I am in awe of this one. The bracelet is Omega Seamaster worthy...The case is this SS chunk of dense metal. The dial is even more attractive in person than in the pix. I never cared much for red hands...this watch has changed all that. Very cool and decisively retro...That I like. hand6.gif

I agree on the bracelet but the clasp needs some work.  For one thing, its very stiff and a pain to unlatch (the grip on the edge is so short, you feel like you will break your figner nail).  I've had other difficult to unlatch bracelets before, but the Oceanaire is the worst so far.  I've resorted to using my pocket knife to unlatch it.

THAT watch does kick ass .... its big and its well made ....nice hands and it has a retro diver look to it ....I had mine and it had the 200 movement which seemed to keep good time .....overall it is a good value to the dollar spent...congrats on the fact you have some nice watches

So far the movt is keeping great time! I agree on the clasp, it is stiff, I will try and see if I can figure out a way to make it easier to unlatch.  I normally bend the clasp a bit once I know where the friction is.  This watch is def one I don't foresee me ever getting rid of.

Hey Canadajo, you seem to own every watch under sun these days!!!I like that Limes!
