It seems there isn't a lot of O7 love going around anywhere except the O7 forum. I bought this looking for a sub 1K beater that could hold up doing S.W.A.T. work. It's got a Swiss movement, and I could care less if the case was made in China or Tinbuctoo. Just my dos centavos. ~ David

Dave...I think the lack of love here has more to do with the owner than the watch itself. I know in my particular case, there are several factors; the "heavy handedness" of the O7 Forum, the hypocrisy of their mission statement "Our guiding philosophy is simple - we have to be different to be better!" while all the time simply making "homages to other high-end watches, the ethical question deception employed when they started using the SW200 instead of the ETA 2824-2. I guess to me, it's simply the arrogance of the O7 "crowd" in the "putting down" of anyone who dared say anything negative or even broached a question that they might have had a negative connotation to it if they answered it honestly.
My understanding is that the product itself is decent and many models are appealing...although VERY reminiscent of other watches..

Oh, I didn't mean to imply a lack of love just here. From what I have seen, it's everywhere, except the O7 forum where the Kool-Aid flows like a river. And ... from what I have seen you are absolutely correct. I have posted the requisite "here is my new O7" post on the O7 home forum, but other than that haven't spent much time there. IMO there are a lot of new watches that all look basically the same with this case. It does just what I bought it to do, and for the price was a pretty good deal. Nothing more, nothing less. ~ David
