: Seiko automatic divers can be had for under
: $200. They aren't as accurate as an Omega or
: as nicely finished. Mine was about plus 25
: seconds per day out of the box and has
: settled down to plus 15 seconds per day. It
: probably could be regulated to being a bit
: better. But!!! Most of the people who have
: them love them. They last forever. You can
: always demote yours to being a beater later.

And you can get them from Hong Kong via eBay. I paid about 150 Euros including postage, packaging and taxes for a Seiko Orange Monster while my SMP GMT was in Biel.
