Quite like it, but dont understand why it has the wave logo at the case back for a brightz phoenix model?

There is a non LE version which should cost a little bit lesser:

Borrowed pic.

I love that big crown.

A dressier version without the bezel:

Both are yummy!

seiko divers sure got tsunami caseback one mah

not my cup of tea
i still prefer more classic mm300
8L35 movement make the price too high
even the chrono is cheaper

Hmm i didnt know, i thought for the BP range will have a phoenix logo at the back.
Looks like the LE just change to a orange hand.

Agree with you the MM300 is still the better choice.
This BP looks too similar to the lower end diver of Seiko.
