Still thinking ....

First of all, thanks, Tim, for showing the watch here! In fact, I have been asking for a true Marine Diver chronograph for several years. Now that it is finally here I am not entirely sure whether I should be happy or disappointed.

Generally, I consider the design interesting, and especially the counter markers on the crystal back are a great element. However, my first reaction on these pics was that the watch is too colourful. After having studied the pictures for a longer time, I think that the bright blue is too much. In my humbel opinion, the watch could gain from a reduction to two main colours. Personally, I would make the large markers black instead of blue, maybe with luminous figures, and luminous mass on the small hands.

I think the red insert on the bezel is great, I love the great contrast offered by the bezel. The lack of contrast is the only big functional problem of the standard Marine Diver.

Regards,
Marcus
