    A titanium IWC Aquatimer 3536. Pure functionality at around half your budget, and much rarer and more interesting than the run-of-the-mill Rolex divers.

    Sinn U1 or U2 would be my vote. Plenty of change out of either and pretty much the definition of a 'tool' watch. I've got a 2254 which I love but if you have a Sub already then in my opinion a 2254 doesn't really make sense

    James ff on SC looks like an omen. Hope you bought it OP.

    A watch in its element…. Nice 👍🏼

    I’ll be taking my G shock diving in Thailand next week…. Would never trust myself with anything more expensive!!!

    I've always taken my Sinn U2. Have used everything at some point bu theU2 is at home in the water.

    Was going to suggest a sub but seeing as you already have one then what about a Oris divers 65?

    It’s a really nice and well made divers watch, with a Discount will just be over £1k

    No matter how I cut it I don't get how you can look for a watch based on price. I get there is a budget to stay within, but surely you are interested in aspects of the watch itself more than it's specific price (up to your limit).

    An Eberhard diver- a new one
    About 2k euros for amazing quality
    Be different
    Or just buy a submariner and be done with it

    Been looking at those myself, always like to be different from the herd.

    Those do look rather nice. I think my OCD would struggle with the angled 'Eberhard' on the face though

    Curiously enough I find that pleasantly quirky.
