Looking back on the pictures I
took of the Sea Viper it looks pretty damn cool and unique. It’s sad I didn’t
perceive it like that when I had it. With its 45mm width it was big, sure, but
it was a 500m diver! I think many of the
details like the dial, bezel and the case was really well done and didn’t resemble
anything else. The case back design must also be one of the meanest engravings ever.
It was quite heavy on the bracelet so I wore it on the dust attractive
Timefactors Isofrane look-a-like rubber (which I put on almost all my watches
at that time). I paid about $350 for this watch and it was like new when I got
it. It housed an ETA 2824-2 movement which ran well. Considering its cool and
own design together with its overall high detail finish I really must say it
was a lot of bang for the buck.
