Down the road they might re-issue Benrus Bullitt which is quite cool,

Re: New Benrus Type I
I like these, but like others have said, it’s a bit overpriced IMO. That said, I’m curious to read what those here that have purchased think of them once received.
I watched the RedBarCrew “interview” with Darius Solomon where this watch was discussed at length. I didn’t get the feeling that a non-LE version will be available in the future, but who knows.

I believe there will be a non-LE eventually. One could imagine some differences, we’ll see.BBK357 wrote:Yeah I m still waiting on hoppy explainishin of the LE comment

Does any one else think it’s cute to see HJjr and Moke_Demer twinning?

Re: New Benrus Type I
Honestly, just like the originals. Light and highly legible. Two thumbs up.

Re: New Benrus Type I
It’s not even the same size.
Paradive is a copy of the original Benrus, whereas this Benrus is a reissue of the original.
Yao is a good copy cat.

Re: New Benrus Type I
FYI: I listened to the RedBar Benrus Launch day instagram.
They were asking alot of questions on LE and non-LE. Didnt really come away with an answer, although they did hedge that it is possible in the future.
I still want one. Ed and Mike.....when are you parting with? Its already stuck a few days.

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
