This is an eye-opening review. I went looking for this timepiece after reading, but alas, the one I wanted (black PVD steel/black face/sapphire back) are discontinued. I think a numbered bezel that doesn’t rotate is kind of hokey, so I’m not all that bummed. I can still find a black face with leather band, and swap out the band later for a Traser $70 steel. Price is now $441 w/leather strap. No see-thru sapphire back. Or I can go all out and get the Automatic Master, but at around $800 it’s not a great deal. Hopefully though for that price, it IS a great watch.
I have had this watch for about 5 year. I love it. It is my daily watch. It is very easy to read at a glance with a bright white face. The oem bracelet is top quality with solid lug links. A real gem and a bargain. The movement is elaborated and keeps extremely good time.

Nice timekeeper. Too bad that the watch does not exist anymore.
