That is a smart watch! Enjoy :)

Really like that, another for the Christmas list
That is one big old beast. Handsome thing but way too big for me; which is my loss.
Fantastic lume!
Get the Helson Stingray Bronze 43mm;-)Originally Posted by halfscrew
I was about to write much the same.
Great, great watch - especially nice to see a matching buckle, but that date window is terrible.
Overall, I love it! Great buy!
This whole brass and bronze thing is really starting to grow on me..... Nice watch.
Really nice looking watch!
Am I the only one that does not like the patina build up on these bronze/brass watches? I think if I owned one I would be cleaning it regularly to keep it looking brand new.
Congrats!
There is nothing right or wrong when it comes to patina. Some like the clean look, some like the extreme patina. The good thing with these bronze watches is, that you can make it just the way you prefer.
Lovely looking watch, congratulations! The hour markers are superb. How are you finding that buckle? I recently bought and posted pics of my Armida A7 which had a similar shaped and sized buckle - and for me it was just too bulky, so I have swapped for a NATO. You look to have considerably larger wrists than me so perhaps it isn't an issue!

I bought the buckle direct from Helsons web-site: http://www.helsonwatch.com/accessories.php
I have no problem with this buckle, it fits perfectly:-)
The strap is lovely, did that come with the watch? Really compliments the brass.
Henrik what a superb looker! Enjoy. As it changes colour you will engage with it even more. Then you can polish it and start all over again. A watch with a built in cycle.
The watch comes with a rubber strap only. The strap you see in the pictures are from an German company, here is an link for you:

Congrats! Nice Diver.
I like Helson stuff but 47 mm is way to big for me.
congrats on a great Watch. I have actually just sold my 45mm Helson Shark Diver in bronze with af Brown dial.
Wear it in good Health.
Great looking watch but too big for me
Congrats and enjoy.
I think the buckle on the A7 makes the strap really uncomfortable, I've ordered another one from BradJ on anchorleather.netLovely looking watch, congratulations! The hour markers are superb.

You could of course play with an old S/S buckle and a lighter.....
I'm tempted with the bronze SharkDiver 42, probably more comfortable on my 6.75" wrist...
Great watch! Congrats!
I myself wouldn't go for a 47 mm watch... too big.
Really like that. I'd have to go for the smaller size, but it's a great design. That's a great choice of strap there as well - and good value as well.
Beautiful, on the plus side the intrinsic value of the bronze is worth it
Big Helson fan and miss my 45mmm sharkdiver ,Dont do gold but love the Bronze especially with the unpredictable patina ---brill
Patina opdate. Still looks great i think:-)
Looks stunning, and that's a strap buckle !
Great watch
