That's nice, I'm after a dive watch now, must be 39mm or less though, I like the vintage look. Was looking at the Tudor black bay 58, at around £3k, but then started seeing similar by the likes of Rema and especially Squale - whose movements are just as accurate as the Tudor at +- 5 spd. Although the Black bay is lovely, the Squales at a third of the price perhaps might be my option.Quote:

I’ve no experience of Tudor but they are generally well reviewed. I have a Squale I picked up for £475 and I’ve been very pleased with it.Quote:

If you don’t want to spend quite as much San Martin (Ali Express) do a really nice retro diver.

At 42mm probably too large for you but Certina make nice watches with an impressive 80 hour power reserve.

Squale have got a massive catalogue too, reissuing a lot of their old stuff from the 50s-70s, which makes the likes of me very happy! I love that era for watches, but the accuracy of these old time pieces puts me off. Though i do lust after an old Rolex or Tudor date watch oyster watch, with the magified date window.Quote:
