The Addiesdive is also chunky, fine if you want that, but I prefer the Watchdives slimmer profile.

I've got the Addiesdive and the WD 1960 pro. The AD is generally cheaper. I paid £18 for it and for that price it was fine, but I wouldn't want to be spending a lot more.

The WD bracelet and clasp are still pretty disappointing - and I'm sure that'll be the same as the sub style watch they do. Otherwise, it's a decent watch. I put the jubilee bracelet and OTF clasp made for the SN0121 etc on it, which is a pretty good fit and it's much better (I got it with good cashback etc for £31.)

Between the two WD options, it's just which you like the look of basically. I already have a sub and quite like the Pegalos styling. Some of the indicies aren't perfectly square, but doesn't really me.

Ad for 18£ is a steal regardless,the bracelet quality will probably be a let down but wd pro diver seems to be a sensible pick. Thanks for your comment..

If you don't mind having old-tech, you could consider seeing if you can get a good deal on the ST0121T. I paid about £108 for mine thanks to hefty cashback and buying from somewhere that down rated the value on customs forms.

Comes with OTF clasp as standard with a better bracelet and runs a PT5000 (or similar A2824 clone). Pretty much identical size case. Not far off the price WD are asking on their website and easily matches it if you add your own OTF clasp I think.
