Received my Helix Okto Chrono yesterday and I am very happy. This is a heavy all metal watch with a lot of character. I was surprised with it's weight. This is not a beater. It is a watch with some great use of
color and excellent LUM. I compare the LUM to be on par with my Zodiac watches. What this watch has that most don't is A TON of unique styling features, from the case, to the pushers to the divers clasp, just all very very well done. Great solid bracelet also.
All pushers and crown ARE screw downs. Very nice.
The clasp is a divers clasp with the automatic micro adjustments. Just
slide it out or in. I love this and wish more watches would use this
clasp.
Comes packaged in a cool rubber like cylinder thing with a mini CD with all instructions and info. My only complaint might be that the watch, while packed well, still could move around in the container which could
potentially lead to damage. I wish
all companies packed the watches tighter in the "boxes", especially when shipping via mail service.
A GREAT steal for the $60 I won it for in the online auction. For $60 I am VERY happy with this one (they say the retail is over $400 but we all know that is never happening)
