I own this Salthora Meta X and love it. It is a diver with a diving bezel displaying time with the jump hour complication. To address a few comments I have read...Everything aligns perfectly, and the fit and finish is done beautifully, including on the crown. It sits very comfortably on my 71/4" wrist, but the standard strap is not of the quality this watch warrants. The ETA 2824 with a jump hour module keeps superb time. During my 2 weeks of ownership, I have not had to reset the time, since it is still well within a minute of the original setting to an atomic clock. Legibility is fantastic, especially important for my tired old eyes. And for those of us who appreciate lume, this Meistersinger does not disappoint. Finally, I must say that Drop's price is very competitive. If any of you folks would like to ask me any questions, I would be more than happy to reply...

larrygHi Larry. Thanks for the info. My only question is: How close to the "60" minute mark does the hour snap to?

heb1Very often the depiction of a timepiece in renderings are not accurate. The alignment of this bezel is absolutely perfect, and the tactile feeling is very satisfying. This is a high end feeling timepiece.

heb1So sorry...The "jump" from one hour to the next happens precisely at the "12" position. (I hope I addressed your question this time.)

larrygThat's exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks.

larrygIs the bezel rotation unidirectional or bidirectional? I prefer bidirectional since it's more convenient and I mostly time non-life-critical things, like how long the steaks have been on the grill.

SeabeastThis Salthora Meta X is Meistersinger's version of a diver, so the bezel is unidirectional. BTW, not being a diver, I also use these bezels for cooking timing. (lol)

larrygHI Larryg, just to confirm; does the number in the jump hour position get the lume also? Not just the hour indices. Is it easy and bright enough to read, as normally with the two hands on a standard diver are heavily lumed so it is easier to read.

JAoneMine, the blue version, has lume for the hour number, and it is very legible in low or no light situations. The one with the red hour number has very little lume and is difficult to read in those same conditions. I hope this helps.
