The Zelos Helmsman 2 300m is praised for its aesthetically pleasing design, with one owner finding the titanium dial looks amazing in sunlight and considering the watch a keeper. It features a twin-crown design reminiscent of 1960s dive watches, with a CNC machined, sandblasted, and polished case, and is powered by the Seiko NH35 automatic movement. Some owners note the watch can feel top-heavy with sharp edges. One owner wishes changing the date was easier, as there is no midpoint in the crown, requiring the user to advance the date 22 days forward. Overall, owners rate the Zelos Helmsman 2 300m positively for its striking titanium dial and classic dive watch aesthetic.
