In this episode of Federico Talks Watches I discuss my top 10 dive watches. Easily the most popular category of watch, this list is chock full of icons. Watches such as the Rolex Submariner, Omega Seamaster, Tudor Black Bay and Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. There certainly is no shortage of cool watches. Let me know what you guys think or if I missed a piece.

Always love the Blancpain 50 and adding the JLC was a nice touch, their divers are pure class
When your Royal Oak falls overboard, I think you'll be glad that somewhere in the bottom of your tackle box is an SKX.Just sayin.
hahahaha.... comment of the day!
"But this is my list!" That line by itself started my interest in the Tudor Black Bay. Wasn't even on my radar at the time I watched this. I ended up buying the burgundy Black Bay. It's my first high-end watch. Thanks!
Oris fit and finish crushes many watches 5x their price.... glad they were included.
I love the Bremont s500. The green one looks great in sunlight, but the blue one has the most beautiful lume. Google some pics of those. Perhaps some day I'll buy one of these. The rubber strap matches so well with the watch that I prefer it over the bracelet.
Just got a 2005 rose gold FF limited to 100 pieces. Love it.
Fredrico whom I respect thinks the Blancpain has a delicate movement for a dive watch. What I love about mine is the 140hr power reserve and the accuracy. Always moving when I wake up late and hardly have to reset this watch. About being delicate I deep dive with the Fifty Fathoms and works perfect. Seems pretty tough to me.
Delicate maybe, but what quality and class. I'll take it anyday
Love the Oris aquis date.. So underrated...Keep up the good work!
Very good! Some others to heap on the pile….the IWC Aquatimer Deep Three, the Ulysse Nardin Marine Diver, and the Seiko Marinemaster Spring Drive
Love them all!
I particularly liked the Tudor with the vintage leather strap similar to the one you have in your Rolex sub, looks great, I wonder where can I get one of those??
Greetings from CDMX!
Sinn U2 EMZ, does not have the block hands and looks amazing! Thanks for the videos, love your input and enthusiasm for watches1
Another fantastic video sir. I did not know Blancpain had made the first diver. Learn something new everyday.
Im glad you found it educational...
Great video as always. You should do a top ten GMT watches😊
Great vid Federico. Love the JLC Deep Sea Alarm. Had never seen that model. I have the Aquis BTW and love it. Cheers:)
Not a bad list Freddy but I take issue with one quip regarding the Superocean. That watch when it came out had a base price in 2010 of just over 3k with the rubber strap. They are going used today depending on condition for 2 to 3k. I know because I own a few Breitling watches and this is one of the ones I bought in 2011 tax free for just under 3k in 2011 money and that was with the entry level strap. I did purchase the metal bracelet later on. I’m glad you put it on the list anyhow.
That IWC is a beauty! Wow :O
Very glad to see the Aquis on the list! Love Oris :) SKX would have made my person list.
Great video!
Really glad to see Oris on this list. They are really underappreciated. At their price point they are a great option. for me, the Fifty Fathoms is nails.
Tudor! Pelagos or Black Bay.. You should pick them both. BIG SMILE! Great video Federico!
The Pelagos is the better tool watch but the Black Bay much like the Sub is better in every other situation.
So happy that my Oris Aquis made the list! Wish I could add more from your list. Fantastic top 10 list Federico...
Another great video. This is an extremely robust category and you an excellent job of sifting through it for us. Much appreciated.
I think the Seiko Marine master 300m professional should be on the list.
Nice line up Federico thumbs up!
i didn't know JLC have a diver line.thats why its nice to have you guys showcase brands and there line, for the newbie like me to know. thanks!
Aquis my 1st swiss watch.
Aquis is sweet! Glad you enjoyed it Jason!
IWC is a beauty. I'd like to give an honourable mention to the Ulysse Nardin divers and the Bremont S500. Brilliant quality pieces.
EXCELLENT VID FRED!
Just watched this video again after a few months and noticed how good the selection really is subjective to variants within the specified brands, wonderful brands no doubt. Just one that I own that does get snubbed for some reason is the Ulysse Nardin divers. Great quality for great pre owned prices.
Seiko tuna marine master is a winner too.
Well done Federico, thanks for sharing your passion!
Totally agree with sentimental pick, I've been wearing my Red Black Bay regularly for the past two years and I am not getting tired of it!
Excellent presentation and very informative. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Great choices. I loved all the pictures and history for the Panerai.
I have been watching your videos quite a time but never left any comment. Compliments from my side, you are doing a great job and I particularly like they way you talk and appreciate your expertise. I am in love with dive watches and if you only mention 10, for sure there are so many out there. I agree, there should be at least one Seiko, their dive watches are just so gorgeous. But also OK, this are luxury divers right. Happy you mention Breitling, lot of love for these too. Keep going on and wish you all the best. Alexander
Actually love dive watches. Great list, would give the Rolex Deep Sea Dweller an honourable mention though.
Nice list, Federico! One minor correction: The Seamaster 300M has a diameter of 41mm, not 42mm. (Lug-to-lug distance is about 47mm)
Got it Kolbjorn. Thanks for that
Omega also produces this model in midsize (36mm).
yup, Prince William wears one...
Also, can you please turn off sounds on your PC while you record? I go hunting around my desktop every time there's an alarm sound from your computer in your videos.... :-)
Would be interesting to see the top tool dive watches.
Great video federico as usual !! I have a question that might make a good topic for your Chanel. I'm looking at buying my first high end piece and wondering what your views are on budgeting for a watches and what percentage of your savings is a sensible amount to spend an a particular watch before it's a stupid decision?
Some decent watches and I definitely get the bb and pelagos debate as I did it and pulled the trigger on the the inhouse pelagos simply on technical prowess. now that the bb bronze is out I feel that it is the king of the divewatch category
Just joined up and trying to catch up on all the vids. Being a dive watch fan, of course this was one of the first I had to watch. Great list, and happy to see a watch I actually own make the cut, the Oris Aquis. I also have the 65. Oris gives you great value for the money.
You hit the preverbal nail on the head. I agree with everyone, and I happen to, as you do own quite a few on your list. The Oris is the Chevy of the bunch which I use all the time to dive,I have a Breitling Avenger Seawolf at 10,000 meters I use it as well to dive. I sold my Rolex for a Panerai just because I'm Italian and I want a piece of Italian history, I own the Blancpain, but as you say now quit as durable as one would expect at $8,900 per owned. The Tudor, I own the same one in your video, the red and distressed strap...... a Real homerun..!!!! And finally you have to give credit to the Seiko SKX007 Automatic, otherwise known as the Double "O" 7 (007). A real robust watch that can be serviced all over the world by any watchmaker and if you are in need of a hammer the Seiko can do that too. I hope you could add this few to your list.
Thanks, Rocco
Great list, would have swapped out Oris Aqua with Oris 1965 Diver as I prefer the vintage inspiration.
Another great video Federico
Impeccable taste Federico, I agree with you on most of those! I wish the Blancpain was available in a ~40mm size though...
I appreciate your providing the history on Panerai. Great knowledge, as usual. What do you think of the AquaDive Bathyscaphe 500? Happy the Black Bay is on the list.
I agree, the Aquadive should be in the top ten, especially as the movement alone is worth a discussion.
Love the Oris Aquis but I for some reason I was under the impression it had a Sellita movement
It absolutely does.
Spot on with the list! 100% agree in the Oris Aquis! Great build quality, its own cool look and from an independent brand!
I realize your list is luxury, have you heard of Magrette? This is a diver with Miyota movement and is about $550. Very well put together watch. You should do a video on affordable automatics, from maybe Germany or Microbrands from around the world that you have knowledge of. thanks for the great content. Always appreciate it.
Also pls suggest between Omega 300Seamaster & Carl F. Bucherer Patravi Scubatec.
I went to a shop to purchase Omega and he was like convincing me that Bucherer is a bigger and solid brand than Omega or Rolex.
Pls comment on this brand. Thanks.
Love that BP FF
Really good selection of watches, but I would add the Ulysse Nardin Marine Diver
I don't think it's very popular with US buyers, but I think the ZRC Grands Fonds re-edition is one of the funkiest but coolest vintage throw back sort of watches to come out in the last few years. The crown at six o'clock is just so unique!
Hi, Federico: another great list. I was happy to see your Tudor Black Bay choice. To compete with the Oris, I would list either the Longines Hydro Conquest or the Longines Legend Diver.
Your review style is perfect; 10 watch reviews in 11 minutes. I'll try on the JLC deep sea alarm and see if it makes my grail list. TUDOR- I have tried all the divers on, including the bronze. I preferred (and brought) the Pelagos Blue - only after waiting for a bronze to try. Ultimately I preferred the tool watch look over the Black bays dress/dive look. Also didn't like the case thickness of bb, Pelagos has same thickness but pulls it off due bigger case. As you have a large wrist and you like the bb you should check out the bronze, it wears the same size as Pelagos.
I have to say I did not expect Federico making a list of divers without the SKX
Wanted to keep the list to luxury pieces only...
Decided to get a Tudor Black Bay (red bezel) mainly because of this video. It wasn't even on my radar until Frederico said, "but this is my list." I was considering the Omega 300 as well, but couldn't get past my dislike of the skeleton hands and the design of the bracelet. Proud of my Black Bay! Thanks Frederico!
Very VERY good list. My favorite recent pick-up Aquis as well as my holy grail Deep Sea alarm so yes, diggin' it. Thanks for rocking the Eterna, it deserves the love.
Hi Federico, do you like micro brand divers? I'm a huge fan of micro brand divers. Vintage VDB, Zixen, Kaventsmann, Immelmann, Ennebi, Berbinder & Brown, and Dievas. Kingsley makes cool pilot watches.
Great list Federico. I think I'd consider adding the DOXA SUB dive watch. Swiss, luxury price point, non-decompression dive time bezel, hi-vis orange dial. Not my fav to look at though but I suppose some like the look of it.
What do you think about Squale 1521 or Seiko dive watches?
Seiko Marinemaster! Interesting video..cheers Frederico!
Cool list.... though I'd have gone for a pre-1970s Seamaster 300 or the latest heritage inspired version, the JLC master compressor (that cool Navy Seals one) and (your only major omission) I'd have *definitely* 100% put at least one freaking Seiko in there!
Thanks for the video Federico, take care.
lol Arthur, you are not the only one who mentioned the seiko.... I wanted to keep the list luxury only
To my eyes the JLC & Blancpain are simply stunning, though I wish the later offered a no-date version & wasn't so steeply priced. Glad to see that Oris was listed with some mighty big hitters.
The best Oris variant is the small seconds Titan. Looks great, light and comfortable. I know this because i have owned 8 Oris Aquis pieces. Its the best of all. Can not go wrong and what a bargain pre owned.
A list of divers without the Dweller and the Planet Ocean... well... non of the watches mentioned can really compeat with this two
Love the Fifty Fathoms. The domed aspect of the sapphire bezel and crystal is a an extra layer of difficulty in mfg. The IWC is a more basic implementation.
yes absolutely... Much more basic... also less then half the price ;)
What happened to the Seiko Tuna 1000m? Automatic movement, titanium case with L shape seal which requires no helium escape valve. The iconic ceramic coated tuna shroud. The brightest lumínica on the market. 7 years in development. And also what about the Iconic orange dial Doxa Sub 750?
Particulary like that IWC and the Blankpain one. They seem very nice and not common. Other alternative would be the Longines Legend Diver, just like the Panerai you suggest. Best regards from Portugal!
I almost included the legend diver...
I love your channel. I've been binging since I found it. Thank you for the work you put into it. With so many boutique/micro brands out, I'd like to see something about them. I have an MKII, and had a Steinhart and Helson. I'd like to hear your take.
Casio MDV 106 1AV ...$70.00 ...200 meter ! Great beater vacation watch . Nice one Federico ! Wishing you continued success .
Thank you so much Mark!
Another good video, keep them coming I'm watching every one of them,so interesting.
thank you so much Val
Nice video. What's your opinion on Carl F. Bucherer Patravi Scubatec?
Hi. As an alternative I would have included the Linde Werdelin Oktopus with the reef computer. Very unique and different alternative from the different options available out there. Best regards
That is a super cool watch... Might have to make a video about the...
You covered most of my thoughts, though I hadn't considered the JLC. What about Longines divers, especially the Heritage '67 with the red bezel and Chrono? Any thoughts on it. As you know Longines have several divers in their current heritage range.
Hello Frederick what about Sinn U1 and U2 watches?
How is the fifty fathoms a fragile movement? Compared to others in their lineup perhaps. Where can you get a jlc deep sea alarm these days??
I would love if you did a strap video. Many of us struggle to buy the right one. I just got a deal on a genuine alligator from DeBeers, but I wish I knew more. I love the Hirsch straps, but they are so expensive. Some guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Horween Handmade straps
check out "Anchorwatchstraps" on Etsy...undervalued because its handmade stuff made by a girl
***** Thanks
Great vid as always Federico. I Love the sub.... but these new Tudor Black Bay's look really sharp now.
tough choice right!
how about the Breitling Chronometre Certifie, good to 1000 meters?
Great vid Federico. Just love the JLC diver with alarm. However, it comes with a premium price given It's a limited edition. Would it justify the extra coin?
Good to see the Blancpain get the nod it deserves. Keep up the good work. Might have put a Doxa diver in there, lots of history in that brand.
Doxa is certainly very very cool
Just watched again and remembered DOXA. Are they still around?
Porsche, very nice diver with depth gauge and flip out case!
Good list. I might have considered a Seiko MarineMaster but, like you said, it's your list!
Federico, I guess the Seiko 5 is a bad example, but I think all the Seiko Spring Drive and Grand Seiko Diver's have a Sapphire Crystal and you have to admit, they are luxury watches, with attention to detail that rivals the Rolex Sub. Thanks for your videos.
Absolutely... But my issue with grand seiko isn't the quality... I will make a video on the topic (no doubt it won't be very popular lol)...
Plenty of big hitters in there of which the JLC is probably my favourite.
For some reason I love the Breitling Superocean ! Great video
thanks Federico cool video
Do you know anything about the WCT 1000 diver?
Love the 111, I had a 112 but sold it to fund a 372. I still miss it, and might get a 111 one day.
Some great choices..the JLC is just so cool....
Thank you sir!
And I'm also a sucker for Panerai;I really agree with you on this list
Great list that is Federico, just for once try a pre 2011 Omega Planet Ocean and you will instantly add it to your list.
I actually really frickin like them, but Ive never held one...
Any thoughts on the old vs new Seamaster 300?
Thoughts on the Cartier calibre diver?
Very nice presentation, Federico. Remember, the Aquis that I also think highly of, has a Sellita SW-200-1, not a 2824. Just helping you on this. Take care.
Correct.
Great video again. I realise it says luxury in the title, but a best diver list should have the SKX in it. Keep up the good work Federico!!
Superb master! superb!
i have an aquis so of course i gave this an absolute thumbs up
I'm glad to see the Oris on the list, I love mine. Dive watches are really cool, but honestly I used a dive computer when diving. It's way more useful and much cheaper
Rolex Sea Dweller/Deepsea should have been on the list-I don't think any other watch on your list holds a candle in front of a Sea Dweller/Deepsea ( just my op.)
Good video Federico! I was wondering, did you ever get a chance to wind the new orient Ray Raven? I know that you wore it briefly. Did it wind smoothly?Weird question I know, but I love a smooth winding watch.
oris pro diver and the Breitling superocean heritage with that gorgeous mesh bracelet how could you miss that one fed !!
not my taste....
Frederico, what is your opinion on the Cartier Seatimer, I know its not really a "dive" watch but more of a sports style dress watch. Would like to hear thank you!
Nice choices. Patek Aquanaut Travel time also great piece 👌
not quite a dive watch though is it? Im not sure...
Good point; I guess I like diver/yacht/water-friendly pieces for the weekend and this one is a great example of something you can wear at the beach (let's be honest most of us don't go diving with our dive watches) and then go out to dinner with later on without looking overly utilitarian. It also has GMT to boot
hahaha nailed it... you definitely have a point!
I mean its snorkelling at best and even then I'd wear a Suunto instead
Dude, these vids of yours are awesome!!
