    Holy h3ll again man.
    I love the all-white text.
    So clean. (Unlike my computer keyboard that's now covered in in saliva.)

    Life is short. How sad to have realized in your death bed that you've worn a crappy watch as a "daily beater" for most of your days.

    I keep thinking the dive bezel is fatter/wider than the 12 hr. one, but it's not. Surprising how much better this watch looks with the 12 hr. bezel.

    I'm starting to hallucinate that this is an orange dial.

    How about navy blue bezel + dial with white bg9 lume? Sort of like this IWC.

    Re: LM-5 Chronograph?

    Here's what I'm leaning toward. Please comment.

    Black dial with white registers - different from what we've done in the past, and it goes well with the black on white big date.

    C3 lume

    12 hour or diver bezel markings. Maybe 12 hour to be different.

    Does a two color bezel make sense on this watch? It certainly does on a 24 hour GMT, but here it would be a meaningless decoration, although it does look good.

    Not sure if we can meet that very aggressive price, but it won't be far off if we can't.

    Keep in mind that this needs some mass appeal. Although one may like pink dials, we must use a color combination that would insure reasonable sales success over time.

    This all black dial, with a simple black 12 hour bezel would look awesome. Clean yet unique from what Ocean7 has done before. Looking forward to the summer when we can place our orders....
