Scary thing about wearing the Sea Snake, for almost a full day...and night :)...
I could imagine having this as the only watch I would wear...it's THAT comfortable, the bracelet is as comfortable...or more...than any Rolex.
The dial is nicely readable...and beautifully designed, of course (as always...Steve excels in this department).
I grew up with all my most beloved figures...including my mother...wearing period Submariners...some from WWII...others boughtt at different periods, for diving... I bought my first Sub, some where on the shore of Scotland, when I was 18. I say all this, because I have never been drawn to orange minute hands...for that reason...they look 'out of place' to me... HOWEVER...the shade of orange that Steve used, combined with the boldness of the hour hand, made this the first watch I have ever bought, with an "orange" minute hand.
...Steve was right, as well...that the bezel mechanism is the smoothest of any watch I have ever owned...
I look forward to wearing this watch for years, and buying other variations (dial color, Ti, chrono?).
Thank you Edward, I really appreciate this feedback.
