The Bubblehead (Silver)

You can tell a lot about the quality of a wristwatch by the way the company packages its timepieces, and Tenacity makes the grade here in spades! My watch arrived a day early and I was impressed right from the start, one would expect this kind of watch box from a much more expensive watch company. Upon opening the box I fount that my "bubblehead silver" to be everything I had hoped for and more. The large bright blue face with big numbers is a relief on my 67 year old eyes, the size, weight, and movement are what you would expect from a much more expensive watch. Being a retired Chief I have never been a slave to fashion but watch is both modern and fashionable which I'm proud to wear anywhere and anytime. If you qualified submarines this watch is a much have!!!

Great design. Noticeable without being too showy. Quality craftsmanship. Excellence in detail. The ordering, delivery and communications were simple and precise.

I was looking for a submarine watch that wasn't $30,000. I love the dolphins.

Loved the watch, a gift for my father, who served on the Halfbeak SS 352, at the end of the Korean War. Still waiting on the logo back, missed that option when I ordered. That case back should be the default, considering the intent of the watch. At the minimum, put the option button into the order form. I shouldn't have to do a separate email.

Thanks for your time and attention.

TENACITY watch popped up on a Facebook feed , caught my eye as I served on the USS Casimir Pulaski SSBN 633 back in the 80’s . My wife gave the “go” on the purchase . The service was super fast , and packaged quite well . Upon opening I was actually surprised by the visual of this Bubblehead. Upon closer inspection I found a very nicely done timepiece. The slightly domed sapphire crystal (although it’s says flat) , a brushed finished bezel with the pointer at the 12 position , subtle but perfect . The case finish is superb , no ugly , odd angles , and lugs that just fit perfect with the case size . The Dolphins are very detailed and the TENACITY logo balanced with the face of deep blue (like the deep of the sea) , the sweeping seconds hand and hour / minute pointers are an easy read on the time .I’m so glad the date window is next to the 3 marker and doesn’t disturb the balance of the face . The see through case back showing a stout and hard working Japanese movement is a bonus. The onion style screw down crown operates smoothly along with the date change and hacking for time setting . Well done . Onward to the leather strap with a robust buckle with that Dolphin Insignia. The leather is soft and color fits well with this watch . I haven’t tried the NATO leather yet , but it looks great. Having the spring-bar tool is nice for those who are not hard corps watch enthusiasts. Having a love of horology I can say, the price doesn’t reflect what your getting . Surprise yourself with something well worth wearing .
