Aquastar Deepstar IIvsBremont Supermarine 300M

Owners widely praise the Aquastar Deepstar II for its comfortable 37mm wearability, vintage aesthetic, and excellent value. Reviewers and owners alike highlight its smooth-winding Sellita SW290-1 movement, remarkable timekeeping, and legible dial with excellent lume. The updated beads-of-rice bracelet with a diver extension is considered a worthwhile upgrade, and the included grey tropic strap is notably supple. Some owners, however, find the 37mm case diameter too small, despite the 47mm lug-to-lug contributing to a larger perceived wrist presence. One owner dislikes the small seconds subdial, finding it interrupts the dial's aesthetic. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Aquastar Deepstar II highly for its vintage charm, comfortable wearability, and strong value proposition.

The Bremont Supermarine 300M is praised for its comfortable 40mm case, which some owners find wears well even on smaller wrists due to its lug design, outperforming some 40mm watches. One forum contributor notes the 40mm case is relatively compact for a 300m diver and is priced at $1375. A reviewer found the 40mm case comfortable. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the Bremont Supermarine 300M's wearable 40mm case size and comfortable wearability.
