unregistered Posted January 30, 2011 Report Posted January 30, 2011 Unboxing time Size comparison: Seiko Monster, Sinn U1, Helson Sharkmaster, RXW MM20 Lume shot, 1s exposure, elapsed over 3+mins Lume is a little disappointing considering the sheer size of the lume areas, I would have expected at least Monster comparable intensity. Other than that, this wears great, has a really nice fit on the wrist with the 4:10 crown position, offset with the meaty buckle. I think I prefer it on the rubber to the tegimented bracelet. I've always wanted to try this one out since I saw it a number of years ago and loved the hands, but its just one of those pieces that is just so "cheap" pre-loved you always think, ah, I'll get it next time. I think for the money, this this a very very well done diver with great features. I don't like how the prices have increased this year, but c'est la vie, that's what happens to popular brands, but I'd suggest anyone on the fence, to get one. Between this and the rep, its amazingly close, I had to call a mate to confirm with him what the tells were before I picked this up and they are really small. I'm going to try and get one from a local guy and do a side by side photoshoot.

_brian_ Posted January 30, 2011 Report Posted January 30, 2011 You have Sinn-ed and now confessed on rwg. Well, we are all merciful here, your Sinn is forgiven. Very nice watch! Congratulations to your Sinn!
ExtraExtra Posted January 30, 2011 Report Posted January 30, 2011 Nice. At first glance, I thought your Helson was a Plopprof.
unregistered Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Posted January 31, 2011 (edited) Nice. At first glance, I thought your Helson was a Plopprof. Its an Homage to the Le Grand Ploprof, the SM 1000. The current Omega SM1200 Ploprof is the reissue of the SM600. Here are a lot more pics (http://www.wrist-check.com/showthread.php?9454-Helson-Sharkmaster-(Blue-destro)) Edited January 31, 2011 by unregistered
