This watch is an incredible piece of engineering. I love the peace of mind I get knowing it has an amazing power reserve and that I also see it's remaining power through a nice gauge on the dial. The finishing of the watch head it superb. The crown feels very solid when it is out and in use, unlike my 38 mm trident pro 600m, which feels like it is going to snap off when I wind it. The watch has a considerable heft to it, but in a good way. Tapping on the sapphire lens produces a nice *thud*, indicative of a thick, solid crystal. The only disappointing feature is the leather band. I ordered the chocolate brown variant, and it has been a week now and the band is cracking across the surface. I have the bader clasp set to the 4th of 8 holes from the strap tip, so I'm not straining the leather with an excessively tight fitting. I hope this is just a one-time issue.
