I understand your sleeplessness! Ever since this hit the market I've had similar dreams.

But aside from your quality concerns (which I'd read nothing about, so… very interesting) the thing for me is 40mm. This fights mightily with the watch's "heritage," and this tension would have me spending my shekels elsewhere. (And it's a lot of them!)
There is another thing—admittedly a very personal one—and that's the choice of 30 pulsations over 15. Both scales come from the past. But I've never been able to imagine a doctor in an emergency, waiting for 30 whole seconds to determine a heart rate! And if one were really to get serious about such a thing, the scale should begin at several points on the dial. (Didn't the Purist emergency watch of a few years ago have this feature?) So somewhat reluctantly I think I'd turn to something else. And there are so many (I think this was a point made in Hodinkee's review) fish in the sea at this price point!
Nonetheless… a beauty. FH
