    Hello all,

    I am current considering adding a dive watch to my collection and was curious as to folks take on the best dive watch option for a smaller wrist. I had been leaning towards the Tudor Pelagos, but it was just too big and chunky for my wrist (currently wear a couple vintage seamasters), so now was considering the Tudor Black Bay Or Bremont s300/301, but was curious if folks had an opinion here or other suggestions.

    Thanks

    lets see... old make with real history or recent company with much touted fake history.....

    buy the Tudor.

    Oris and Longines heritage divers are smaller I think.

    Do Omega still offer the Seamaster 300M in 36mm? If so, I’d go with that. Or if an external bezel isn’t important, you could think about the Tudor Black Bay 36. And if actual water resistance isn’t necessarily an issue, there are plenty of 36mm vintage supercompressor options

    What about Tudor vs a 40mm Oris diver sixty five, which isn’t quite as thick and chunky as the Tudor.

    Good shout . They do but they reference it as a lady’s watch . IMO nothing wrong with it as a small quality watch. Only real difference is the marker to the right of the date . Everything else looks and feels the same including the braclet . So gets my vote to
