I have been waiting too long to add this to the collection. I also finally bought the book, an absolute must have.

I recently picked up the same watch. I'm still not quite sure what to make of it. I have Navi World on the way, and I'm not sure both will survive in my collection. The blasted titanium case almost glows.

What are your early impressions?

Awesome supersport! Look great with that blasted case. Really Ives it a mean look with the red.

I love mine, what do you not like about it? Do you have the rubber deployment strap?

Yes. Mine came on the same strap as yours, but I can't wear rubber straps (wrist problem - long story).

I wouldn't say there is anything I don't like about it. Perhaps my hold up is the price. It's got the highest retail price of any watch I've owned, and that may be messing with me. I wonder if it's really so much better than other watches that cost far less.

One concern I have is that when I turn the bezel clockwise, it almost feels like it's scraping a bit. I don't get this turning counter clockwise. And I don't have the issue on my GT or any of my Navis' bezels. Do you get a similar scrape feeling with your bezel? I suspect mine may need to be sent back to BUSA.

It is an expensive model, but I really enjoy it (i've only had it for 6 hours but it's still on my wrist). I've been thinking about buying one since my friend got one for free with his Bentley. He bought the Bentley ISR and it came with this watch except his has a carbon fiber dial instead of black, otherwise it's the same watch. I do not have the scrapping feeling in either direction. Sometimes, you can't think price and just enjoy it!! :lol:
