I'm paring down my collection and settled on my Aquastar Benthos as my black-dial dive watch. This is version 2 of the Oceanking, which was sometimes preferred over the new version, which some argue is too mainstream. Typical of all Monta watches, the finishing and detail are extraordinary. The case and bezel are in excellent condition. The bracelet shows some wear—which is appropriate for the high-quality tool watch it is. It's adjustable and highly comfortable, as all Monta bracelets are. $1250 + insured shipping - CONUS only - PP G/S + 3.5% - PP FF (for well-transacted Redditors) - Zelle Date Stamp: [https://imgur.com/a/bZFsraJ](https://imgur.com/a/bZFsraJ) **Case**: 40mm diameter stainless steel case with a thickness of 11.9mm. * **Bezel**: Unidirectional rotating bezel with a 60-minute graduated ceramic insert, designed for timing dives. * **Dial**: Matte black, blue, or gilt dial options with applied indices, filled with BGW9 Super-LumiNova for excellent visibility in the dark. * **Crystal**: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides. * **Movement**: MONTA Caliber M-22, which is a Swiss-made automatic movement based on the Sellita SW300.
