·No thread about this one yet, but it's in stores and on sale so I figured I'd start one, having just tried it on.
It's pretty nice! Wears nothing like 45mm, it feels exactly like the 43mm regular Aquaracer 300 in terms of size. The titanium case probably doesn't hurt either.
The colors are great - the black lacquer on the dial has a nice sheen to it that catches the eye but doesn't overwhelm the markers or hands, which makes it very pleasant to look at. The bezel with the orange insert looks great in person too along with the orange minute hand.
One interesting detail is the crown guard, which pulls out as a unit with the crown itself - rather than staying in place and causing fiddliness with the crown inside it. I thought this would make it a lot easier to live with.
The big news with the Superdiver (as it always was) is the movement, being a Kenissi designed for TAG. It's a massive improvement over the Sellita in terms of feel - finally, this is a TAG with a true high-quality winding feel. I'm extremely hopeful that we'll see it replace the Sellita across the line in the years to come!
