    Really like the dial and bracelet, still deciding on the bezel. Overall, a very nice watch. CB makes some nice stuff that tends to fly under the radar of most.

    Mikey, congratulations this is a beautiful piece! The aspects I particularly like from your photos are;

    The dial and dial-furniture are really interesting - the waffle pattern to the dial, the highly raised markers and the unique hand shape.
    The bezel - chunky, highly-readable numerals and lovely blue 15 minute countdown zone.
    It is really solid tool watch. The clasp is impressive (to say the least!) and looks particularly well built. Crown guards speak to this being a watch that can take a beating.
    Lume is strong.

    This is a dive watch that begs to be used. Perhaps my Tag Aquagraph and I can meet you at 500M in the Malacca Strait.

    However, I am not sure about the brontosauruses on the back (brontosauri?)

    Took me a solid 15 seconds of hard looking to realize they were rays. Great pics...cool watch! Wasn't to aware of the brand until seeing the movie 'John Wick'. Lots of CFB's in that movie.

    I think it looks 'the business', and I'm a bracelet kind of guy; but not sure I'd want that much steel wrapped around my wrist
    I'd have to try one on.....
