Sadly this is another “which watch” thread. I’m lacking inspiration and I could do with a little assistance when it comes to a replacement for my trusty old Seiko Monster which is mainly used for riding my scooter around, going to the beach, and swimming - what we might call a beater - and I’m calling on the forum wisdom to make some recommendations.
I love the Monster, but these days I simply find it much too big (blame that on my Datejust daily wearer) and I really do fancy something a little smaller, but let’s start with things I like about the Monster;
Individuality. It’s not a homage watch in any way shape or form.
Lume. I’ll say no more about the lume.
Bracelet- lovely, with micro adjust and extension (not that I’ve ever used it mind you it sits on a NATO).
Scew down crown and good water resistance.
Day and date function is a nice bonus.
And here’s the criteria for the replacement:
Must be about the same price give or take) as a used Monster for when I decide to move mine on.
36-38mm diver, and as slender as possible
No homages.
Auto movement.
Must have a date function.
Will probably be worn on a nato, but a decent bracelet would be a bonus.
And so, over to you. I’m open to any suggestions from any brands. Thanks in advance!

Yep - this was my first thought as well, and I started a thread in this very watch a little while back. I just think it may be time to broaden my horizons and see what is out there beyond the obvious.Originally Posted by ktmog6uk

How about the citizen pro master diver? It’s a great little watch and you can pick them up for around the £200 mark
