Almost perfect

I bought this watch because I already have the steel version of it, BN0190-82E, which is very nice but pretty heavy. A titanium version would be perfect, I thought. And it's great. However, I really don't like the skeletonised hands- the steel one has obelisk hands, and I wish they'd kept them for this model. The skeleton hands look overwhelmed by the index markers, especially in the dark. It annoys me so much I'm considering taking the movement out of the steel watch and putting it in the titanium one, then I really would have the perfect dive watch. I suppose I agree with the people who want a sapphire crystal, but I can't say it bothers me that much. And yes, the bezel movement is bizzarely scratchy (not on the steel one), but again I don't really care, although it's puzzling that the people who make the world's most accurate wristwatch can't get that particular thing right on this model. I have lots of watches and I seem to be wearing this one most of the time, so that says it all.

Great daily diver with only one hiccup.

I have had this piece for about a year now and have come to appreciate it tremendously. It was my first titanium watch, so I was a bit unsure of what to expect. It is light, but not flimsy. The handset and dial are quite legible (date complication not so much). The Luke is excellent. The bracelet is a pin and collar system, which I’m not a huge fan of, but it adjusts easily enough if you know what you’re doing. My chief complaint, as it is with many of you apparently, is the lack of a sapphire crystal. Not a deal breaker obviously, but it would have been a nice touch.

Great watch!

Would give it a five star review if the vessel could rotate in both directions. But the watch is reasonably priced and the Titanium feels and looks great!

Love the watch, nice value

Nice watch. A few shortcomings. Needs better night time ilumination and Saphire crystal
