Me probably.
Mine is bronze with titanium back and has ETA movement. Can't really comment on the brass Seiko versions.
Obviously I'd like to believe that 1/4 price means 1/4 quality but we all know that's not how watches work. There's a good chance that the brass Seiko ones are every bit as good as mine.
One thing for sure is brass doesn't patina up as nicely as marine bronze.
Who here recently posted a shot of their Helson diver?
I'm starting to consider the 42mm brass shark diver. It states in the site that it uses a Seiko movement which is fine. How do they hold up? Decent time keeping? The watch would be in the ocean on a weekly basis. My current citizen diver just ain't doing it for me.
The Helson seems to be great value at $349 us
