The Straum Opphav Black is widely praised for its exceptional dial design, with owners and reviewers highlighting its unique, nature-inspired colors and dramatic, textured surfaces that create a floating dial effect. The finishing on the dial and case is consistently described as high quality, with some owners feeling it rivals watches costing significantly more. The bracelet also receives positive remarks for its build and design, though one owner found the clasp development lagged behind. Some owners note that the crown guards can slightly impede winding, but this is generally considered a minor issue easily overcome by shaking the watch. Opinions are mixed on the dial color, with one owner finding the green less appealing than pictured, and another finds the proportions awkward due to the wide case and short lug-to-lug distance. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Straum Opphav Black highly for its impressive dial and case finishing at its price point.
