No, I never purchased the previous diver. I simply saw that at my local AD and wished it was smaller. Wishes do come true!

Congratulations. I'm struggling to adjust my bracelet myself and a trip to Govberg's to do it is out of the question. Did you travel to Philly to pick it up? or did someone else alter the bracelet for you?

Thanks! Yes, I flew down to Philly and then headed to the Ardmore store to take delivery and have it sized. Perhaps, you can setup a Zoom meeting and someone at Govberg can help walk you through sizing the bracelet . . .

Just got mine. Holy sh*t balls this watch is awesome. The dial and titanium contrast is unreal. My first Moser and I’m blown away. This has immediately climb near the top of watches I love in my collection and I haven’t even sized it yet!!

Side note, do these come with an additional rubber strap and titanium hardware?? My SA (who is a badass) said he’d try hard to get me an extra strap and sure enough there’s an amazing rubber strap with matching titanium hardware in the box. Did he just hook me up or do they come with it (haven’t seen anything about a rubber strap)??

Shoutout to GovBerg. Once again their customer service has been on point AND they delivered one hell of a limited edition! Even though I just received it (and haven’t sized it) I am enamored with it.

Thanks. Haven’t seen that page on their site. That was helpful. Now I’m going to harass my SA about getting an extra strap!

"Australian English" is English - we're resisting changes like aluminum and hemmorhage :-)

All of these pictures look great and lots of positive feedback. Does anyone have any gripes or nitpicks to share after having spent some time with the piece?

Honestly, this piece checks off many boxes and fits perfectly for the brief time I tried it on. The light weight titanium bracelet sealed it for me. Picking mine up next week. 2 more sold today. This is such a unique Moser in several respects ; I had to pull the trigger on it. Victoria at govberg is extremely helpful . I've been doing business with her for years on many other watches .

How does it feel compared to the bracelet?
If it had a clasp I'd maybe wear it a bit but as it's just on a buckle - probably not.

I pick mine up this weekend; I'll find out then. Stay tuned, but in any event, it's a nice option to have.

Just picked it up... Really a perfect size, lighter weight in the titanium, easy micro adjustable bracelet, gorgeous dial, great lume, beautiful movement. Still some available. Victoria at Govberg was a big help. Traded my moser heritage (42 mm was too large) and grand seiko for this beauty... Much happier now :).

I just don’t get how there’s still some of these available. Sheep rushing to buy the dip in 2nd hand market Rolex but overlooking this amazing piece. WTF. Are there no true watch collectors left?
