| I went a bought my first Renato. I have liked the look of the Wilde-Beast Diver for a while but could never get past the 49-50mm case size. I like the look of the some of the older models not so much the newer ones that are more difficult to read the time. The Beast has intrigued me recently. I found a Beast Diver at another site. It's the one with the blue dial and yellow accents. My 2 favorite colors as well. The seller had what appeared to be a decent price and I made him an offer. He accepted. So soon now I will be the new owner of this watch. Seller's pics for now. Shop's picture. I did find a couple great pics of the watch HERE also. |

| Go wash! You're dirty.
I don't give a flip (well not much anyway) about what those dorks think about my watches so tell us what you think about it once it is in hand.
The blue and yellow are a good combo, IMO | |

| CONGRATS! I had the same model but it was the hunter green and I actually loved it. I loved the look, the feel and especially the color. I sold mine because of my distaste for the owner and all the crap he does. He runs real fast and loose with his statements about numbering, place of manufacturer and some other things. So, my getting rid of it had nothing to do with the watch and everything to do with the owner. I know you'll enjoy it because it really is a good looking watch! |

| Renato does build a solid watch. The color combo here is great and the dial is reserved compared to some of the busy-stuff Renato has done. It's a very good looking watch. You'll feel the weight and build of this one! I wish you many good wrist hours with this watch. | |

| You'll love it. Congratulations. I have the T-Rex Black/Orange version. Most everything is ok in moderation - even Kool-Aid | |

| Congrats on your new WB. That model just goes to show you less is often more in a watch dial design. Enjoy wearing it. | |

| Man depending on the price you probably got a deal you are going to be very happy with. I think you will like that beast diver. I still have mine and I told Duff just the other day it was the only Renato that I am keeping. Renato builds solid watches. Lately they have really made thier dials unreadable but the older ones like you have on the way are killer! |
