Is the bezel supposed to lock? It'll turn one way, but not the other just so that you don't run out of air.

I'll go for this one. I like the style and I think it will fit on my fashion.

Just ordered one of these, wanted one for a while, but you need a chunky wrist to carry it off
That Braun watch is lovely. Shame it doesn't have a metal strap (I don't like fabric/leather straps as they always seem to fall apart or just smell..)
Sorry crown, not bezel, wrong terminology
Damn you STW! Just ordered a Seiko 5 from Creation.
Anyone know of a good place to get a leather strap for it?
must...not...buy...another...watch!
I do like watches but don't like to spend daft money on them. The ones I wear the most are a MR G titanium G Shock that is +15 years old, a titanium Polar, a titanium Seiko Samurai, a titanium..... do you see a pattern forming 😀
I do have a couple of Seiko Monsters, a couple more G-Shocks, a Toy Watch, a couple of Tags and a few more bits and pieces. A few of them I've bought second hand (pardon the pun) but they were all in 'as new condition. I think I will have a rationalisation at some point and buy some nice understated 'bling' but atm I like having options 😀
I like the 5 Diver above though, very nice. Simple, purposeful and practical.
Ordered from Creation Watches Wednesday night. Watch just arrived at work, 36 hours later, from Singapore. Excellent!
Drat, I am now considering a new watch. I sold my seamaster as I didn't get enough use out of it (worrying about scratching it etc).
By the look of it, you can get something really nice for £150-200 2nd hand.
Anyone know any good watch sites that specialize in the cheaper and unusual brands?
I'd forgotten about timefactors; liking the backs of these:

What you want is the Tonka-tastic Nixon 51-30

For the love of God don't get a Nixon, bloody awful build quality! I have 2 with broken straps an the second had it's battery replaced this year and now has moisture behind the glass, but as the strap is shot I just can't be bothered to get it dealt with.
My next watch will be a Bell&Ross, it may just be a very long time till I get another watch!

Because it has
a helium escape valve which opens when the internal pressure is higher than the external pressure.
Which will be awesomely useful if it rains hard or you fall in a puddle
2 years into my Nixon and it hasn't missed a beat. Strap is ripped a little though, but 2 years of muddy biking hasn't caused it much issue, including one particular big off that resulted in a small dent in the bezel.
