“As I wrote in my main review, it's a beautiful watch, but won't stay that way long unless they replace the plastic "sapphire glass" with a real glass. The false statement on their website:
"The domed crystal is made from ultra-scratch resistant sapphire glass."
When in fact this is the same plastic dome as the older watch.
Xeric, please correct this. I was assuming I was just sent an old model, but the lack of response suggests the switcheroo was intentional.”

“If a certain hero turned a certain evil space station directly into a comet, this is what the view would look like. Jokes aside, this is a stunning watch to behold. There were several color combinations available when I purchased mine, and oh man did I struggle to pick one. In the end, I am very happy with my choice. The copper color draws in your attention, and then you start to see all of the details. The unique second hand, the unusual hour and minute hands, and the meteorite. We haven’t even talked about the back yet! The rotor has a stunning amount of detail. It is a true shame that it is hidden all of the time. But YOU know...
The history it signifies is one that merits no jokes. It is a serious moment in history, but this watch is a beautiful reminder of what humanity can achieve.”
“Appealing to watch fans and space buffs alike, the Trappist-1 is one of a kind. An impressive piece, the Trappist-1 begs to be noticed. For those of you that have only ever owned a quartz watch before, this watch has not only size, but weight. Purchasing an automatic watch is truly taking a first step into a larger world. Not only is the face a beauty to look at, but even the back is stunning with the visible weight modeled after the Apollo 11 mission patch. However, at the end of the day, no matter how much of conversation starter this piece may be, remember, this is for you. You've chosen this watch because YOU like how it feels, YOU love how it looks, YOU are excited about real meteorite, and YOU want an automatic watch, a future family heirloom. Get it for yourself. Sharing it with others is just a bonus.”
“I pre ordered this watch earlier this year and patiently waited for it to arrive. I was excited to see it came ahead of schedule but was even more excited to unbox the watch. I was not expecting it to be so beautiful. This is one of my favorite watches of my collection.”
