That's the regular price of these kind of microbrands. They set high retail prices but they are on perpetual sale. That isn't to say that the watch itself isn't worth $400. It just isn't a deal.

Actually the Titanium goes on sale far less frequently.

I wasn't either, but I've been really happy with mine. It's a bit of a chonk--but the titanium means it doesn't wear as big as it is.

I mean, you can. But you will be saving for a while if you are putting off buying this $400 watch until you can afford the $14K Sea-Dweller.

And yes, this reads more than a little like a Sea-Dweller. There are only so many ways you make a diver. Take a look at a Spinnaker or a Zodiac or a Watchdives or a Scurfa or a Deep Blue or any of a dozen other dive watches and it will look a bit like a Subby. Or get a Bathyscape (or a different Spinnaker) to get a homage of the 50 Fathoms. Today I am wearing a Super Squale that has its own design language that's a few decades old, but 95% of people who see it wouldn't be able to tell you it isn't the Rolex without seeing the crown.

The quality of the Sea-Dweller is much higher, of course. But I've owned one, and frankly I'd pick this watch over the Rolex pretty much any day.

So, the negatives. There are some sharp bits on the bracelet (which is otherwise nicely finished). I suspect they will round over, as titanium tends to. And in the particular version I have (the GMT), there is white-on-white numbers on half the bezel, which is just dumb.

Gotcha and thanks yes this watch does have some good quality features and parts don't get me wrong this is beautiful watch but it's just too close to an iconic watch piece and it isn't that known no to mention I've tried seeing how their customer service reviews is thru online googling i wanted to see if they backed their watches and what their warranty like but couldn't really find anything other than that people took this watch to a third party watchmaker lol I guess that one tell sign for warranty and or repairs issues but what really annoying is the supposed (MSRP) $1,899 lol hahaha reality it's a $400 watch at that
