Not quite a dive watch though based on one and not Ti. Oh and a pain to find... but apart from that...
How about an Omega Great White? It's certainly on my list of watches I'd like.
Hi all, i'm in a bit of a quandry.... I really think my collection is complete. By no means as vast or expensive as some but nothing really wows me any more (apart from the blue Nomos which I have ordered).
Looking at my keepers i'm a diver and like divers. My true one keeper is the 11660 SD4K. I also have an LV which I rarely wear but really love. I have Sinn's, Tag's, Seiko's and Gshocks but looking at my humble lot They're (apart from a Blue Pelagos) all black faces. Even the GShocks are negative displays.....
Recently i bought a couple of Titanium pieces. The superb Omega Skywalker X-33 and the equally brilliant Tudor Pelagos blue. The light weight of these two is exceptional. I'm so impressed I think I need a new watch. What i'd really like is A dive watch with a white face and (but not exclusively Ti) on a bracelet and up to say 4K?
Choices seem to be limited. Maybe IWC or Seamaster. No interest whatsoever in Vintage or Panerai, just not me.
Any advice or ideas would be gratefully appreciated. If I get 20 ideas i'll chuck £20 in the fundraiser as a thanks to TZ'ers

Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
Another white dial titanium diver:
Complete no brainer as you are a diver, it has to be a Ploprof. Couple of nice ones here, although i'd chuck it straight on an orange Isofrane.

I didn't even know they did a white Ploprof. ..,..That's lovely and definitely one for the list. Thanks

Bit limited on white dial offerings, but that is very nice, or how about a Heldon White Beard

Perrelet Seacraft. Take your pick of white, blue or black dials. Not Ti though. These were all the rage on WUS a few years ago. I had one for a while. Should have kept it.
Linde Werdelin Spidolite DLC £3,857
Ball Watch Engineer Hydrocarbon Mad Cow £1,145
Oris Divers Titanium 44mm £965
Chopard LUC Pro One £3,859 – if you can do steel
Girard Perregaux Sea Hawk II £2,374 – unfortunately, no white dial version in Titanium
Are not those two steel? However the 227.90.55.21.04.001 is titanium.
That I like...I presume you mean the Oris 01 733 7562 7159 mentioned by PJ S. There was a black bezel version that I think was steel, but I may be wrong.

Love those Stowas.
Not white, but a lovely look.
Thanks for all the advice. Some great ideas there. I'd prefer what I deem to be a mainstream brand but I actually like the format of the CHr WaRd :D but white hand and a white dial? That could have looked great. I have an Oris tt albeit not in white so that's out.
Whilst searching I think that Ti and white is narrowing my market somewhat. Steel is okay. Currently looking at White Aqua Terra, Rolex Polar Explorer, Orient Sat diver or maybe something from Breitling?
Any more ideas? or just as importantly, reasons not to buy my options?
Thanks for your help!
If you are thinking about a steel diver, a white dial Helson Sharkmaster 600 or 1000 is worth considering if you can find one.
Have a look at oceanictime.blogspot.com
I bet you can find more than 20 white divers listed on there.
