I have a Seiko Hi-Beat Automatic 300 meter Pro diver 6159 7001. The watch is old but to me a beutifull time piece. I have never had it in the sea before but its previos owner (Ex navy diver) did some serious bottom time with it. The watch is more than 35 years old and is keeping better time than any I have ever seen. I have had it tested and they told me I can go to about 25meters with it as is but needs to service it for safety if going any deeper

I have a St Moritz as a beater, usually I dive with my Seiko Automatic or DOXA SharKhunter Automatic. N
I bought a St Moritz 200m on Ebay for $80... the timer ring fell off in the pool.
I then bought a Citizen 200m on Ebay for $100... flooded on a 110' wreck
Next I tried a Seiko 200m, Ebay again, for $140... fell off the TV in a hotel room onto tile floor and quit working..... That was all last year!
Of course, I think the Citizen and Seiko may have been knockoffs. They were supposed to be the $300 variety that each sells. That's what I get for Ebaying
Now I have a $30 Timex from Walmart 200m rated, and it has been the best of them all. It's been to 100' with me, Still works, never missed a beat.

Casio G-Shock. Although, half the time I just leave it on the boat.
I feel that a luxury class dive watch is really no more than a fashion statement, now that we all dive with computers or digital bottom timers. My Aladin Tec has time of day functions built in, so I can even make it to the boat on time without a watch.
It is a lot easier to concentrate on the dive if you don't have to be concerned about the loss, flooding or scratching of an expensive watch.
