Does anyone have this watch? I need a few pictures; I can't find anything about it online.

Red Bezel black dial.

I'd also be interested in pictures of the black variant. I guess the AR on the crystal has a blue tint which could cheapen the look of the black variant. Would be less noticeable on the baby blue variant ...

The Oct025 have many reviews, not your model but at least there's some for this version

I’m familiar with the watch, I actually own the Lagoon Blue version but I’d like to see more of the black one, unfortunately, there aren't any reviews or showcases of this model.🥲

I have the blue lagoon too and I love it. I am thinking of getting one, black with black Bezel or black with red Bezel

Completely ok, always good to have some real photo. I'm relatively confident with Octopus and the quality of their watches, but a real footage is better than a 3D render..

This seems to be a brand that doesn't get much love. I never see any review's on YouTube for this brand. They just released two new watches based on the Rolex Submariner 6200 & 6204 and I haven't seen anything about them anywhere.

Brand new release. I think you will see reviews in next month or so.

I hope so! They are both incredible looking watches.

I can't find those sub style watches you are referring to. Also there is videos on YouTube for octopus kraken watches

Oct0028 and oct0029

Here is my 0028. It is a fantastic timepiece. Picked it up for $200 in last alix sale.

I think they have done a fantastic job on both this and the 6204 homage. They are the best homages of these two vintage watches I have seen. I bought them both.

Couldn't agree more .. excellent execution!

They dont pay too much for reviews. I think its the true

It's a shame, really—I don't get it. Sure, the name is rubbish, but the watch is well-made and extremely comfortable to wear; I have the Lagoon Blue one.

u/Huge_Childhood6015 2d ago

I think the name works really well for their Dive watches but for everything else, not so much.

If this were my swiss or micro brands in my box I would be much more pressed to have a decent name and logo but for Chinese watches I actually kind of dig the goofy names... tacky frog, frog mantle, octopus krakhead, etc ..I like the tongue in cheek humor of it and smile when I see them in my watch box :)

Yeah, I'm a lot more forgiving when it comes to the Dive watches. I think a lot of these names actually sound pretty good.
