£500 Automatic Divers watch
Discussion
Hi all,
Looking to spend around £500 and would like to buy my first automatic watch.
I currently have 2 TW Steel watches, a 45mm canteen on a black leather strap and a 48mm pilot on a black leather strap with red stitching.
I also have a MVMT and a Sekonda but these don't get worn anymore.
I'd like an automatic watch as all of my current watches are Quartz.
I love the Submariner look and want a bracelet strap as my 2 mainly work watches at the moment are both leather strap.
I'm quite a big guy so a big face doesn't look stupid.
There's a couple of TW Steels that I like but I'd prefer something different.
I love the steinharts but I'd prefer to try something on rather than order online.
Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

That's lovely!
I'm leaning towards this at the moment but I'd really rather try it on / buy it in person....

Ocean 44 is definitely at the top of my list at the moment. If I can order it and they'll take the return if I'm not 100% then that may work.
My only concern is the size of the face compared to the thickness of the bezel.
I'd go for the Ocean One but I feel anything less than 45mm will feel small due to my other watches. So the 44 is probably the smallest of want at the moment. I could do with trying on some 42/43mm's I guess.

Finally got my email with the tracking details! The watch should be delivered on Tuesday but will be delivered to my home address and I'll be at work (put my home address as it stated 2-3 days delivery and I've been home this last week). Fingers crossed I can pick it up from somewhere on Wednesday unless they deliver it to a neighbour.
Whilst at Bluewater yesterday I saw a Deep Sea in the Watch Finders window, I'm even more excited for this to come now!!
