I followed the release of the original black dials and heard all the pros and cons before deciding to pass, even though the initial design was appealing...
when I got notice of the Blue LE of 300 and heard they'd changed some of the cons, I decided to jump... glad I did and very pleased with the results and value received... I tried a Halios Seaforth (black gilt/silver dive bezel) and even though it was a nice watch, I wasn't overly impressed at that price point and the Miyota spinning rotor sounded tinny and cheap and drove me crazy...
anyway, the build quality on the Evant is amazing for the $ and especially with ETA, icing on the cake... timed at -1 sec the past 24 hrs and I can't even hear this rotor


also found that these bear a 'small' resemblance to this cool 60's Breguet 1646 diver that was apparently made in a very small quantity... I guess we know where the inspiration came from
