfort * * * *

It’s heavy. However, the snugly-fitted bracelet, with on-the-fly micro-adjustability, makes the weight unnoticeable. Or you can lighten the load with the included rubber strap.


Overall * * * *

It may be “just another diver.” But, the two-tone (orange and white) dial markings and lume, along with the chunky construction and accurately-regulated movement, make this watch a winner for me.
