Love the bead blasted squale. Every time you post it the watch goes back on my list. The only thing that stops me is that I really want a watch that looks like the squale but has an eco drive movt. Or similar. A grab and go tough diver.

Love the bead blasted squale.
Apparently it’s a different finish;
“ So popular was our original Super Matt bead blasted limited edition watch, we have created a new limited edition version of the famous 1521 with a new non-polished finish.
To create something different and contrasting to the Super Matt, we have again worked closely with the case makers at Squale to create a new finish which we call Satinato.”

I own a black dial 1521 Satinato, AMA.
It’s a pure tool diver. No polished surfaces, orange minute hand, anti glare on the sapphire crystal, great legibility. Chunky feeling 60 click bezel, rated to 500m etc. Also the hand alignment is perfect which is more than can be said for a lot of Seikos at the same price point. Really big fan of it.
Re: a discount, just send them an email, say you’re interested in model X and ask them what sort of deal they could do on it. Worse case they say “no discounts, sorry”, but they might offer 5 or 10% or just throw in a strap. Worth a try.
