Solid competition to the Explorer or Aqua Terra in my opinion. The silver dials are less to my taste, mostly due to reduced contrast, but there’s a decent chance they’d be nicer in person.

These have the ETA 2892, also with the Wempe fine regulator and chronometer rating. Not sure if they’re mixing and matching Sellita and ETA, or if I just have bad information here.

There are also chronographs. Of course there are chronographs. The have both fixed and dive bezel versions.

All-in-all, an impressive set of impeccable designs. I’m pretty picky, but there’s nothing in these that bothers me. Not hugely original, but solid designs in every category, and good values as well.
