Croton "Sea-Diver" 200m Dive Watch - Review & Unboxing (CA301303RDBK / Seiko PC32A)

[@WesWatchRoom]

Honestly never heard of these before but I like that it's not just a straight up homage and has it's own flourishes.

Their Sea-Diver is sort of the same as the Wenger SeaForce, or the Breitling SuperOcean in terms of it being their "brand" for dive watches. I'll say I like the watch... the watch itself feels solid. But in the two days I've owned it, the lume pip already fell off (which I'll show in a short later in the week) and the spring clip / channel for the bezel isn't fantastic... it can easily be misaligned. Not a huge deal, I think with the Seiko PC32A it should last a long time, but my problem with the PC32A is that it's a lot like perhaps a 1.8 Toyota Corolla L4 engine (or in your case, a 2.2 Ford Escort). Rock solid, but nothing great. Because of it's size, it also has a smaller battery since it's a lady's movement. This watch really should have had a basic Ronda "Parts" movement. Wouldn't have been much more than a couple dollars, and would have given the watch far more substance. Croton has a mechanical, and Quartz movement of this watch. So... the case and some of the features are the same... but the quartz is the very cheap version of it. I am getting a new strap that comes in either today or tomorrow. So I'm looking for this to be a watch that I basically wear everyday and not be too concerned about what happens.

I've had my croton close to 10 years I just put a battery in it a couple of days ago, I'm wearing it now.

I just bought one on the watchgang wheel spin for 51 dollars.

[@ToddsWatchshop]

Honestly, for $51... you got a good deal. It's definitely a $50+ watch all day long.

@@ToddsWatchshop One of my watchgang wheel spins is late and so they gave me 25 dollars toward another spin. Since I did not want to go big I used it on the 75 dollar spin. I really liked this watch in green so I put it on all three level one. that is the watch I am getting. Looks like a great every day wear for that price. And it looks nice.

I forgot it's a real good watch ,I really wore it roughly and it's still good.
