Anyone have a Doxa 600T and can comment on how it wears for you. I appreciate this is highly subjective. I quite like these and read this review with interest as it clearly didn’t wear well for the reviewer.

Yes, but it took a while to get used to. The lugs sit high relative to the caseback, which feels quite odd.Originally Posted by matt74
I originally had the T&T LE version, but didn't like the rubber strap, so returned it and ordered the standard bracelet version. I wore it around the house for a couple of days before deciding to keep it.
Thanks for the info. None of my watches have a similar chunky case back design so one to go and try first I think.
Can always buy from Jura and take advantage of their returns policy

LOL I presume?
Yes I have a Doxa 600T but I’m glad I clicked on your link 1st as it’s one of the earlier versions of the Doxa Sub 600T and looks nothing like the one in your link.

I really like these but it’s not the first time I’ve heard that they don’t wear well.
I also have a bony 7 inch wrist so sadly, I don’t think it’s for me.
If they released a similar model with a slimmer case (400T?), I might jump on it!
I have to say I like the look of these but that article has killed it for me. The case back and lug positions just looks weird and uncomfortable to me!
Pretty much where I’ve ended up. I’d likely want to put something like this on a rubber nato but think that would make it worse. May still hunt down somewhere to try one but had near enough decided to buy until I read that article. Something for the back burner.
I recently purchased the 600t aquamarine with ceramic bezel. The case back does make the watch sit high on the wrist but not so much as to make it an issue. I only have a 6.75” wrist but it’s quite flat so I’ve found the watch to be very comfortable. The chunky bracelet does a great job of stopping the watch head flopping around.

Thanks for the post, was about to ask you how it wore on the Doxa thread but you beat me too it here. Aquamarine with the black bezel would be my choice too, think it looks great. I’m still very tempted to get one and give it a go.
Goldsmiths at the Trafford Centre have quite a selection if you are anywhere near? Failing that, I’m sure you’re local branch would get some in to try.
I just reviewed one for my youtube channel here is the link https://youtu.be/Ym2lQ1x5-jM
The watch was ok but I wouldnt go for it on the bracelet as it felt very cheap the silicone strap is better

Really enjoyed your review, thanks.
I think you summed it up perfectly. For the money, it’s a great looking, purpose built dive watch. Sure, the bracelet could be better quality but it’s really comfortable and does its job admirably.
