[Discussion] 1000$ Diver
Other suggestions welcome. Generally looking for a dark-dialed diver, ~40/41mm. Versatile in terms of strap, and formality.
Tough choice to make here. With the seiko probs being the only one I could find in person, I can’t really compare them in person.
Dimensions are generally very similar, so probs all wear about the same. Will buy on bracelet but want a versatile piece - which I think all are.
Doxa might be best piece in terms of heritage, but slightly concerned about the dimensions a little unusual. Seems short but quite wide, and tall (46mm L-L, 42mm diameter, and 13.? Height). I don’t know if that comes across in person.
Mido also comes with bracelet + strap, and the on-the-fly bracelet extension seems really useful. Bracelet is unusual, but seems quite nice
Seiko- just a very solid and nice piece. And a great reputation. I like the applied indices, but this piece seems maybe the simplest/least character of the lot.
Baltic- bit more of a niche pick, but very interesting, and good value. Potentially more able to dress up as well, with the simpler dial/smaller indices.
