TY Guys!....the CD II came out perfect and with the addition of the new divers clasp it is even better imho...no need for half links  with the micro adjustable buckle...with just a push of the rear button you have 5 more adjustments to suit any need from wetsuit to just loosening it up a bit for those whose wrist size changes with the weather! perfect.gif

 ....and inside beats the heart of a top grade eta 2824-2 with Incabloc shock,glucydor balance and ball bearing rotor held in place with a nice metal retainer....lume again is awesome! hand6.gifhand6.gif

O - I accepted a CD V1.0 as a trade a while back, and the lume on that one was not what I would call "super duper". Can you let us know if the CD V2.0 is better in that regard? I did read further up in your second post that you consider the V2.0 to have "awesome" lume - but how does it rate against that old standard the Seiko Monster? Your opinion would be appreciated.

Otherwise, that combo is a winner. Would also love to see it with the SS bezel and that magnificent gray dial, too!

Cheers! IanM hand6.gif

I have a first gen Cave Dweller. I found that it took a few "charges" for the lume to come up to full brightness. Now I'd have to say it's pretty close to my Seikos for brightness, although it does not surpass them.

Oscar, enjoy your CD2. I've got the Miyota version of your watch on order - now that you have yours, I'm hoping mine is on its way to me...

TY everyone!....and I was just about to say what Nighthawk replied about the lume Ian....my original CD has awesome lume when charged in the sunlight or an indoor daylight lamp and it glows and lasts long...through the night (which to me is about 6 hrs. sleep)just as the CDII but you can hardly compare lume to a monster or a watch using c-3 superluminova as this new blue lume is meant to be softer and easier on the eyes ....so in comparison to other watches using the same type of lume it is equal and or better than most imho hand6.gif
