Anstead Oceanis Review
Back in September, we introduced you to the Anstead Oceanis, a Kickstarter watch project that managed to stick out from the crowd for being, well, traditional. Unlike nearly every other Kickstarter watch that has gained considerable attention, the Oceanis was developed with traditional watch enthusiasts in mind. It shares a strong military aesthetic, is designed with practicality and versatility in mind and manages to squeeze in some quality components like sapphire crystal,?Super-LumiNova and a Seiko automatic movement, all for $399. We were really excited to receive an Oceanis for review a few weeks ago, and to discover just how successfully Anstead has turned its Kickstarter project into a reality.Case: SteelMovement:?Seiko NH36a automatic with 24 jewels at 21,600 bphDial: BlackLume: Super-LumiNovaLens: Sapphire with antireflective coatingStrap: Leather, SiliconeWater Res.: 300mDimensions: 44 x 51mmThickness: 14.3 mmLug Width: 22 mmCrown: 7 x 5 mm screw downWarranty: 1 yrPrice: $399

Price help please
GuysI have an Omgea midi that has been my daily wearer since 2005. It does have the usual desk marks and the clasp seems a little stiff. It also has a mark on the bezel near the 5 past position. I have included detailed pictures as I honestly have no clue of what I should ask?Your help is much appreciatedThanksMartin

Bezel refinishing
This engine turned bezel is pretty worn, even though we can only refinish the shiny blocks sticking out, it still makes a huge difference.
