This model is a limited edition of 1,400 pieces worldwide. Overall, owners are captivated by the striking aesthetic of the crystallized titanium and the moon-themed dial.

Owners widely praise the Venezianico Nereide's striking dial design and overall finishing, with many finding its appearance and feel superior in person. The bracelet is noted for its comfort and quality, and the watch is considered suitable for daily wear. Some owners find the case a bit thick for wear under a cuff. The movement is a point of discussion, with one owner preferring a thinner, more accurate caliber over the NH45a, while another review highlights the reliable Sellita SW200-1. The watch is regarded as a good value mechanical diver-style timepiece, featuring a handsome design with a decorative tungsten bezel and aventurine dial, though the stock rubber strap can be stiff. Overall, owners rate the Venezianico Nereide highly for its exceptional dial and finishing at its price point.
