On the Wrist, from off the Cuff: WwRR - Ep. 25; Battle of the Entry-level Auto-Divers 3

[@dustinr16]

Seiko mini-turtle all the way. This is the most underrated Seiko currently made. It’s such a great piece showcasing Seiko’s design and case finishing prowess. Also it’s such a great, wearable size; especially for those with smaller wrists. Great video on 3 amazingly value packed watches.

[@liambyrne3488]

Great comparison. I go for the citizen overall bang for buck value, plus I'm wearing it right now and can vouch for its quality!

[@thomaspetro9228]

Nice comparison of the models! My personal pick is the Orient Kamasu. I own the blue dial version and enjoy wearing it.

[@1968jpy]

Your reviews are awesome 👏🏼 keep them coming . Great comparison of these three great watches 👍🏻💯

[@tristandauod]

Thanks for the in-depth comparison!

[@edk2221]

I just got that exact Citizen. They’re now finally putting out models mimicking their past divers. I say, for the cost (I got mine from Japan for $267USD), they’re too cool

[@teeKeri]

This is a very good comparison video. All of these three watches are interesting, and i own the Kamasu myself. ♥

Orient just out here catchin' bodies at entry level...

[@tokintexan3619]

I'm stuck between a orient star diver and a king turtle by seiko both nice looking watches I'm so torn 😫

[@Digital_Ken]

Seiko-holic here so I'm going with the Seiko. I have baby Turtle and Orient Kamasu. I'm getting my first automatic Citizen watch nb1050-59e, but Seiko all the way for me.

[@AverageBros]

thanks and enjoy!

[@a_commisso77]

I have both the Kamasu and the Mini Turtle and I feel like the Kamasu wears much smaller, closer to a 40mm maybe even a 39. The Mini Turtle on the other hand has a lot more presence due to the bezel. It feels more like a 42-43 even with the short lug to lug which just makes it fit more wrists. If you have a smaller wrist and want to go for a watch that will be more compact and less bulky I’d go for the Kamasu.

[@gerardoesparza8650]

Orient Kamasu for sure…..

[@franciscos.3671]

I would go with the Seiko but with the mark 1 black because I could not live with that red seconds hand.

[@LarryCoffer]

The Citizen is the best value IMO

@@AverageBros thanks! Great video

[@paul--b]

Citizen has been borrowing Rolexes hand design for 50 years. Does that make it ok? Somehow it kinda does.

[@AverageBros]

lol, nailed it

[@DOPEGEEE]

Pls do us the favour and put them on a timegrapher. I bet on the Citizen to be the most accurate. Nice vid.

[@frankramirez86]

The citizen its the best

[@vmatomatonti2948]

Seiko all day every day

[@23727bgk]

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of "entry level" divers on the market. Most have similar specs; NH35A movement, sapphire crystal, screw down crown and case back, some sort of lume and at least 200m water resistance. Comparing watches in this category is futile.

[@AverageBros]

What set these choices apart are their level of inhouse construction combined with heritage within the dive watch space, as well as having original brand design aesthetics.

[@ramspencer5492]

Nope. Used... None of these are collectables... So I'll take better specs in a bang for buck microbrand, at these price points. Rather than cripple the watches specs just to have a bigger name on the dial.
