Man oh man, this is NICE too Bill !
It's really great seeing you get all of these EXTRA
COOL watches like this.
..Also like how you picked up a "Zinex" here, since they
changed their name to Zixen. That kind of makes it even MORE of a collectors item.
Besides that, it's just an exceptional watch all the way around. From the bold bezel,
case, and bracelet. To the awesome eye-popping orange. This Nitrox really ROCKS !
Congrats once again on adding yet another exceptional watch to your collection. Can't
believe how great it is that you were able to pick up the #10 of 100 here. That sounds
like a coincidence, but maybe it was just your destiny.
In any case, it's TERRIFIC
imho. This Nitrox has such a mean attitude about it. From the very beginning it seems
to take no prisoners. The case is very substantial, and really looks like it needs to be
by the way Bill. There is alot of watch here, as well as alot of quality also. You have a
nice simple shape that looks like it's built to withstand just about anything you can throw
at it. The size is perfect, and the thickness of the case takes things up a notch as well.
..Even that brushing you mentioned on the case makes everything flow nicely together
also. Just looking at the lugs for instance becomes more enjoyable as a result. You just
seem to be able to appreciate the look, along with size of them more now that they are
brushed. On top of that, the lug look almost seems to be reflected in the links of the
bracelet. Each one of them mirroring the lugs in both their substantial size, along with
cool stainless steel look. It's really PHENOMENAL ! Yet one more aspect that impresses
with this Zinex would probably have to be the bezel. That whole look where the outer
part of the bezel with it's large teeth angling to the side is a show stopper.
Not
only is it very attractive, but the spacing, as well as the mixing of brushed, along with
polished sections is excellent. Also like how you almost seem to have TWO bezels with
this design. The outer part with these amazing teeth, and then the inner part with it's
diving markers, and numbers. ..They even have that EPIC orange lume pip in there for
good measure ! WOW ! What's neat about that, is that it's a precursor of what is to
come with the dial, and it's OWN orange theme ! All you have to do is gaze upon that
two tone orange triangle marker at the 12 o'clock position to know this watch is doing
things differently. Guess it goes back to that MEAN attitude of the watch. The way each
one of those rectangular markers leaps off of the dial is fantastic. Also like how those small
dot markers are there to take things up another level too, and the hands supercharge
things even further. Hey, and how about how the very center of the dial seems to show
up as this super cool sinister black hole due to the surrounding markers ?! ..THAT is
impressive, and so is this watch !!!! Congratulations once again, and of course ..Enjoy !
Impressive watch, AND pictures !
