I’ve found that a bit of WD-40 on a Q-tip, applied around the outer threading helps if the crown has a rough feeling to it. It’s helped me in a few occasions. Great review.
Good value. Agree that it would have been better without red for the text. Oh, you can try lightly "flossing" the crown threads (when unscrewed) with waxed dental floss. Then screw it back in, then open again to let the wax coat the threads. It's a tip I learned from other watch communities and has worked on all my watches that were gritty/catchy at the crown.
Yo! Adrian! I just got a 30% off email from Spinnaker (been on their mail list forever) and ordered the Regiment Blue. Just couldn’t resist at that price. My collection is diver heavy but what the heck. Again, thanks for your review. If it hadn’t been for you they still wouldn’t be in my pocket.
Awesome, that's a heck of a discount. I can get why divers are so popular, they're really versatile and nowadays acceptable even for formal functions so win win. Hope you have lots of enjoyment with it!
I do think a ceramic insert would be nice but I think it would be hard to include at this price point. I like the aluminum here for its ability to take matte finishes better. But yeah, I think there are less options all round for this release
Great review. Really love the water resistance footage in the rain.
Glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
Great review, this looks really great and glad they've made a smaller version for us with slimmer wrists
Thanks man. And I agree. 40mm is a nice sweet spot for most

Interesting. I guess it basically acts as grease. I do have threading grease, don't know why I never thought of it 🤣. Thanks for that!

Nice. Like everything about this watch. Especially the strap. Thanks Adrian!
Appreciate it man. 🙂👊
My only complaint is the aluminum bezel and that the all black one is not available with a bracelet

Nice one Adrian! Any tutorial for photos?
Thanks man. Honestly don't think I'm not good enough yet to give tutorials for photography. Just got my first proper camera earlier this year 😃
Great review and nice looking piece.
Thanks a bunch man. 🙂
Adrian, how long did you have to decompress after surfacing from 1.5 cm? LoL. Great review my friend.
Thanks mate. A full 2 seconds. Felt like an eternity 🤣
Great review. Do you know roughly how long the watch lasts when you’re not wearing it?
Apologies for the late reply. I think the power reserve on this is about 42 hours.
Thanks for the review
Sure thing! Hope you enjoyed it.
