Some additional thoughts...it's definitely a fun watch and a nice change up from my current collection of mostly black dial/bezel SS sports watches. I like that its unique and that I'm not likely to see others in the wild. Had a few quibbles with the bracelet, so think I'll stick with the NATO for a while. Bracelet isnt terrible and the SEL did give it a solid feel, but I'm spoiled by the Oyster on my Sub - theres no comparison. Crown is a bit small and doesnt have the smoothest action, but typical for this price point I guess- similar action to my Sinn 104. I absolutely love the dial color in the light. It's like a blueish -black ...hard to describe but amazing to look at when the light catches it. I know the bezel is polarizing for some, but I dig the color scheme. Even got a compliment from my wife who usually just rolls her eyes when I buy a new watch, so that's saying something. Overall, very happy and look forward to making some memories with this one! Oh, and couldn't resist one more wrist shot!
