Oooo, now apart from being Blacksteel (and of course, why wouldn't it be? :roll: ), I think that's great.

As Fred said, drop that movement and dial in an SS case and, ladies and gents, we'd have a sure-fire, cast-iron winner right there!

Agree loved it on first look then saw the black case. Exactly as is in stainless case would be nice!

Oooo I like that. The transocean is too long for me but I like that look a lot even in the Blacksteel case. I hate to keep repeating this but if that was in a ceramic case I think it would be drool worthy.

I like the look better but not in blacksteel. Gives me hope though as I think the UniTime is a great looking watch.

Well they have and it looks brilliant. If only they stopped with all the black altogether... They should team up with RADO on that metal looking ceramic material... Now that would be a way into the future which would honor their past.

Unless wrists are really large, 46mm won't look that dressy.

Great improvement! The DLC bracelet is a nice touch. It would be cool on a nylon style strap like the JLC Navy Seals or the new Speedy.
