Casio being in the garbage list shows that that video isn't worth watching.

They end up in the top tier......that screen capture is deliberately misleading. Orient and Casio come out on top.

@MPDTT started watching some the watch club stuff... apologies if you have posted but which watches do you have in your rotation (Im picking up the lingo!)

Just got a Casio Ediface off the back of the review on there 👍

No problem @Farrington. I have currently got 4 in rotation - 2 divers, 1 GMT and 1 dress watch

1. Christopher Ward Sealander c63 GMT, in white

2. Orient Star Retrograde DE00001W

3. Orient Kamasu, in green

4. Tissot Seastar 1000 Powermatic 80, in black

1 cost £800, 2 and 3 about £200 each, 4 was about £500.

1 came direct from Christopher Ward, 2 and 3 came from Creationwatches, 4 came from Jomashop

Cheers @MPDTT

I'm after a divers watch, 200-300 notes. What would you recommend?

Orient Kamasu, without a doubt.

Start with this review, but there are loads more on Youtube. Sapphire crystal, in house movement, £200

The black one is currently reduced on Amazon to £178. The red one is £190.

BUT....if you can stretch, and want a Swiss watch, I'd definitely fork our a bit more and go for the Tissot Seastar. It's my favourite watch in my collection and is currently 30% off at Jomashop (grey market) - it's imported, but yours for £365 plus import duty. That watch retails in the UK for £645.

Cheers again 👍

Definitely considering the Kamasu, not sure green or red though

Assuming you've heard of field watches, I'm catching the watch bug so also in the market for one as well as a dress watch!

When I think of a field watch, I think of the Hamilton Khaki Field watch. Swiss made, Jomashop have loads, like this: https://www.jomashop.com/hamilton-watch-h68201993.html. At the cheaper end, some of the Seiko 5's will do the job, if you don't mind that the movement isn't hackable - Amazon sell the SNK809K2 for £120.
