The Divemaster II Meteorite’s charm is all in the name: Styled like a cosmic rock hurled through space, it’s full of interstellar flair. The dial looks like a piece of fresh concrete, or the surface of the moon Read More
"Styled like a cosmic rock hurled through space" - That word "styled" intrigues/concerns me here. Is the dial ACTUAL meteorite or just "styled" to look like it?
I have an Aragon watch, and although the designs tend to be either too bland or too weird, the quality is quite solid. The price here seemed high, but unlike most Aragons it has a Swiss ETA movement and a sapphire crystal. The former I couldn’t care less about. Are these Swiss Made? Just going from the photos here, who knows? The image resolution is just below what you’d need to see the bottom of the dial, and the close up shots are conveniently tilted back to cover up the bottom of the dial.
Aragon has crazy cheap sales on their watches, especially if you are on their mailing list. I don’t know how low this model has gone.
CloacaIt's currently listed on sale at $800 on their website. Supposedly it's also adjusted to regulate at chronometer spec. If I read it correctly, they made just 100 of each style. The "regular" Divemaster ll with standard face and Seiko automatic movement is on sale for $135.
I say this on every Aragon Drop, but keep in mind Wing(owner) sued Google and won (settled) over the Android watch name. I think that’s cool.
Microbrands are usually 50-50 in terms of whether the owner is a watch guy or a marketing guy. I place Aragon in the same basket as a Zelos - owner is definitely a watch guy. The other end of the spectrum would be those Aquacy/Oceaneva guys who scream about how they’re better than Rolex. They’re not.
45mm with a 17mm thickness is big, but wearable even for a guy with puny wrists like me. I’m wearing a 43mm with a 16mm thickness watch today on my 6.5 inch wrist. Pics below to see how it slides under my cuff.
I hereby rate this a good deal. It’s not for me (wish they would’ve gone with the selitta version), but $550 for a Swiss movement, sapphire, meteorite dial and a bit of name recognition for those in the know seems good to me, if you’re ok with the size.
AragoncollectorMost normal humans prefer 38-42mm watches, so I'm not sure why you would call them "kids watches." Some of us wear watches for our own enjoyment/use, not so that people on the International Space Station can check the time.
