Please help me find a small orange or yellow diver

[summit7]

I would love to have an orange or yellow diver to go with my current black faced diver to wear on days that are sunny or I need a sunshine lift, however I have tiny wrists and my current watch is 36mm and for me is perfect.

The number of times I have nearly bought this is untrue https://www.scurfawatches.com/product/diver-one-d1...

Its simple and I like the aluminium bezel, however at 40mm and 15mm thick I know that i wont be comfortable with it.

Any ideas please?

Can get a superocean 36mm in orange.

I love a Diver watch

No ideas I'm afraid - but look on FB for 'Diver's watches' group (yes with an apostrophe) - I'm constantly amazed by the wealth of brands/models I've never heard of or seen

Greg,

If the Superocean had a number 3 to match the 6, 9 and 12 it would be my watch, it does my OCD to have the numbers and then a date window, sorry.

Take a look here https://danhenrywatches.com/products/1975-skin-div...

You could spec a Quartz 37mm diver.

I have a few Dan Henry's well made, great prices

I always liked the Omega Planet Ocean with the orange strap. I ended up doing a rip off version

The one I was thinking of doesn’t have numerals, or a date - https://www.breitling.com/gb-en/watches/superocean...

You're welcome.

Thank you I had never seen those watches before. The 37mm with steel bezel and 19mm strap is spot on for me.

That's my Xmas present sorted.

Isnt the PH answer - Seiko Orange Monster?

Not if you want 36mm.

Glad to have been of help...
I had a good search for a yellow one, came up with nought, except perhaps a vintage Doxa

Still got mine which I bought on the back of the PH-ism at the time! It's a great watch; in fact I must dig it out, haven't worn it for months now.

These are still available pre-owned SKXA35

I really like that combination.

Not being an expert, which Seiko is that, with what strap?

Cheers, I think it's a SNK809K2 with a cheapy eBay strap

That model Seiko normally doesn't do much for me but I have to say with that strap it's bang on the money!

[VR99]

I paid £160 for this, it's a Seiko 5 sports and I love it....mainly as it wears great on my skinny 6 inch wrist and the green dial/dial texture. Strap is a cheap Amazon jobbie. Slightly chunky height profile so don't wear to the office but that aside its getting plenty of wear now.

Edit: I realise my watch shown below is neither orange or yellow

37mm watch ordered on an orange FKM tropic strap and a 19 mm quick release black short leather driving strap added to the cart.

Most of the time it will live on the black leather but in summer when it is hot and bright I will move it to the orange tropic.

Many thanks to Andrew.

A review and history of the watch is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHMqM3kBUlo not my favourite watch review channel (Peter Costa and Ben's watch club step forward) but a review that helped me.

Will post a picture when it is here probably in the new year.

Thanks for all your help, happy Christmas.

[summit7]

It's been dispatched will post a piccy or two when it is here.

thank you again to Andrew
