Have all of you guys checked out Manchester Watch Works' new Beluga Ascent

measure ascent rates with it's Ascent Bezel evidently.

A few of the many specifications include a brushed, and polished 41mm stainless
steel case, 500M WR, raised, and beveled AR coated sapphire crystal, special micro
engraved maelstrom pattern dial with C3, and BGW9 Super-Luminova coated markers,
and hands, 24 hour brushed steel outer ring, patent pending bezel indicator with 120
click clockwise rotating bezel, C3 Super-Luminova lumed ceramic insert, ETA 2824-2
automatic movement, stainless steel bracelet, sand 'seat-belt' nylon dive strap, and
more everyone.

Beautiful watch! Gets a lot of hate because of the bezel but I dig it. I just don't think it's worth two Obris Morgan Infinity's but it's beautiful.

That bezel is silly.

Doesn't Brice have one of these? I seem to recall seeing it in a WRUW thread recently.

If you're going to make a pattern on the dial, at least make it this one
