I tried the blue dial version on this week. It was on my
List of definitely based in the photos I'd seen. But having tried it on it didn't match my expectations sadly. The watch had the steel bracelet. Too much weight for me and the dial was too glossy which meant too many reflections. A pity because I fell in love before I saw it in the flesh.

I was hoping to see the standard version of the SeaQ in the flesh. But, they did have this, which still had the plastic on the deployant: The blue dial is beautifully executed. Next to my Omega SMPc: ...

I tried on both models...
and the 39,5mm version is captivating It of course depends on your wrist size... But the 39,5 model is quite thin and sits very comfortably on the wrist The larger model is quite beautiful too but I am not quite certain about the big date- top caliber tho...

hmmm...
I see your point too. That trident is nice. I know it wouldn't help with thickness but there used to be a "Ball Watches - Magneto" that had an iris mechanism. Imagine one of those where you could have both the trident and the ability to view the movement!...
I have tried both models...
...and I much prefer the 39.5mm one. Beautiful execution, looked great on my 17.5cm wrist There's 2 things I didn't like: - the 40 hours power reserve. The standard nowadays seems to be 70 hours, and 40 just feels outdated. This is 2019, not 1979. - the p...
That minutes hand...
does not work. Too elongated, out of balance. Feels like a much lesser priced watch. The big date--which GO is utterly THE BEST at... simply does not work on a diver, IMO. Another watch I WANTED TO LOVE, but do not like. Dial-while it may be true to histo...
