Thank you very much! I've been looking for an alternative to the standard jubilee bracelet. Do you have the bracelet number or is it just called Seiko President? An eBay purchase?

Yes, an eBay purchase. A guy on another forum (AtlantaDave) linked me to the seller years ago.

Call me weird but I like the stock jubilee bracelet. It's super comfortable and I think looks great. You don't notice the hallow end links when wearing it. The fit and finish is excellent for a watch in the 3k price point let alone 200.

Without a doubt, for me it's the Diver One by Scurfa watches. I love the case size, the dial and hands design, even the fact that it's a quartz so that I can just pick it up and go (especially as it is usually worn only for swimming/beach activity and has a date which I don't have to set every time I want to use it). I also like the story behind its development and the fact that it's currently being used for professional diving activity by the founder. And at GBP124..it's just superb value for me. I have no association with the brand, just a big fan.

I could take the Benrus Type 1 Class A! Its pressure tested. But its got historical value so it stays home. The Rolexes stay dry in the hotel safe while we are out on/ under the water. 112f061fd112db58dfa6751ed8be56fe.jpg

Jesus...kangaroos look about as dangerous as a mouse compared to a saltwater croc!

I take people probably don't walk their dogs on the beach.

Beach...yard work..... doesn't matter. Any one of these, I think the most expensive one was still under $100 USD.
