Basically, I'm fancying a change of watch. At the minute I have a Breitling Colt GMT and wanting to sell that (a tad too blingy and shiny for me) and get 1 similarly priced watch or two nice watches within budget.

I really like the look of the Submariner which is obviously above budget, so I've been looking at other, cheaper, diver watches. Eg. the Steinhart Ocean One - what are these like?
40mm - 43mm would be perfect... is there any other suggestions?
I would think it'd get maybe 1.2k for the Breitling? (If someone could tell me I'd appreciate it!)

Sorry for the ramble... thanks!biggrin

Most of the steinhart ocean ones look like you've bought a fake sub imo, with the exception of the Titanium version (different hands etc)

I'd look at a squale 1521 50atm, or a sinn 104 or 103 (not a diver, but lovely).

It has to be the best watch vs value out there.

Thanks for the reply... both lovely watches!

They're all above the 1200 budget frown

Oris aquis, or the sixty five diver are both worth considering as well.
