For some reason I really like the look and feel of dive watches..and I live in the middle of nowhere..no ocean in site. What is your favorite dive watch? I needed to edit this post.. This isnt my most worn dive watch..that would be my Tudor Pelagos..

I purchased my first 'real' watch back in 1974 it is a Rolex DateJust in gold and stainless. I still own that watch but I really got the watch bug about ten years ago .Fun Hobby Update..We discovered...

My favourite is also the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, but since I'm not rich, the GSAR is my pick.
You certainly dont have to be rich. I think I only paid a little over 8k USD for this one a few years ago..I an not familiar with GSAR but it is a nice looking piece. Enjoy
My Seiko LX SNR045 is easily my most worn diver these days. It's a chunky watch and that can make wearing it with long sleeves a bit of a pain, but for something I enjoy wearing so much I'm willing to make it work. It does wear well despite its size.

I think it's safe to argue that being able to spend $8K USD ($11K CAD) on a watch is verging on "rich".
My favourite diver is my Clemence Photic.
My favourite dive watch,yes it's big and heavy but that doesn't matter ,only problem you cannot wear it when you have heavy coats on
It’s like picking a favourite child… which one do I get rid of?

I certainly meant no disrespect to anyone. I'm rather frugal in life other than my cars and watches. I save for them.
My most favorite is blancpain fifty fathoms bathyscaphe. Although I hate the date window. But I love the design.
But I'm not willing to pay 10K.
So the Tissot Seastar 1000 is in my opinion the vest vallue for money alternative.
But I do also love the Montblanc Iced Sea.
We all have limits on what we will spend for a watch. We sort of assign our own value LOL. That is the reason manufactures make homages (sp?) Now that Im retired I am much less likely to spend over 10k for a watch when I dont have any income coming in..Im actually selling things off slowly LOL

Both are nice. If you have to ditch one, ditch the Submariner -- the Blancpain is a better watch.

I'm not rich...just financially irresponsible ...LOL
Super #divewatch I wanted this but I share a collection with a twin brother. We went for the flyback chrono.
