I hear those "Stellita" movements are excellent.

lol they spelled it right and then wrong in another spot. I also noticed in some spots the call it the Rebel Aquafina and others the Aqua lung.....:) Still pretty cool looking IMO>Interesting that on the video they claim that these are Swiss Made under the newest rules regulating the Swiss Made moniker.

I like the watch but hate the writing on the crown. I Was really pushing for them to remove it for quite some time, but they didn't.

Not bad actually... I was waiting to see a 47mm diameter, actually surprised at the 42mm (will probably wear larger).

Hey, Reuven here from Rebel Watches.

Thanks for all of your support. We are already over 75k.

We are changing the crowns a bit, as the current ones were too hard to turn. The new ones are like the crown from the IWC AQUATIMER, we should have pictures in a week or two.

We had started it as the AquaLung, but the Aqua Lung scuba company threatened to sue us... so we switched.

Let kw know if you have any other questions.

Do you have one without braille?

I applaud your use of a visually impaired spokesperson though. :thumbsup:

Actually, I think the new 'Nimos are far worse than this.

Any chance you could get rid of the writing on the crowns?

What depth can the internal bezel be used to?
