there are many nice watches with those bands. many not too expensive either. some are also great quality. i don't know if i would personally like the looks of a rolex on a rubber band. the omega seems much more sporty than even the submariner or yacht master to me for some reason.
anyways, the hs is not at all like many of the visconti's. it is outstanding quality as far as i can tell. i have been using it again sometimes. the vacuum is actually much better than vintage ones imo. something like the van gogh or opera is not the same level as the hs. of course that is too be understood. most companies make pens in different price ranges. still, i find it sad that even a $300 pen would fall apart. rest assured with the hs though it is solid. probably glad it is one of the few visconti's i own since it is actually a very nice pen. then take like omas or montegrappa. those are all very expensive pens that often fall apart! like i said it's like italian cars. they can be half a million dollars. that does not mean they are very reliable lol. if one is par for the game than great. i like these things because i know they are not too reliable upfront so it does not sadden me when they break. they look super while they work. on the other hand, german pens seem to be rock solid in any price range. a $75 pelikan is built as well as a $15,000 one imho. likewise the starwalker is as good as a le. well the fact the hs is made from lava earns super cool points on it's own. everything else seems to be some sort of resin or metal. it feels good in the hand too.
