• Thanks all the for suggestions. Specifically 300 because I read somewhere that 200m was ok for shallow diving (I'm not a diver) but 'proper' dive watches were 300m. Maybe this is rubbish though. It's a bday/finishing PhD present for my gf. She actualluy dives, so I figured 300 would be better.

  • she'll never be heartbroken by the numbers

  • Normally the numbers from any proper brand (ie, not Ali Express) are pretty trustworthy.
    200m is normally considered “proper” diver, there’s lots around. Will cope with whatever diving or swimming you’re going to do (so, probably, will 50 or 100m but you won’t get a screw down crown)

    300m is up into the level of professional deep diving. They’re really a tool more than a watch.
