So I'm planning on buying a new diver here within the next month and i was just wondering which one most of you would chose of the bunch? No matter what I'm going to choose the one i like the most regardless of the opinions , but I was just curious which one is favored the most, thanks guys! Seiko Sumo (blue) my #1 pick as of now (i have a obsession with seiko divers)  Helson Shark Diver (ETA)  Deep Blue Master 2000 Day/Date Diver Boschtett Cave Dweller (ETA)  As you can see they are all in the $500-$700 range, so if anyone has any more suggestions feel free to post them , thanks again!

For Helson, I would have go for the Sharkmaster... If not, the Sumo would be my choice: The 6R15 movement is a bad'ss and the Sumo is a 100% inhouse Seiko Japan.

I'd go with the Sumo also. I used to own one, and it was my favorite watch by far. Seiko did a really good job with the blue dial. The only reason I sold mine was to help fund a Doxa 1000T caribbean. My wife bought the Doxa for my birthday, but she wasn't willing to pay THAT much for a birthday present. If you go with the Sumo and want to put it on a rubber strap, I highly recommend that you buy the sawtooth rubber strap. It looks killer on the Sumo.

I'd go Seiko Sumo, SBDC003...the blue one. But you might want to also smell out the Seiko Sumo in black, SBDC001. I used to think blue was the top color choice until I got my black one. The Sumo looks bigger in black than in blue. With 20mm lugs, easy to find a vintage rubber waffle strap that will fit it. Go Sumo!

Sumo, for sure. The four watches you mentioned seem to fall into two different size categories. The Sumo's numbers suggest it's pretty big, but it wears small for it's size -- it sits quite low and is extraordinarily comfortable. The others are, to my eye, MUCH bigger on the wrist based on all the photos I've seen.

Well it seems to be the Sumo is favored watch here, lol I do have the rubber Seiko strap that i got for my Sawtooth, but I'm sure i will leave sumo on the bracelet. I have my eye on a few other Seiko divers that I'm going to pick up over the winter (about 4-5 more) so i will be sure to post some pics when i get them, thanks again for the opinions, guys!
