What's your intended use?
Does the difference in water resistance matter for you? Do you prefer a GMT bezel, or a timing bezel, for how you'll use it most?
They have the same movement. But the Zulu is regulated for COSC. Is that important?
I have the Zulu, and love it. But if I was buying now, I'd probably buy the diver.

The one on the left, please.
I like the Zulu time because I have too many divers already.
The dream right there

Difference in water resistance not really important for me, I love both GMT and Timing bezels. For usage I know I'd use both heavily 😂
I am just about to put my Zulu up for sale. Too big and busy (I have no use for the GMT function). I LOVE the clasp and micro-adjust on the leather strap.
One has a beautifully designed dial where everything contributes to a harmonious whole, the other is a Hydroconquest GMT.
Have you tried them on? I would probably base my decision on which bracelet was the best and how they fit on wrist.
Not an owner but the one on the left
I don't own either, but am a big fan of Zulu's design. Very nicely balanced.
Left. It's a bit more versatile and if it has decent water resistance I'd get it. Plus GMT screams bonus.
I think a GMT on a pilot watch makes more sense and offers more versatility than on a diver. So Zulu over Hydro in this comparison - but that is just how I view these two head to head. It's subjective.
I am leaning towards the Hydroconqest because I like the dial color and the look of the bracelet. The Zulu time has a better finishing and it is Cosc Certified, which to me doesn’t matter much.
My preference is the Hydroconquest GMT mostly due to the new on the fly adjustment clasp
Hydroconquest
I don’t own either, but what I wouldn’t give for the one on the left…
I would choose the Zulu time over the Hydroconcquest any day.
