Afternoon,

I've been hunting for a suitable everyday dive watch. Originally I was after a WatchCo SM300 but I can't seem to get hold of a used example, and new they're out of my price range.

However I've just stumbled across Helson, as US make that uses ETA movements - nice looking watched in my opinion and I can get one for a shade over £400!



Has anyone got one?

Thanks, it does seem like they are well regarded, and a great price. Really like the look of them too.

Thank you all for your replies and information, as always, very helpful.

My quest for a dive watch took a surprising turn yesterday.

I'd originally been after an Omega SM300, probably one by WatchCo in Australia, on the basis an original was, for now, not justifiable. A surprise trip to a watch dealer yesterday with my wife, one early birthday present later, I am now the very proud owner of an original 1968 SM300, authenticated, refurbished and serviced by Omega. The dealer has supplied a 2 year warranty. Dodgy phone picture below.
