I just took delivery of a new C65 Super Compressor Elite so thought I would post a few photos (also added to reference gallery) and give initial thoughts.
I read with interest some of the initial feedback on the forum when the watch was released. I'm not fortunate enough to own the "original" version but made an impulse purchase of the new one because of what I think the watch is intended for, a bit of summer fun. I own a number of steel, black dial dive watches and this one just came across as different.
Initial feedback (having worn it for about 15 minutes) is very positive. The dial colors aren't quite as stark as the website pictures but I like the various shades/intensity of the blue dial under different lights. In the flesh the white inner bezel dominates maybe a bit more than expected. For me, it means the very busy inner dial becomes more appreciating the overall pattern/design than the detail of the functional elements. Personally it's not so much of a problem since I didn't specifically buy it for the function of the decompression scale, but for those who would think about using it there is indeed a lot going on.
The blue/orange strap is great fun, again not quite as textured in the flesh as the website suggests. It wears nice and light on the wrist, probably feeling a little smaller than I might have expected it to at 41mm.
So far, enjoying it very much.
Best,
TB
