I just made a post yesterday about the Momentum Eclipse. It's basically this watch but solar and in black. I am liking it more than the SeaQuartz 30 (I have both)
Have you looked into Skurfa watches? Made by a commercial saturation diver out of the UK. Quartz, steel or Ti, 500m wr, sapphire, very legible, under $300 even for the Ti version. They come with a rubber strap but you can get a bracelet for it for under $100. I think I paid around $350 for titanium watch with bracelet. It’s the best hardcore diver you can get for that price IMO.
I have the Sea Quartz 30, and can recommend it without reservation.

The middle links (polished) on the SeaQuartz jubilee and the bezel look chrome plated to me for some reason (they might actually be) and it personally annoyed me. The Eclipse doesn't have that problem and another plus is that it's solar.
I think you can chuck it up to personal preference.

I think for me the polished sections are a plus for me making it a little less tooly as I often wear divers with business casual clothes

But if they are plated that’s not ideal
I have the sea quartz 30 and like it a lot but I've only worn it on a rubber strap. Otherwise, the seiko prospex solar quartz divers are great (SNE series) and after market bracelets (e.g. jubilee from strapcode) for that series of watch are really nice looking.
Check out Delma. They do Quartz versions on most of their automatics

Same here, love my Momentum Sea Q 30.
