    £350 burning a hole!

    I've got £350 in my PayPal account which is buring a hole, I'm after another diver but not sure what to buy. I've done the Seiko Samurai, I've got an SKX007, had Orient Mako's, don't really like Turtles, had Scurfa's and a few Citizen divers. Needs to be 42mm or above, not really bothered but bracelet would be a bonus......any ideas you lot? I need some inspiration😁

    £350 burning a hole in your pocket on valentine's Day? Don't think it's a watch it'll go on...

    When you've been married as long as I have and have 2 kids Valentine's day goes out the window. My wife tells me not to waste money on her on this day so it might as well go on a watch😁

    Bulova Lunar pilot, lovely watch, similar styling to a speedmaster

    Has a great space story
    It's a super high frequency quartz movement, accurate to around 10 seconds a year (yes a year)

    Only problem is the lug to lug is rather large.. think it's about 52mm, but it does wear smaller than you'd think, Fits my 7.25 inch wrist.. or atleast I think so will upload picture if I ever figure out how to size my pictures.

    Glycine combat sub? (If you're OK with the Invicta connection)


    Cheers DJ

    Pre-owned CWC RN Diver, should be able to get a nice one for 350. Think they're 41mm though from memory, not got mine on me to check.

    Have you thought about a Citizen Pro-Diver? Some nice models out there.

    I had a Scurfa recently but the color was not for me.

    Its a Seiko killer that brand, insane quality for the price.

    Thanks for all the replies, put a wanted out for an Obris Morgan Infinity as I've been after one for ages but not really expecting anything. Some good suggestions to take a look at👍

    Something Steinhart maybe a vintage red or OVM? Great value for money proposition.

    As mentioned the Bulova lunar pilot is really well built and finished. The stepped/layered 3D dial is something to be admired. Although it is long on the lug to lug and the reason is sold mine.


    The Seiko solar PADI tuna in either blue or pepsi is available somewhere for £209 at the minute. That's great value with change for a valentine gift ha

    Thanks mate, also had a PADI Tuna and sold it on. Forgot all about Steinhart, had an Ocean Black and a GMT but a Vintage Red is a good shout👍

    Those Yema watches would be worth a look.

    I've been tempted by them now several times.
