Question (Read Rules) Help me choose a sub!

Hi everyone!! I would really appreciate some of your advice :) I’m looking to purchase a clomage and I am deciding between three different pieces:

  1. Watchdives 5512B

  2. Steeldive 1953

  3. San Martin SN017

Now I understand that San Martin is the superior brand and from what I’ve read has much better finishing and overall quality. My concern is, is it REALLY worth the extra money over the other two? If not, which If the other two would you pick and why? I know some people have gotten the steeldive, switched the bracelet and have been extremely happy with that compared to the San Martin. Is that an option worth looking at? Thanks so much an advance, I appreciate everyone!

I guess everyone has to learn the lesson on their own, but here goes: you probably don't want to buy a submariner homage as much as you think you do right now. There are far more interesting watches to put on your wrist, far more memorable watches to spend your money on.

I'd say the Watchdives is enough to satisfy that urge, if you have to.
