DEEP BLUE Watches has a rather extensive inventory of diver’s models but if I had to choose one, it would be the Deep Star 1000.
The watch which is currently ON SALE from 499USD makes for a pretty enticing proposition.
Firstly DB has been specializing in diver’s watches longer than I care to remember.
But this little Deep Star 1000 has all the looks of something that you might expect coming from a brand like Aquadive but at a fraction of the price. 
Its 45mm Stainless steel case is based on a DB original design and is water-resistant to 1’000ft. or 330 meters. 
Power comes from a Swiss made Sellita Sw-200 automatic movement with Incabloc anti-shock protection and a power reserve of approx. 42hrs. 
As with any of DEEP BLUE’s diver’s models, special attention has been given to the watch’s illumination; which in this instance includes brightly glowing Swiss lume. 
Diver’s features: include a unidirectional rotational bezel with a ceramic inlay with luminous dive-time scale, a Helium Escape Valve (case side 9 o’clock), a Sapphire crystal and a screw-down case-back and crown. 
The case-back btw has a Sapphire crystal exhibition window showing the Sw-200 with its custom DB rotor.
Much of the Deep Star 1000’s charm comes from its enamel dial offered in an array of colors and with various index styles. Orange is SOLD OUT btw. 
In addition to the dial options there are also several strap and bracelet options to suit most tastes which include a vintage style, Milanese shark-mesh bracelet in Stainless steel. 
Thoughts? Built like a little Swiss powered tank and with plenty of retro appeal, this is a lot of watch for 499USD; it would make a fantastic daily beater.
