Thanks for this great video I was not sure about the Tatical Frog but here you have shown that the Seestern is the better watch

[@WesWatchRoom]

Fantastic comparison, for me the seestern is a bit more polished and well done this time round, but with both having second versions, that might be a different story.

[@seadweller44]

Yup, totally agree! We will need to see how the V2’s fair!👍🏻😄

[@diddleysquat4543]

Really enjoyed seeing both versions in this side by side, wonderfully objective review and great, clear footage. Hope you will be able to do a new set of vids with the revised versions of each watch when they arrive. Your channel is top class!

[@seadweller44]

Thank you, very kind and much appreciated!🙏🏻 I have both V2’s on order, so looking forward to see how they will fair!👍🏻😄

[@kimmern999]

I've just placed an order on the Tactical Frog V2. All the updates done to it looks great. Looking forward to getting it, it would be my first Sub 300T. Thanks for the comparison video.

[@seadweller44]

Thank you🙏🏻 I’m looking forward to receiving mine too!👍🏻😄

[@cmdrflint9115]

I own 3 Doxa subs (300T 1970, 300T 2002 and modern 300T 2019), but I'm pretty darn tempted by the v2 Seestern as a work beater + hell, £149 just for the beads of rice bracelet is a steal.

[@seadweller44]

Absolutely, I’m waiting on the V2 Seestern to arrive, so will have the full review when it does. And yes! Should be perfect for a work beater I would think!👍🏻😄

[@fabriziodutto7508]

Thank you for sharing this great and in-depth comparison between the two doxa homages, there are very similar watches, but you've pointed out some interesting differences that are not easily visible to the buyer on the web. Keep up the great job!

[@seadweller44]

Thank you, very kind of you and much appreciated. 🙏🏻

[@florotekbiosystems1]

Very Unbiased and Precise comparison. My vote goes for Tactical Frog V2.Applied markers and better proportioned hands seals the deal for me.

[@seadweller44]

Thank you! I’m looking forward to reviewing both V2 watches when they arrive!

[@watchluver]

Seestern hands down, TF's bezel is absolutely useless. And the Seesterns band is quite a bit thicker also. But the crystal on the TF is really nice! Maybe next time you could show us the bezels in action?

[@SAXDAVEBOY]

Love both. Soft spot for the Frog 🐸 😍

[@Jason-hv4eu]

Great review! I own both watches as well. I agree with you on all accounts. Thank you for the great content. .

[@seadweller44]

Thanks very much! 🙏🏻😄

[@Ericdagreat]

Tactical frog V3 is close on to the sub 300-thinner case, flatter bracelet links and flatter rice beads, curved sapphire. Seestern closer to the Sub 300T- flat sapphire, thicker bracelet links, thicker case than the sub 300

[@seeker7679]

Another dreich day in Scotland, eh?😉 I have the MOP Seestern v1 and I'm waiting on the v2 Frog white dial and white rubber strap. Like you I like points on both watches. As far as I can tell the only v2 difference in the Seestern is they're offering two more dials, a white and a sort of cube design. Thanks for the comparison. All the best!

[@seadweller44]

Thank you.🙏🏻 I think the V2 Seestern has a few revisions, a slimmer case, lume pip bezel, but I will need to wait until it arrives before I can be any more definitive. I have both the V2 Seestern and V2 Tactical Frog on the way, so looking forward to seeing them both in person. I’ll have reviews out when they arrive.👍🏻😄

[@danspanos]

Great review and comparison, Chris! I really like the look of the Seestern quite a bit more, but as you said, the case profile of the Tactical Frog looks like it would be way more comfortable on the wrist. Hmm... Maybe you made this more difficult! 😂 On a side note, If someone ever wrote the story of my life, I'd definitely want you to narrate it! 🍻

[@seadweller44]

Thank you, very kind and much appreciated!👍🏻🙏🏻 Bear in mind the V2 of both of these could be great, with some significant changes by both companies!

[@24934637]

I've recently bought a real Doxa Sub 300T Professional but I really like the Sharkhunter and the Aquamarine too, but I'm not made of money, seriously tempted by one of these! From what I've seen on this vid, I tend to agree that the Seestern seems to be slightly superior, partly because it's got the same bezel as the Doxa rather than one saying 'Tachymeter' on it! One thing that I'm quite disappointed about with my Doxa is that I have great difficulty reading the numbers on the bezel, probably doesn't help that I'm 46 and eyesight is deteriorating along with everything else, but I doubt if many people would be able to read it in murky water no matter how good their eyesight!

[@seadweller44]

I owned a Doxa 600T many years ago and I loved it, so was super excited when Seestern released these! I have to say, the Seestern homages are really superb, even more so when you consider the price! You should definitely get one and see how it compares directly to the Doxa! Thanks for the comment!👍🏻😄

[@agilewolf]

Can the Seestern bracelet fit the Frog case??

[@olivermerce]

Hi! What is the diameter of the Seestern bezel? Thanks a lot!

[@johnandrews3568]

Thanks for reviewing both head to head, Chris. I ordered a V2 Seestern which I believe are scheduled to ship around not (end of Oct). Do you know what V2 niggles Seestern is updating and taking care of?

[@seadweller44]

Thank you 🙏🏻 As far as I know, the V2 Seestern will have a slimmer case and a lumed bezel pip. Don’t know if there will be any more revisions, but I’m looking forward to receiving it!👍🏻😄

[@johnandrews3568]

@@seadweller44 yeah the lack of lumed pip was a bad omission. Slimmer case? I'm excited to see this thing. I ordered the teal dial. I just hope (wish) the rubber strap is colour matched to the dial, but I'm not holding my breath. Likely be black.

[@seadweller44]

I’ve ordered the black LE version, so I’m hoping it will be black! Hopefully you will receive a matching one.

[@brettmeikle]

@@seadweller44 Did I hear they're going to adjust the date wheel for better alignment?

[@seadweller44]

I think there was a small issue on date alignment, but I am not sure which model it was? I think it may have been the 62mas model.And yes, we were told it is rectified now.👍🏻😄

[@zabdielalvarez5285]

EXCELENTE Y HONESTO VIDEO. ESPERARÉ CON ANSIAS EL FACE TO FACE DE LAS VERNSIONES V2. MUCHAS GRACIAS. SALUDOS DESDE MÉXICO.

[@seadweller44]

Muchas gracias amigo!🙏🏻

[@King64]

Super watch show..!

[@LoveBandit1000]

The tachymeter on the Frog's bezel is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Not only is it useless as a diving-decompressing aid but it is also worthless as a tachymeter because there is no zero-able chrono second hand to utilize with it...

[@seadweller44]

Yes, agreed, but I believe the V2 will rectify this.👍🏻😄

[@piotrszmidel]

I like more the bezel of Frog,why its bead blasted on Seestern?3 types of finishing is a bit much.Also I find applied indexes as more appealing than printed.Would be totally crazy if the surroundings of the indexes were high polished silver and the bezel double finished like in original Doxa🤔

[@seadweller44]

The bead blasted finish on the Seestern bezel is only on the very edge of the knurled parts, it actually looks nice I think, something a bit different. I also like the combination of brushed and polished finish to the Doxa bezel, it looks fantastic, but it is a real scratch magnet for sure!

[@watchluver]

The Seesterns dial is closer to the original, both are printed, also the bezel is rather useless on the TG... but I do prefer the domed crystal on the TF 👍 might try to mod my seestern?? 🤔

[@donkykon2094]

do you like the bald ladiboi from scottish watches?

[@milliganlaw]

How about a side by side comparison to the real DOXA?

[@seadweller44]

Would be very cool, but alas I don’t own a real Doxa anymore.

[@corail53]

These things are cheap enough to mod them to however you want to make em your own.

[@Sashko_Dee]

Cistern?

[@ricardodiaz6187]

Idk why the frog has a tachymeter!!!??????????

[@seadweller44]

Yes it was an odd choice, but they did rectify this with the V2.

[@tomasinacovell4293]

Tactical Frog needs to add better details like pierced lugs and stop doing things wrong like the bezel, and wow why not if you're making a Doxa copy. But I hate bead blasting on any Doxa, real dive watches like diving equipment are polished.

[@seadweller44]

Yes, I understand what you mean. I wonder if the finish will be altered in any of the V2 versions?👍🏻😄🙏🏻

[@nuancepill8066]

the problem with seestern is once they sell their 500 or whatever V1 in a month, they come out with a V2 a month later. And when they sell out on that? What a V3? I don't like having the "old" one 30 days later. A year, like Apple? Maybe. A month? Pass.

[@seadweller44]

I hear what you’re saying, but I think it’s a good thing. Seestern are a new brand so their first run of the Sub 300 model probably wasn’t that big. They have listened closely to what a lot of different people have said about this model, what was good and what could be improved on, and they have actually implemented these changes into a second run or V2. That’s not to say the V1 is a bad watch, it isn’t. But I think a smaller company or brand who listens to their customers and actually changes and tweaks their product, is something to be commended.

[@watchluver]

With this logic you may never buy one! 😬

[@camarocarl7130]

Wonder what the chinese sweat shops that made these POS crap watches think ?
