This watch is too much fun. Figured I'd post some honeymoon photos.
My subject:
Next to another Swiss made diving instrument:
The lovely clasp:
The inside, showing the ratcheting extension opened:
And with the full wetsuit extension opened. This thing should fit over my drysuit sleeve!
A lume shot:
And finally, the photographer and a wrist shot (7.25" wrist for perspective):

You're on, Bo.... how long are you willing to wait for it? If we're all still here in 40 years, I'll drop you a line. But beware, it will be worth a lot more then, after I get famous.

That flip lock looks sweet! Is it micro adjustable where it says PUSH or is that just to release the diving extension?
Honey Badger FTW!!!

The PUSH button ratchets out the microadjust extension in very small increments. This is so nice to have for a cut rubber strap, for when the wrist swells and contracts in hot weather, exercise, etc. Then it also has the flip-out dive extension which makes this thing really adaptable.

I finally was able to see one in person the other day and was so close to listing most of my collection on the sales forum to raise the needed funds for one. I just could not do it though...
Maybe one day

Well, I did list most of my collection, though after the purchase (oops), and I am not looking back. Almost two weeks on, and I've worn it 24/7 alll but two days and it's a surprisingly comfortable daily wear piece. With my forthcoming Gasgasbones, it should be super comfy.
Timekeeping has been a little disappointing, considering all the press the co-ax 8500 calibre gets. Mine runs about +5/day.
