Does anybody have experience with this watch? I'm looking for a sharp looking, reliable, accurate watch that doesn't break the bank. I like the set and forget concept. It's only about $180 on Amazon. Wanted to hear some thoughts from you guys.

No personal experience but I'd imagine you won't have problems with it.   It's ISO certified as a dive watch.  Seiko is known for very good watches at a low price point.  Bracelet will likely be functional but nothing spectacular.

Might we worth a look as well.

I'm partial to automatics myself.  Not ISO certified but one hell of a watch for the price.  Applied markers and a framed day date window.  The blue version is very nice as well.  $40 more and you can get a blacked out "tacticool" looking version.

Thanks for the response. I have looked at the citizen and am kind of torn. It will more than likely be between the two, just not sure which.

I've owned several Seikos and none can compare to my Citizen. It runs about -.2 sec per day.

That clsp looks pretty damn good for a watch of that price point.  

My radio controlled eco drive chronograph definitely has a nice case and bracelet for the price.

The clasp has an adjustable extension, too.

Did that model come with that band? The citizens dive watches I've looked at all have a rubber band on it.

Had that watch for a little over 4 years now. It averages about 4-6sec fast per month. Pretty solid and durable.

I'm wearing one right now. Just picked it up a week or two ago. Decent watch, I did change the bracelet out for a rubber band and may go to a NATO in the future.

I have an SNE441 (solar Prospex diver) that I'm very happy with.  You won't be disappointed; the quality is far beyond the price, IMHO.
