I'm looking for a Decent Quartz diver for work
Hi all can anyone recommend a decent Quartz divers watch for my work, needs to be fairly robust as I work in construction something along the lines of a Seiko sbcm023 or does anyone know where I can buy a new one of those?
I wear a marathon tsar at the moment to work just fancied a change
Cheers Dan

Re: I'm looking for a Decent Quartz diver for work
The Elliot Brown and Scurfa are two good suggestions - my Diver One has become my everyday work watch (construction also) and although I don't have a Bloxworth I would favour the Scurfa for your purposes for the following reasons:
- The Diver One is smaller at 40mm so less likely to get a knock
- Scurfa has sapphire glass and ceramic bezel
-Scurfa is only £125 new so no great disaster if it comes to grief
- Scurfa has 10 year battery
And finally, the Bloxworth is way too beautiful to risk on a construction site!
Buy both and Wear the Bloxworth down the pub

Re: I'm looking for a Decent Quartz diver for work
If you want a more expensive/upscale quartz diver, I can recommend the Seiko Tuna. For your situation though, Scurfa seems a great fit.
Re: I'm looking for a Decent Quartz diver for work
You can't go wrong with Seiko really can you. If you google you will find a few suppliers that carry a bigger range than the high street. Citizen too, as suggested have great value divers.
Re: I'm looking for a Decent Quartz diver for work
Bulova do a large range of quartz divers. The UHF movements are pretty special.
They tend to be larger case sizes though.
