Oris Divers Sixty‑Five DatevsSeiko Prospex LX line

The Oris Divers Sixty-Five Date is praised for its vintage charm, wearable 40mm size, and legible dial, with its dramatically domed sapphire crystal enhancing the dial's appearance and very good lume. The Sellita SW 200-1 based Oris 733 calibre offers a 38-hour power reserve. Some owners feel the watch is overpriced for its 10atm water resistance and suggest higher case and bracelet quality for the price. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Oris Divers Sixty-Five Date for its vintage charm and wearable dimensions, though some question its value proposition relative to its water resistance.

Owners widely report the Seiko Prospex LX line's finishing is a step up from other models, with a case that sits well on the wrist, and some praise the green sunburst dial with blue anti-reflective sapphire crystal as phenomenal. However, owners note the high MSRP limited sales, with some desiring smaller cases and a reduced price, and others experienced quality control issues such as detached second hands and peeling DLC coating, leading to concerns about fragility. On balance, owners feel the Seiko Prospex LX line was discontinued due to pricing that alienated its target market, despite its attractive dial.
