Which small diver under $600?

I have the Seiko Solar diver now. However, I'm not sure I'm completely happy with it. I think I'm drawn to automatic movements and vintage inspired designs more, but the blue color looks great and the small size is perfect. Should I keep the Seiko Solar? Or sell it for a Lorier or Steinhart?

Technically the Lorier model you picked isn’t a diver. But they do make fantastic pieces.

Steinhart makes nice watches, albeit more direct homages.

Personally, I say keep the Seiko. It’s a true ISO-rated dive watch. Maybe buy a new bracelet from Uncle Seiko to breath some new life in it?

Thanks for your suggestion. I’ll look into the aftermarket bracelets. I might just need to refresh it a bit, not a fan of the original bracelet and that might be the issue. Thanks,

Uncle straps or strapcode should have good bracelets that would fit that watch.

Long Island watches produces two bracelets for their model. Check them out.
