Any thoughts on the new Seiko Titanium diver - SBDJ013??

Recommended Posts

Greetings all,

I am currently torn between the Stainless steel Sumo SBDC031 or the much more expensive Titanium Shogun SBDC029...

 

However, while browsing, I came across a new Prospex mid-ranged Seiko diver - model SBDJ013.

 

OK this is solar powered, but a very nice looking watch with a price a little bit more than the Sumo and it is finished in Titanium dia-shield like the Shogun (so it should be nice and light?).

 

I'm not too fussed on the movement (ie automatic vs Solar quartz) and so the SBDJ013 looks like a much cheaper option than the Shogun.

 

But I can't find any reviews or comments on this new watch anywhere??

I like that a lot - chunky but not too big it's going to be a PITA to wear.

 

 

I do wish they'd use more Auto movements, though - I understand Solar / Kinetic is probably better for long term longevity, but autos are just cooler.
