Not sure if this is the coolest watch I have ever seen, or if it is a bit of mis match...

Think edging to the former, what do you guys think?

Quite liked it until I saw the display back (looks cheap) and the size of the thing.

Looks crude and ridiculously uncomfortable. The dimensions don't work on the wrist at all. Plus that fake 'euro heritage' branding. Not for me...I'd rather have a Bremont and that's saying something.

^^^^ basically this.

Why they shot a watch with huge long, straight lugs on a puny wristed "model" beggars belief.

I'm tending towards 'cool' - I wasn't 100% sure at first, but the later photos give some nice detailed shots which show that things like the 'font' for the numerals is nicely consistent between dial and bezel for example.

But I think you'd need fairly large wrists to pull it off

It's OK - Does seem to take styling cues from a number of places, but manages to make them work reasonably well as a whole (not easily done!).

I wouldn't say it was "the coolest watch I've seen" though, not by a long shot, but that's a very personal viewpoint.

Still can't decide, coolest watch I have ever seen "might" be a bit OTT lol.

Hahah did not notice how it looked on that dudes wrists, it does kind of dwarf it.

I think it's one of those watches I would really need to try on before buying, shame lol

If a Panerai and a Rolex Sub had an unholy love child.

It's a tribute to Blancpain and as such looks pretty good to me.

I like it. Would suit my large wrists, would suit my penchant for the plainer-faced watch and would suit my liking of the Panerai style.

Wonder where I can get my hands on one to look closer.

Quite like that. Nice crisp styling on the lugs and the knurling on the bezel looks quite industrial and functional- Very much function above form but with a dash of flair as well.

Panerai already does that, it's the PAM389

The face looks like Panerai Luminor, the bezel like a Omega Planet Ocean. They don't really complement each other
