Yeah. I'm sort of smitten by it. It sure ain't pretty. But it's zings. Shocked no owners hoped on this thread.

I would prefer the older monocoque case, which might help make it a little thinner. Still, there's just something so unique about it. I have no idea where I would wear it, since I usually wear dress shirts. But, I still want--or need--one.

I have one and love it. I wear it daily in my rotation with no issues. It sounds weird but the clasp is the best part. So easy to adjust and the size of it really balances the whole watch. Its very comfortable for what it is, on either the bracelet or rubber strap.

I'm actually considering buying a white one just to have a strange set. I think the white looks killer too.

BTW are you sat in an STI clinic waiting room? 'Is there a Mr. Smith here?' everyone puts their hand up...

Don't care for the new one. The whole point of the original was no have no case back and no helium escape valve yet that's what we get with the "new and improved" version. Pass.

Calling it a beast might be an understatement. I'd love to have one but I know I'll never be able to pull it off. It does look good in the pics provided on this thread tho.
