Some opinion from an owner here

Personally I struggle to distinguish them in any significant way from fashion brands at 1/6th the price, miyota movements are dependable enough but I think they are a little less than timeless with the blunt size and IN YER FACEness of it all.
But hey, they're different, interesting, and if we all liked the same things life would be boring.
Welcome, btw.

I've said this before, but I think it is a very interesting brand.
Like them or loathe them, I think that a lot of design work has gone into their idea, which is always a good start. At least they haven't cacked out yet another boring Sub/GMT clone.
Have they "over egged the pudding" ? I would like to see one in real, but I can definitely see the attraction.
Pricewise, they may have made a mistake, as it feels like it falls into a no-mans land between high end and fashion. I wouldn't be surprised to see the list price double in the next year or two.
If you have gone so far as to ask advice on one, I would say you should go ahead and get one.
They do look like they wear "large" so it might be good to try before you buy, but a tentative thumbs up from me.
If you do get one, then report back on what you think of it.
