    looks fantastic, i just think there is a small problem with the crown and the topring. the crown looks like beeing fixed on the topring. how do you rotate the topring?

    Yes, you are right. The rendering is not correct. I'll post Some other drawing that will clarify the real crown position.

    Handsome design!
    Looking forward to seeing the finalized drawings!
    But what is 'GAS BREAK COUNT UP'? (Mi dispiace, ma non sono diver.)

    yes understand what you mean but the crown will still stuck on the bezel once you start rotating it. i am sure you guys will do the right things in order to avoid that.

    I like the designs, they look insanely nice.

    A couple of things I would say tho, I would remove the strident, it has been used plenty already. The
    brands Sottomarino and Prometheus(by Invicta) both use the trident.

    Also I would place the scuba mask above the extreme, it is more pleasing to the eye, in my opinion.

    Gold luck with the project.

    Having the Trident AND the mask - and both are roughly the same size - seems not like a good idea.
