Benarus Sea Snake Review
Benarus stands out from the pack of boutique tool dive watches with designs that tend to be more unique and perhaps divisive. A perfect example of this is the last watch of theirs we reviewed, the Megalodon 500. This dual crown diver has some of the most extreme looks of any watch we've looked at. Yet despite the shock value, was an awesome and memorable watch. More recently, we've actually reviewed their sister brand, Raven, whose Rolex inspired watches are fun, stylish and tough as nails.

Am I right in thinking that this was a transitional year for that?I'd really appreciate your thoughts, criticisms and observations before I go and spend $6,000.Thanks.2016-01-26 16.11.28 (2).jpgP1020028.jpg

pretty sure this may have been discussed at some point in the last 8 years but any ideas why some say Amercas Cup in small text below the chronometer script and some don't but Omega gave them the same ref #???i'm selling mine and a question came up on that matter. i called my Omega Ad today and they couldn't answer the question with certainty... the sales rep didn't even know the ref# but in their defense, it was a limited run SMP.any info is appreciated!
