This watch is screaming for a ceramic bezel! I'm not sure yet about this one. I like it, but I don't love it. Maybe it does need a splash of colour.
agreed, it needs a ceramic bezel. my casio oceanus has one and still looks mint after 2 years solid wearing. My CW ad astra has scratched down to the metal on the blue bezel at the corners. A premium watch should be made robust enough to wear for years without looking tatty.

Yes Lavaine! Spot on, that would finish it off nicely......but to be honest Mortis has killed this one of for me.
Just seen these pics for the first time. Different from what I expected, and quite impressive. Like others, by the look of it, I thought of Oris at first glance, which is not necessarily a bad thing.
