I have to say, it is pretty damn nice in person. It seems to wear larger than a typical 42mm watch which is good. I've never done a watch review but maybe I will do my first on the CD-2. I know that I should never say that anything is a keeper but I do not see this one going away soon, short of being able to get the scratch for an LE, if additional ones are produced. I suck at photography but will try to take some better pics with my camera, since the above are with my iPhone. I forgot that it has 24mm lug width so I will try my GSD carbon leather strap that I was using on my, now gone, O7 LM-4V2.

It comes with a nice little booklet with pics of the prototype and a narrative about the watch and also discusses the movement, something I don't believe I've seen with other watches. Serial number is 007, which is kind of cool but unintentional.

Great to see these getting into the hands of collectors after following Aegir's ups and downs since the watch's germination. :cheers:

Looks better in person. I have had trouble really capturing the watch in a photo as of yet.

Bring my feelings back to DREADNOUGHT in the last decade. She turn up to be a winner and became a legend. AEGIR is making waves and she would be an icon for this decade!
