I'd agree if you could swap face colors and lose the Seiko.

I love my Citizen Hyper Aqualand! It gives me depth, time, water temp. and surface interval at a glance. Its a great everyday watch too.

I like my St Moritz Aquamatic. Haven't actually dove with it since I bought to replace my Fossil that flooded in Bonaire. It feels very well built and it keeps time very well gaining less than 2 seconds per day. I think the prices for all models are good and the service plan is great too. To send it in and have it serviced is cheaper than the local watch repairman near me. However now I want a Seiko to compare movements.

granted this has the plongeur hands - but its still less than $250 with the work - I cant imagine anything better for the price - and for the lume there is nothing better - including the tritium watches - this glows ALL night like a flashlight.

THE WATCH...DOXA


Yes, I have and am currently wearing a 1968 US Divers logo Orange faced Doxa sub

Or you could purchase a 25$ watch built in this century and still have all the required information on your wrist.

Books have a poor record of longevity underwater.

I will be happy to post a picture of the SEIKO monster lume in case anyone has any doubts....

I would love to see a lume shot of the monster.

That is a beautiful black Monster. I wear mine on an orange NATO band similar to that one when diving also. Nice watch you have there!

The DOXA is made in this century. DOXA is part of a large Swiss watch consortium that was formed decades ago to fight of cheap Asian brands. DOXA still makes watches and is one of the older Swiss companies. The consortium shares manufacturing and design and most use the Swiss made ETA movements which are highly regarded.

The Monster lume is so bright it actually casts a shadow on my arm. It is a great dive watch for the money.

Love my Ti Aqualand Duplex. Also have a Luminox Navy Seals and a Marathon T-SAR Tritium Diver that I've used on occassion. Getting the latter serviced has proven to be difficult, so it's mostly for dress now.
