Would definitely consider the Stowa Seatime or Prodiver. Here's a pic of my former Carbon Seatime.

Theres a benarus 1KM for sale on WUS for like 700ish$ and no ones biting. imo thats the best deal atm for a slightly used watch. Fricker probably charges them more to built it. :mrgreen:

Just got my Orient Saturation diver in, and IMO it feels more solid and higher end fit and finish than my Oris, Enzo, Glycine, Fortis, marahton, and others. One just sold for $760 i think here. Plus it had a power reserve and a ratcheting bracelet clasp (like Ploprod, DSSD, and SM300)

IMO, the best watch for this price (used). If you dont mind not hacking or handwinding.

Congrats Polaco on the Orient 300.

I agree it is a serious contendah. I also like a JSAR auto-conversion mod w/bracelet at this price point. One of the new 2000m's is up there too.

Tried (and mostly failed) to capture the applied enamel on the hands set of my OS300

Hi,

Go with the DWATCH. A little high but great watch, built like a tank and totally customizable. I'm sure Alon will work with you.

Thanks Guys,

It's the first one I've seen with the new Arabic dial. Alon gave me some suggestions about the combo and I'm glad I listened to him. He's great to work with. Bye the way the the watch is within 2 seconds after 4 days.

Regards,

Alex

You can probably find a Muhle glashutte Rasmus or Alphatime Sawfish preowned in that range...

No offense to anyone here or any particular option, but some of the "custom" DWATCH designs
posted have not thrilled me...


then there's the one Alex posted and it's got me! :thumbsup:
