MALDONADO 8 Posted August 22, 2013 In tropical seas, in shallow water, the light is at times obscured by a huge shadow. It is the sea devil evolved into the waves with twists, displaying his great and mysterious arrows. However, despite his frightening appearance, this huge purchase for those who have seen and had, has a temperament Alicantino, and does not deserve the bad reputation it has. Benarus Watch Company is a small company based in Munich, Germany. The devil of the sea is the second design launched by the company after the Barracuda The Sea Devil Benarus, is a professional diving instrument of high quality which was released in March 2009. A solid 316L steel case with a diameter of 45 mm, 16.5 mm tall, 24mm wide handles, 120 click bezel with excellent grip and all that can withstand the pressure at a depth of 1,000 meters (3,300 ft). Inside the Sea Devil has a 21 Jewel Miyota 8215 automatic mechanical movement with a power reserve of 45 hours. The sapphire glass 4 mm thick and coated inside with an anti-reflective layer of high quality. Produced in a limited edition of 300 units (100 watches black, 50 blue, 50 yellow, 50 orange and 50 white.) I've been pleasantly surprised with the fit and finish of the devil of the sea. The etching back of the box is very well done. There are many details in this design that I like. The color, the contrast of the orange second hand, sapphire crystal with AR coating makes the watch easy to read. The Super Luminova treatment in the indices and hands provides good illumination of the dial in total darkness. Overall, I am very impressed with the design. The back cover is very well marked and engraved with the logo of Benarus limited edition numbering as well as stainless steel, 1000m/3300ft, and sapphire crystal. Each crown is also signed the "B" Benarus, that looks great from the side view, and both screwed and unscrewed solidly and without any play. The dial is very clean, and that is something to celebrate when it comes to a diving watch. The size of the glass sphere is undoubtedly the 32 mm standard, alignment of the bezel is almost perfect and you can not say anything negative, also has 120 click vs 60 not attract me much. The point of lumen at the top is very visible at night. The color blue lumen is very intense light with 8 hours straight, powerful and readable. The only negative is that the dial of the date window is too small for the conference date, and the first digit is a little cut on dates with two digits. The watch comes with a robust solid ENDLINK bracelet equipped with a leather strap with matching stitching and a rubber dive strap. Also included are two different closures of the double-butterfly bracelet and diving with double safety lock. When the devil tries to harpoon sea towing behind the boat turning abysmal wreck.
