im in love with this watch. Fantastic pics. the one in the cargo pocket is freaking me out, it is upside down, but the seatback is right side up....
Anyhoo, whats the movement in these? Miyota like in the Holotype?
I Had a Holotype and it was a great watch, i do like this much more though!

I think that's the seat seat. The shot is sideways, but yeah kind of freaks me out too.
Looks awesome!
I'm a dive watch noob, and I have never heard of Bluering. Short of Googleing, where could I find out more about these?

The Black face has the Movement: Seiko 6R15 Automatic
The Blue and Silver have ETA 2824-2 movement
And, the pic of the cargo shorts is of me sitting down.

Man these are nice. I almost went through with ordering a silver/brushed last night but I managed some self control. No more $500 watches until I get the Panerai I have been pathetically attempting to save for. This watch and the Stowa MO are testing the limits of my control.

I've got my eye on a silver and exchanged some emails with Jason. Living in Vancouver, I really want to stop by and see all three versions :D

That's convenient!
Tell me what you think of the blue dial (I'm getting that one).

Looks great Nick.

I had originally planned on getting one, but I'm tapped out right now. When Jason was first posting up about these, I was really hoping to see the silver dial with the 6R15 movement.

Not that the 2824 is bad or anything, but I got the ETA bases covered right now and like the longer power reserve of the 6R15. I'm still haven't ruled out the black dial version though. Congrats!!
