Frustrating Doxa CS experience: am I the crazy one?
I just got a Sub 300, LNIB, from a fellow WUSer. I love it. I don’t like the clasp on the Sub 300. I also have the Army, 300T, and 200T, all of which have the “ratcheting diver clasp.” I MUCH MUCH prefer the ratcheting clasp over the stamped, unadjustable clasp on the 300.
Continue readingSo I tried to buy a 300T bracelet on the Doxa website. It’s not available for purchase. I wrote an email to Doxa CS asking if I could buy an Army or 300T bracelet to put on my 300. They responded with some gobbledy-****…
Doxa Sub v some Seiko alternatives
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…
Newer 300 models’ lumed hour markers appear different
Hi,
I’ve noticed that a couple of 2025 Sub300 Searamblers for sale here have different lume. The hour markers’ lume used to have a greenish hue to them, but the couple of 2025 purchased ones for sale here have stark white. Anyone know of a mixture c…
Continue readingFinally got to try on Doxa Sub’s – how to decide?
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.
Continue readingThe 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…

Doxa Customer Service
Like many I have, from time to time, been critical of Doxa: the reissue of the Sub 300 line, the weird collection of date wheels in service and so on.
These issues led to me selling my Sub 300 professional and Searambler 50th Anniversary models back in…
Mission 31 bezel rattle after service
Hello, I hope some mission 31 owners can chime in.
I just got my mission 31 back from Doxa for a full service. They replaced the bezel spring and now the bezel rattles when tapped. It’s loud enough that I noticed this just walking around with the watc…
