I'm kind of pleased with my Oris(300m model) even I find the bezel to be thin/flat in thickness and kind of sharp on fingers: I like more massives bezels with a good grip. The watch is good looking and it's the price who make them interesant


I never owned any Doxa but I saw somes very close...I was first surprised by the light weight.
A Danish guy had one PVD Sharkhunter on the job and his bezel was f'cked. He never abused the watch but the click didn't exist any more and the bezel was turning loose both ways.
That didn't put me in trust with the watch, specialy with the high price practiced on Doxa.
The all construction seems to be light to me: But you should notice that my very first diver was the DS3(new version) from Certina who's kind of "little bunker" built.
I paid the Certina 800 buks in a Norwegian shop 5 years ago and for a 2824 eta and 1000m proof watch, it's a good deal.
But I would personaly never put 2000 buks in a watch with a 2824 eta even it hold it's value: The Doxa case never convinced me of beeing a "bomb-proof" stuff anyway.

I have owned both the 800Ti and the TT1 Divers Date.  Hands down Doxa.  I recently sold my Oris as I wasn't wearing it as much as my others.  I have used the glow from my Doxa to guide myself into a dark bedroom after late night sports.  The tubes are awesome.
