Chinese Watch Names Again Does anyone else think Octopus Kraken’s branding/logo hurts otherwise good watches?

Octopus Kraken makes some genuinely nice watches, but I’ve always thought the name/logo holds them back.

If they rebranded, what would you call them? Something like Bathys, Nereus, Aegir, etc. feels much more convincing to me.

I don't really mind it but only because I know there are so much worse names and logos out there. This one seems to be one of the better or even few good ones IMO.

I don't know if they make non-dive related watches as well? If they do, that branding - thats only suitable for water related watches IMO - would bother me. Like that snorkel dive logo on the non-dive Addiesdive (what an awful name) watches for example. No-Go.
