It’s an interesting brand indeed . It’s hard to find out much info about them ( website’s quite basic and difficult to switch from Italian to English! ) , they have been around for many years but rarely get talked about . I find they offer a lot of value at their price point and think of them generally being in one of the better microbrands category.
The inspiration behind this one is fairly obvious and hardly needs to be stated ; and it is indeed pretty much as thick as a Sea-Dweller . The case and bracelet finishing is matte throught and gives off an “ industrial “ vibe . I have a thin wrist and was initially unsure how about how well it would wear , but the bulk was surprisingly not an issue . I find the Submarine(r?) logo on this series is fun and adds character without slipping into parody (sometimes a problem with microbrands ! ) , with also a light impression on the side as below around the helium escape valve , good solid adjustable clasp too .
All in, am pretty happy with it and indeed have a couple of other pieces from the brand as well which will post some other time ! 🙂
