    The Blue Laguna

    I have to say that I was having a hell of a time finding a Black/Orange Laguna up until I ordered this beauty sight unseen. I tend to have black watches and I have to say the blue colour is perfect and a nice change. The size surprised me and feels very solid with a good weight to it. Keep in mind I regularly wear a Rolex Deep Sea. The inner bezel moves as smooth a butter and it adds a nice touch. A while ago I sold off my two Omega 176.007's because they were a bit on the small side but also because they were mechanical. I always liked the shape and style and strangely enough...the laguna shares a few characteristics from the shape of the case and end links.

    All in all I am stoked about this watch and thank Jason for making some awesome watches out of Vancouver Canada.















    And one of my old 176.007's

    Looks great!

    I would say the second shot in the series looks to be the best representation of color that I have seen. I wasn't able to get any decent shots when I tried indoors but your outdoor shots look really good. Still looks better in person but these give a really good idea of what this watch looks like.

    Man, that looks really sweet. I think I need to add one of these to my colletion. I already had a black and a black/orange version, but this tranfers the Laguna into a completely different watch.

    Wow, I was underwhelmed by the shade of blue, but in your pictures, it looks awesome. Wish I had one.

    A man's watch is a very cherished thing. You steal that, you might as well be stealing his soul.

    Raza in persdn the indices and reflector numbers look green, as it uses C3 for lume. I remember reading you sold you blue Sumo for that reason. I happen to like how the greenish glow of the indices looks against the blue dial, but its not for everone.

    The slight green color on the black dial (for the black version) is actually one thing that I find not the most aesthetically pleasing, so I'd imagine that on the blue dial it would actually be more interesting.

    It would be nice if some one could post videos of the blue Laguna in natural lighting.
