For me, there is nothing wrong with the watch as you have described it and going by the photos. I also really like the model for the same reasons you mention...it is actually quite unique. I'd just be looking for a little more money off it due to the desk diving scratches though. Personally speaking, I'd be tempted to get the credit card out if they went below $600 CAD.
Those bracelet marks are entirely normal for a well used daily wearer. Does it come as a full set with warranty card?

I originally offered $625 after he told me that he had turned down offers of $550 but he said the minimum he would take would be $650.
I tend to over analyse big purchases like this at the best of times but part of me is thinking I don't need any more watches. Another part is saying just buy a new Ocean One in Steel and put the scratches on it yourself over time. The other part is saying stop being a fanny and just buy this one.
This is the bit I struggle with when I think about actually stumping up the big cash for what I've always actually wanted which is a Speedy which leads me to believe that I'll probably never actually get to the point where I feel like I can pull the trigger on one. I think I'm destined for a life of cheap/affordable watches.

Thanks for the clarification. I was also under the assumption that mint is box fresh but I understand that it's very much open to interpretation by everyone. He said that for the majority of the wear he gave it, it was on a NATO which makes me even more worried about the wear rate of the titanium on these.
Nope dealing in CAD, which according to XE works out to be about $675 at the current rate.
I liked the idea of a Titanium version as it takes it a bit further away from a straight Sub 'homage', especially with the straight sword hands. Now I'm second guessing myself.
This is why I can't have nice things hah.
