That's a cool one William!

Like others, I'm just not seeing any Anonimo resemblance (Millemetri or other).  (Is it the fixed outer bezel Will???...maybe, but I'm just not seeing it with this one).

Anyway, it's a cool looking internal bezel model and will, no doubt, wear with a whole lot of wrist presence given the 3-9 dimension of 43mm.  I'm expecting it will wear much larger than 43mm due to the internal bezel design which gives the impression of a large dial area combined with that case design which has that large extended 'cushion' shape to it.

It's a good looking prototype if you ask me!thumbsup.gif


It's just about the bezel and the double crown feature, the way the case goes around the crowns and the inclinations of the bezel/case.
Now, offcourse, it's not an Anonimo replica but has a bit of the style in my eyes. It's just a question of similar designs.
Now, if you all tell me that this Laguna is looking like nothing else: I will just laugh hard.
Even the Laguna name been allready used for watches...
Anyway, it's looking good.

Here is another shot that Halios has made available of the Laguna prototype (+ some CAD renderings)...

Looks very unique to me...although I do see some bits of Halios dna scattered around the design of this one. 

Hmmm...I don't have any "internal bezel" pieces in the lineup...mistake.gif  thumbsup.gif

 both Halios I owned seemed as if the lugs were cut short and the bracelets did not have a clean fit at the lugs other than that they were great ...I like this compressor case but no screw down crowns on a watch with 500m water resistance?...I'll wait to see some better pics and reviews before I make up my mind ...the sales forums will be a good place to buy imo down the road...ThumbsUp02.gif

I missed this thread again. Darn!

To Oscar's point....500m WR without a screw down sounds strange. Even the gaskets, which actually ensure the WR, may give if not with a screw down crown.

Other than that, the watch looks ok....small, but ok.
