Great review. Beautiful watch. Very original for a homage vintage style. I like that it's not a direct copy of any watch but draws inspiration from 50s 60s heavyweight divers like Rolex, Tudor, Blancpain and Omega. Everything is right about this watch In terms of dimensions. Acrylic glass and aluminium bezel is perfect for the style. If you are a fan of vintage divers from the 50s 60s but you can't afford the price tag and difficulty finding this is perfect. I prefer the gilt version though because it gives the markers more dimension and pop. Almost like applied. Also, acrylic gives a nautical feel and warmth you don't get from sapphire.

I picked up a black/gilt back in June and it's my favorite watch now. I don't like oversized, overstated watches but I love classic styles in great quality. In person, the gold/gilt is SO NICE. It's gorgeous, you can wear it in nearly every situation. Version 3 hugs the wrist so well and is very low profile compared to v2. If classic dive watches are your thing then you can't go wrong.

Too flat at its base like a frying pan, gaps and is awkward as is lays on the wrist. I have this Neptune and find this design flaw annoying (9:29 on vid) on this otherwise very cool piece.

Lay's Flat like a frying pan on the wrist! I have the Neptune and it's base gaps and is awkward on the wrist. It shows on this vid 9:29. It's a very cool looking piece, but this contour design flaw is annoying, thus getting very little wrist time for me.

You have very good taste in watches. Lorier designs give me hope that the hobby won’t be taken over by homage collectors. 👍🏻👍🏼 for acrylic and other retro materials. Is that a new bezel for your pawnshop Fortis?
@watchmegobroke43654 жыл бұрын
Yes. I found a late 60’s era dive watch and switched out the bezel, since i cant find an original. It will do for now!
