I was gonna hold off posting my wrist shots of the Cave Dweller Prototype until the weather got better and the sun actually came out but that doesn't look like it will happen this week....so until I do a review w/detaied pics once I set up my equipment I took these under overcast skies and snow....the watch is absolutely Awesome imho yahoo.gif The case and bracelet fit and finish are exact with a sweet satin/brushed finish and the bezel clicks firmly and locks into place ....once in position it has no play whatsoever....nice and tightyourock.gif The bezel is stepped and is perfectly inline with the case and the crown unscrews and screws back in place with ease and winding is so smooth you have to wonder if it is winding at all watch2.gif The dial is crisp and neither gloss nor matte but a sweet satin finish which only adds to the beauty of the lumed indices and markers...very easy to read...btw the Boshett "B" logo lines up perfect once the crown is screwed in north to south...the lugs have a unique contour shape as does the bracelet links which instead of being flat bricks are actually six sided and curved on the underside to fit the wrist precisely and give the bracelet a 3D effect...the endlinks hug the case once again in a unique fashion firmly...the divers buckle is double locking with foldover and push button release and Boschett inscribedwoohoo.gif ....I will get up a review and better pics asap but pics do not do this watch justice...it is truly a unique tool diver rated at 1000m which if you noticed we left off the HRV crown which in fact is nothing more than a decoration that someone thought was cool a few years ago and imo just an obstruction which can allow water to seep in if bumped or not screwed down properly...again a HEV/HRV is only neccessary for sturation dives....look to this thread for updated pics and review within the week

TY Guys!...I was floored as well but had a feeling it would be special....for a 44mm by 16.50 mm watch it is extremely comfortable due to the use of a 22mm bracelet with individualy contoured links that just hug the wrist...once I get a sideview of the bracelet you will see what I meanhand6.gif. ...also the use of springbars instead of lug screws/tubes aided in the perfect fit of the custom endlinks....from my experience too many WIS using the screw/tubes are scratching up the lugs from strap changes and this will keep that from happening here and imho I don't know why anyone would want to remove this awesome bracelet ...btw the saph crystal is sweet and the caseback design came out perfect yahoo.gif....and mind you that this is just the prototype and not the finished product which will only be better....there are a few changes to be made like added notches on the bezel and increased lume....lume is very good now but we wanted something amazing...Keith has been very instrumental in dealing with the factory which has been a pleasure to deal with watch2.gif
