Avoid them ! They sent me the strap, but it wasn't what i ordered and i cannot get a reply from them after 7 emails and 2weeks ! Simply put they've took my money and run ! Christ its only 67 dollars and my new Seiko MM 600 SD is very lonely ... ordered the same strap again today from a reputable UK dealer and its a bargain for £20 ... $38, brand new chronissimo ! Cheers, Carl Fredawatchstraps………. Avoid them ! They sent me the strap, but it wasn’t what i ordered and i cannot get a reply from them after 7 emails and 2weeks !

Both are part of the ‘Prospex’ line of watches, Seiko’s upscale diver line that’s only sold and marketed in Japan.

The Orient and Omega both do the job, or close to it. There’s also the approach of a dive watch with a GMT hand, which provides 1,3 and part of 2. However, you have to keep in mind that this is really not necessary. [...] [...] As noted in my dive watch review, the Seiko fulfills #3, but that’s about it.
