Aparently it's an NH35, with a saphire crystal. My first supercompressor. It came in at exactly half the thread budget. Purchased at 3pm today, the seller has already posted and it should be with me by 1pm tomorrow.

Why thank you!For the asking price, I couldn't refuse. RLG appear to be a one man mircobrand. There's no address on their website, but pricing is in USD, so I assume they are state side.

I am in seventh heaven... Found this during a deep early spring clean today, thought I'd lost it years ago. Didn't even need a battery. 
Now I'm one of the few on here who loves a digital watch.I'd love a retro red led watch but don't fancy paying out for the bulova computron

I have a RLG Odyssea. Bought it new and it came from Singapore IRC. Got stung by import duties sadly. For the asking price, I couldn't refuse. RLG appear to be a one man mircobrand. There's no address on their website, but pricing is in USD, so I assume they are state side.

It is a nice thing, but mine is the older version and I much prefer the newer one now.
One word of warning - I bought it because it had a blue face and I did not have a blue faced watch. In some lights it does occasionally look blue (bright sunlight which is a pretty rare commodity up here in the wilds of Scotland) but 99% of the time it is basically black.
Shame really because if the dial was more obviously blue - as it is in the pics - I'd love it.
Well made though and nicely finished.
Well the RLG has arrived and it's a decent bit of kit. The seller neglected to mention that it's just under a month old. There's no point in me taking a snap, the seller's pictures are far better than I could manage.
I'm rather impressed. At full rrp it would have been $250 (about £185) plus postage and VAT. It's a 200m waterproof supercompressor with saphire crystal, screw down crown and auto movement. That's a bargain!
It's a bit big at 42mm and the strap is a bit stiff, but then it's basically brand new. Hopefully it will quickly soften up a bit.
Thanks for all the positive comments.
