Could this be the best value for money vintage reissue?

Love the size 👍 Looks great. Would be better without the date IMO.

Thanks man! Yeah I kind of agree with you on that one

I’ve found that a 36mm without a bezel wears perfectly on my 6.25” wrist. The addition of a bezel on a 36mm watch makes it wear a little too small fully my taste. The Divers 65 is always on my radar though.

Looks good!

Nup.

All the Certina re-issues are seriously good for the money.

I reckon Oris are over priced (at retail). Fine watches, great bracelets and great design - good on wrist too but pricey for what they are - at least in my opinion.

Great point mate, will have to check out certina

Definitely worth it - the re-issues are a good place to start.

The p/matic 80 has its flaws - no doubt, but there's an anti-mag Nivachron spring in the ones Certina use and the finishing and (in particular) the dial furniture is outstanding.

I only paid a little over $500 for mine (grey market and ~ 5yrs ago) with an OEM mesh and nato so the value was outstanding.

I tried it on once, it wears a touch on the small side for me but thought it looked really cool. I'd want to try it on a nato. I find 36mm to be a great size in general though.

Big fan of the powermatic 80 movement - I've owned a PRX, Hamilton Khaki Auto 38mm and Mido Ocean Star and all have been outstanding

It’s a great watch - possibly shading on the small size for me.

I love my 39mm especially the taper on the bracelet and the subtle gold touches (rather than full on bling). And I do prefer the colour matched date at the 6 position.

Mine’s a keeper for sure.

Yeah, my experience has been similar and five + years on the DS PH200-m is running well with single fingers of deviation. Doubt I'd bother servicing it though, but I'm attached to the watch so I'd definitely replace the movement.

Obviously deeply personal, but I'd rather have my Seiko MM200 GMT for less money 😅 (if you consider it a vintage re-issue, although it's more of a modern take).

Gorgeous! If was to get another one it would be the 40mm honeycomb one
