There is only one watch that takes the 1st prize, and that is the Citizen. All the others are runners up. I would rate that Citizen against any watch. Beautifully made, super accurate and only out by 4 seconds a month.
The Citizen Pro Masters with the crown at 3 instead of 4 are my preference. But I agree with the general point. I love quartz watches and solar watches are so much the better. There are an infinite sum of good options in other watch styles in Quartz or solar, but not that many good ones in true divers. Citizen is really a good pick in that sense
I have the Turtle, it's a great watch. The original from the 70's is pretty iconic, Mick Jagger wore one, it went on Antarctic expeditions, Ed Harris wore one in The Abyss...
Great list with a decent price range. I would offer for consideration the Phoibos Wavemaster 300. I have the green dial version and it's such a good looking watch with solid specs that also satisfies the "tool watch" catagory. You can pick one up for $300.
You should also take a look at Depth Charge ..for under 130gbp a ceramic bezel, seiko 35 movement and sapphire glass ..it puts the best pound for pound IMHO..and as I usually wear Breitlings this shocked me
Couple weeks ago received my Orient Kano for $160, it instantly replaced my Swiss Military quartz beater. Certina DS Action Powermatic 80 you can get a good deal now, it's just everything you ever wanted in a diver. And MIDO Ocean Star GMT for a little over $1K is 2 in 1 - diver + GMT 80h power reserve killer watch.
Love my Duro, it's a daily and over 2yrs old I'm very hard on watches, have NO scratches on the crystal, and it's in very good shape. The lume is not great, have no issues with the crown, and the second hand hitting the markers is hit or miss(no pun intended). It appears to get better with time, btw(mine is very good). As for how it wears is subjective, on my Average size wrist (17-18cm) I've spent more on straps then on the watch and Love it... Spends most of its time on a StrapCode 22mm Super-J Louis JUB Watch Band Straight End, 316L Stainless Steel Solid V-Clasp Button Double Lock. And on that it really punches above it's weight.
I have the Citizen in blue and it’s a heckuva deal at around $200-250. It’s one of two watches in my daily wear rotation. The only complaint is the strap is gaudy - I replaced it with an Island Watch bracelet pretty quickly. I will say the Orient is a beautiful watch, especially at the price. Christopher Ward is also killing it right now.
No.9 you've mixed up 2 watches there - the Orient Kamasu 2 (the one with the patina lume) and the Orient Mako 3 (which has arabics at 6, 9 and 12). The case is the same but the new Mako 3 has finally solved the issue with the crown that was impossible to unscrew/ screw in. I've owned both, for less that £250 its unbeatable value from a mainstream brand for the specs.
I prefer the Rotary Seamatic, 300m water rating, ceramic bezel, saphire crystal, very nice finishing (mostly brushed with some high quality polish) and comes with a deployment clasp with dive extension. Insanely good watch for 180 pounds, Only downside is the miyota 8215 movement, however it is very reliable and keeps that price down
Some pro divers say that sapphire is not an ideal crystal material for dive watches - too brittle they say. Better to go for mineral or **gasp** acrylic! With that in mind, may I recommend the Citizen Promaster Diver NY0040-17L (the blue one). Mineral crystal, in house auto movement, 42mm steel case, all for less than £200. After wearing it for a few years, what endears me to it is how comfortable it is to wear. The crown is in the most sensible place and the case is sculpted with very smooth curves wherever it touches the skin. The dial is good, too, with a sunburst finish that is attarctive without being too gaudy. Practical enough for one version to be chosen by the Italian Navy for military purposes. You really have to try it on to appreciate what it is - a good looking practical tool with no unnecessary frills for a very low price.
Too brittle? A sapphire crystal is less resistant to knocks than a mineral one? A sintetic material second in hardness only to diamond? 😂😂😂 That's totally nonsense. Tell you fella scuba divers they are totally wrong. It's crystal, yes, but not that wine flute crystal. That's really brittle. You can hammer a nail into the wood with a sapphire crystal. Try to do it with mineral or plastic ones...
I have a Duro with pepsi bezel, I've put it on a comfy nato and I love it. Nice to wear, legible, looking good and it's really good quality for the money.
I’d add the Certina DS Action Diver 38mm as an alternative Swatch group pick. Well-regulated Powermatic 80 movement, modest case size and genuine diving heritage for a little over £700.
Get the 43mm. Ceramic bezel and the adjustable bracelet is 1000x better than the 38mm one. I would argue it is one of the best adjustable bracelets you can get.
@@iLeetjeeh i agree. i have owned the green one for 2 months now and it runs about 0.5--1 sec slow while wearing and then +1 while on the desk, also the braclet and clasp is really nice. The only thing i dont like is that the clasp has some sharp edges when you extend the adjustment. ps: the watch really is kinda heavy, 205g with all links if im not wrong
@@iceman01gun There is a titanium version of the 43mm one! It does come at a premium though. Never had issues with sharp edges but I have a 7inch wrist so I only adjust my bracelet when it's hot outside and my wrist is slightly larger.
No 3 is what I would go for! The CW trident pro 300 diver. Love the finishing, how thin the watch is, and the rotor is even better decorated than the submariner
Terrific list! I have the Casio and the Citizen, and love them both. The Invicta Pro Diver, however, is even more of a bargain than you stated. I own a number of Pro Divers, which can often be found under $100. My most recent purchase just a couple of months ago cost only $60.
My POV Citizen Promaster Eco Drive is best choice. Because it has high precision compared to non swiss automatic drives. However, it lasts kind of forever with one battery. And one can buy it in titan which looks very elegant, too.
I’ve just got a Citizen titanium watch, £320 and disgusted to find out that Citizen are as lax as Seiko at lining up the Dial and rehaut Alignment is shocking. Some good recommendations 👍🏻
Revue Thommen diver and Gevril Wallstreet, both Swiss made and well known automatic movements. Quality, accurate, 42 and 43mm respectively. Own both and very satisfied.
Great comparison. The Tissot seastar is the only one less than 40mm and less than 10mm with accuracy of 20 seconds per month, so the only one that ticks both boxes: "actual timekeeping watch" and "wearable jewellery"!
Citizens BN2036 allways gets left out. Far under 1000 bucks. Beautiful design. Eco drive with power indicator and sharp bezel sound and and actual depth meter that records how deep you have been. A true upgrade to the shown one.
Just bought the Casio and Seiko watch too. The Casio is made in different colors so I bought the one with the red and black bezel. Beautiful watch. Then Amazon had a price reduction for a blue Padi solar for slighty over 200 dollars. Just couldnt resist both.
the black dial is amazing looking. I have a physician friend who owns omegas and tudors etc etc... he keeps his Aquascaphe dual-crown in his rotation, he just loves it.
You have to looks at the case from the lower side and you will see a turtle shape. Also the case from the top resembles a turtle shell. Best watch in this list
Haha, recently put an ebay bid on a Tissot Seastar, then AFTER bidding realised that it was a quartz....I'm a horrible anti quartz snob (on watches that look like they should be mechanical). Never been so glad when someone outbid me! :D Out of the ones in your selection, it would be either the Baltic, or the Seiko for me. The Baltic for it's classic Blancpain looks, and the Seiko purely for it being the reliable and trustworthy Seiko (Ignoring recent QC issues regarding alignment of bezel/chapter ring etc. !).
I miss the Longines Hydroconquest and the Glycine Combat sub... Then there's also the Zodiac Seawolf which honestly has the coolest name ever (the movement not much in my experience, shame). But at the end of the day, I'll strap on my Citizen Prodiver automatic (in titanium) when I go for a dive. Because it's brilliant.
My opinion: Ruggedness look: Seiko Tuna SNE541 and/or Citizen Olive Ecozilla BJ8057-17X Retro look: Christopher Ward C65 super compressor For my girlfriend: Tissot seastar 36mm blue Value for money: Orient Kamasu. Any color, bracelet or nato....do not like rubber band on them.
1 water resistant , 2 antimagnetic , 3 shock resist plus legibility while used in the dark definitely brings out the sense of adventure - reliable companion⌚
Good topic and video! I would like to add a dive watch to my collection and am looking within this price range. I have no personal experience with any of these, but have you considered Nodus Retrospect, Scurfa Diver One (Teddy Baldassarre just released a review video today), Deep Blue Diver 1000 II (there are more models but I am looking at this model), or Dan Henry 1975?
@@andgate2000 The meter ratings are NOT a true indicator that the watches can go to those depth. Recreational divers generally dont go beyond 130 ft. Commercial divers no more than 300. Both of them would be crazy to dive them as a life support system, For the past several decades divers rely on dive computers and bottom timers. All dive watches no matter how good they are, are really a tool of the past. No different than chronograph’s. I love to see them and perhaps use them as daily drivers, but never for diving.
I have two of the lovely green version of the Citizen dive watch. I bought the 2nd one by mistake but realized that if one ever wore out, I would have another brand new one as backup.
I think the Citizen promaster mentioned is actually 44mm, not 42. But I would hope someone buying one would check that. That’s my favorite watch of the bunch by the way.
A bit of a mix up with the Orient models fellas but that's pretty easy to do! They have a ton of great divers from $150 and up and all offer similar value.
You don't have to be 'dench ' to wear the Seiko turtle as it's only 47 mm lug to lug. If you're thinking about buying one of the Seiko 5 srpd diver style watches that keep getting recommended, try the turtle on first. A proper watch.
Tom has Speedos, no way! So gents, Seiko Turtle or CW or Halios would you pick, all things considered. And is the new updated turtle with sapphire glass a better watch and deal? Regards, Your Canadian cousin Chris
A field watch with divey tendencies would also be the Boldr Chrono titanium. Also, surprised you guys didn't mention the Seiko King Samurai, but I guess the Seiko Turtle is a extension to "check out the other Prospex divers"😂. Top notch clip. Love the chemistry between you two
Batista with an automatic is available $750. The case on the automatic is also two or more attractive. I feel like just left is a bit wonky. Still a great list of watches
The Kamasu II is just brilliant. It's obviously a Sub/SMP type watch, but they've dialled it in to be it's own thing. The Ray-type round indices look more timeless and readable than the version 1 of the watch. If they could only figure out a way to do their notched bezels in ceramic; the aftermarket SKX bezels make Orients look more chunky than the original bezel.
I still cannot believe hands have excatly same voice as you
I can't believe THOSE hands have the same voice. Madness

Try faux patina (fauxtina) and shark mesh (thick Milanese) next time.

Invicta's problem is that they need more branding on their watches.
Exactly when I was deciding what to get for my first dive watch!
Anyone know about Titan octane 90113KP01. The cheapest dive watch in the world ?
I don't understand why some of these divers have day date. It kills the symmetry.
