Just in case you may think "expensive", my wrist is a SEIKO Master Marine 300
Here it is...so 4 watches. sigh. I think "super watches" are stress relieving, it's like having a bottle of fine wine in the middle of artillery fire, while standing in a mud filled hole. I have really done that in real life, during reservist training...of course, I was on the right end of the mortars.
I love this watch. Solid...loads the movement in from the front. Not really "inexpensive", but TRULY a good watch..that actually lives well with the watches preceding this post...chuckles.

Looks very tough
From the photo, it reminds me of a Sub in more ways than one. Agree, who says watches worth collecting need to be expensive, Thanks.
At home, I would occasionally use the "Sumo" Seiko
Here it is...a lighter version of the MM....
Every afternoon...I "dive" here with it..
Sometimes, my 21 year old house is like a dump! My office is way up on the 4 th floor as you can see....and my gym is on the ground floor..the glass room below....
Yes..this one is "old world"
And it is VERY heavy. One of the really great SEIKOs made IMHO..that are outside of the Grand Seikos.
Never figured out why you can't buy them in the U.S.
...among Seiko dive watc enthusiasts, this is their grail watch. Everyone wants one. They'd sell hand over fist here.
last I heard
the reason was that North American service centers were not prepared to support the watch, an honorable if somewhat lame reason. This watch, although beautiful, is very tall (around 15mm, I think), and the case makes no particular accommodation to smaller...
Can't go wrong with the Tuna either
That's what I call a real tool diver. This message has been edited by Davo on 2011-08-24 03:54:22
