Got my Formex today...

SCREW THE LUME, THIS BEAST IS OUTSTANDING!

Yes the lume stinks, but who cares, this watch is so cool on so many levels.  The size is wild, like my Oris Carlos Coste at 1/3 price, two bracelets, one sporty and one more blingy, and a nice tan leather strap.  The sporty baracelet with the allen heads is nutz, so thick and really contributes to the uniqueness of the watch.  The dressier bracelet has a traditional clasp (one of the only "normal" things about this watch) and actually makes this watch wearable in daily attire, without looking too "out there".  I think I prefer the dressier bracelet.  The weight of the watch is good, feels substantial while not being cumbersome.  I love that there are so many unique features.  It is refreshing to see a company approach something from a new angle (literally), easily one of my more satisfying purchases. 

I haven't been this excited about a watch in a long while.
