That Rotary is absolutely gorgeous. Love it.
I love these 3 and they so different looks size and price.
To be honest the price or rarity or make has no standing on my decision.
Rotary Aquaplunge because it's so easy to wear and never gets in the way.
The dial is perfect and it's only 36mm.
Rolex 5513 I just feel like Steve McQueen well apart from the beer gut and lack of sex appeal.
it is my iconic watch but I get worried wearing it especially on Holiday.
ohhh it looks mint on a nato!
My newest the baby tuna, poor mans Tuna, tuna splat etc.
It's the tuna that fits me perfectly, it's fun, its quality especially after fitting a yobokies shroud the plastic one cheapends it.
This is now my official holiday watch.
can you guys post your favourites and why.

Yep the Rotary is the real winner there, love that model!
All those work for me - hitherto unfamiliar with the Rotary
Likewise on the tuna ...
however, I couldn't help but feel a domed crystal would improve it... so I had mine modded ...
The domed crystal makes it feel more like a "real" Tuna.
It's the watch Seiko should have made (IMHO).
Makes an ideal beater - grab & go quartz convenience ...
- & solar powered too - so fewer battery/capacitor changes (hopefully).
...my go to holiday watch too.

Three excellent watches. The Rotary holds it’s own against the Rolex.
Like the Tina too. Agree that the domed crystal adds that little bit extra.
Do those Tunas seconds hands hit the markers? Thanks

Thank you Zelig, I've always been tempted by one, especially with the metal shroud mod.

That Rotary just makes what has happened to the brand in recent times all the more sickening.
Thank you for the info Zelig I’ve contacted Paul.
I’ve just purchased a dark blue isofrane strap too, I can’t wait to get it all ready for my Jollies.
I took my 5513 away last year I was terrified wearing it.
it’s survived 38 year with original Lume and ghost bezel I think I’m pushing it too far...
The Tuna solar is going to be my tough fun jollies watch..
That Rotary is gorgeous, what an absolute cracker.

Can't disagree with the PADI Tuna. One of my favorites too.

Nice pick in the Rotary!

‘’Regardless of cost.’’ Really?
You have three stunning divers!
What no PRS2 Dreadnought? Kicks sand in the face of that Seiko
