Well I've had it since the 30th, it's running about -1 second a day and its the Wilson Watch Works 45mm 2k diver.

The bezel glows like a torch with c3 superlume. The dial and hands glow with c1 superlume which when put on the same watch with c3 really illustrates how useless c1 is subtlelaugh.gif

I had to adjust the bezel insert just a bit but (maybe I just thought I had too)... and I had to take a dremel to the SEL's to get the bracelet to articulate far enough to comfortably fit a small 6.5 wrist.

So in summery , runs well, grumpy blowhard, OCD much, some assembly required.

It's honestly an impressive watch for a 2k diver with HE valve for under a grand but I will admit the no frills no propaganda, no nonsense appeal will probably send the needy high maintenance forum girls screaming in the other direction and if you have very small wrists and no dremel a strap purchase is in your future!

Of course none of you have to worry about it since I think he is all sold out now, second choice the deep blue which is the same case and bracelet and has the same bracelet problems for small wrists.

Received mine a couple days ago and seem to be suffering from the same problems with the bezel and the bracelet.  Would've been nice if C3 lume had been used on the dial as well, I think the C3 bezel lume is the strongest and longest lasting I have ever seen (yep, I have lots of Seikos).  Mine is running at +2 seconds/daily;).

Thanks guys, you know it's a real pleasure to be able to call the guy who built the watch and hear his kids running around and screaming in the background and have a conversation about the watch I'm wearing! I liked this one so much I figured I should check out his 200m model too! I should get it before the week is out!

Thanks Mark. I've been using Yahoo and have only found posts with no links.

Props to another NC brand (Bernhardt being the other)!!!
