The beveled edges on the hour marker surrounds are nice looking. I like most of the styling features on that watch, but the way the numbers on the bezel flare out and get larger on the outside of the bezel makes it look comical to me and less like a luxury watch.

That's what the reviewer said as well.
I neither like it or dislike it, I'd have to see it in person.

I'd have to see it in person as well. The bezel numbers look cartoonish. The luminous marker is on the wrong end of the second hand for me.

You need to come visit before your family moves from Dallas and we will visit timeless. It's one of less than a handful of places in US where you can see a GS in person. |

I am the same with you all about the numbers on the Bezel. I think I prefer their spring drive Divers which are gorgeous to look at.

Cool watch but for me, in comparison to the Monster (and some other Seiko divers) it does nothing.
