sorted byBut sadly the novelty wore off quite quickly for me after a couple of months, never really worked out why, as you said something just never felt quite right, maybe I'm more concerned about a brand/heritage than I once thought...
There is no question though that the materials used on these watches for the price are staggering, it's the quality control and finishing at the lower end you'll notice the most compared to the likes of San Martin.
Luckily you get free returns on most items from AE these days so if you do want to give it a go like I did there's no risk.
Alternatively, you could sell it on eBay, they tend to sell quite well so you shouldn't lose too much money.
In the end, i settled for an older Seiko 5 from 2016 which I spotted in a charity shop for £60, I cleaned and polished it up and couldn't be happier.
Yes the spec is nowhere near these Chinese watches, but it just feels right to wear and fits my needs perfectly, the only feature I miss is the sapphire glass, the hardlex crystal is incredibly easy to scratch.
Honestly though, give one a try you may love it there is no denying they are gorgeous watches!
I'd still love to try a San Martin.... (edited)
but just picked up the Seestern 300T adventurine dial for £90
Edit, back on topic.. this SD is a great watch for the money

Edit: also thanks for sharing your Steeldive photos! (edited)
So my Seikos will remain the watches for best and I've ordered one of these for the other times. Fakes are sad but nothing wrong with an honest clone.
Will find out if it's worth it.
Came out to $116 with tax for both watches.
Used fee free credit card and its worked out to be £92 for both watches - great price!!
Cheers OP for this deal, Heat added!
Got it as a beater for when I wouldn't wear one of my others bit ironically it looks too good to risk spoiling it
Cheers hadn't looked at 'cheap' watches for a long time.

Its alot more expensive because it has a Sellita SW200 Swiss made movement.
Wonder if there is a no date version. Shame it has a pressed clasp but its not a deal breaker for me at this price. (edited)
It's all preference but I think most tend to prefer the oyster strap with diver watches as diving is somewhat of a rugged activity and the design of the watch reflects that.
But just get whatever you think looks nicer. Many also prefer to use a NATO strap for submariners. I think the black and grey James Bond NATO strap looks great with the black on black Steeldive here.

Did wonder if a soldering iron might be better so thanks for the heads up as it's not really my thing despite being truer to the Sub.
