A waste of money. If you must buy a Novag, purchase the Diamond II. I sadly
bought a Novag Sapphire II from Chess Life about two years ago, and had nothing
but problems with it, and the one Chess Life sent me for exchange. I surmise
that those Sapphire's are extremely sensitive to static and you can easily
render one useless through static electricity. Don't waste your money.
