| The thing that intrigues me about it is that thought has gone into every aspect of the watch...right down to the movement! It would have been easy to drop in a ETA 2824 and call it a day...but Todd took the extra step to go with the Soprod A10. This movement is comparable to the mighty ETA 2892-A2 and is thought to be better in some aspects. Here is a link to the company site for more info: http://www.soprod.ch/mouvement-montre/sop-143.html ____________________________________ M A R K

| This watch is REALLY something Mark ! Have seen Aegir watches online before, and always thought they were beyond cool, but have never seen anyone having one of their own before. So it's going to be great if you end up getting this one. They genuinely have a look that stands out in a crowd of dive watches, and at the same time are actually created by people who know alot about diving too. Sounds, and also looks VERY impressive !!! Let us know if you decide to pick this one up, and thanks for the links here by the way. ____________________________________ | |

| I like it Mark. I see a blending of Benarus and Kobold genes in the looks of this watch.......Like the movement too. | |
