Beautiful watch, congratulations! What's the purpose of the crown in the 10 o'clock position, bezel setter or escape valve? Really beautiful

It's a bezel setter.

Amazing watch, really high on my wishlist...

Going back to your comment about your Rolexes being jealous for a while... it's more like a permanent feeling I guess... in my mind no Rolex holds a candle to the ROO Diver.

Enjoy.

Depends on your point of view I guess.

It's been just over 2 months now. I will say, as much as I love the Diver, I wouldn't consider it superior to either of the Rolexes, and in accuracy terms the Rolex even betters it. I am no WIS but I value 2 very important attributes in my mechanical watches - accuracy and reliability. Then there is fit and finish. I would rate the GMT2 every bit as good as the Diver on that score. But of course, the Diver wins hands down on the beauty stakes..

These days, I wear the GMT2 to work, the SD after work and the Diver exclusively on weekends. So there you go...
