I've been looking at a few diver style watches and keep coming back to these two. My first thought was a cheaper style turtle (SRPK01K). I could use for holidays/casual where I'd be possibly reluctant to take the Speedy. Also to have a G-Shock style mechanical watch.
Saw some of the new MM300 (SLA079(B) / SLA077(W)) and the finishing / design on these was really nice. But they were also AUD$4,500 as opposed to the SRPK01K (AUD$995).

Then I saw the Doxa Sub's which were both cheaper...

Opinions of Seiko options (MM300, King Turtle, Padi) v Doxa Sub (300 or 300T)

Tied on some Doxa Sub's on the weekend. I think I prefer the 300 and the 250T (unfortunately the two more expensive options). The 300 has the retro chic and is both large and small (if that makes any sense) but the dial is smaller due to the nice curved crystal, the 250T has the GMT and dial is maybe visibly bigger than the 300.

The 300T bracelet end links just didn't articulate as well as I'd like, and the 200T might be a little too small, but didn't look bad.

Thoughts from the group...

Finally got to try on Doxa Sub's - how to decide?
