Aquastar Deepstar IIvsSeiko Prospex Sea Seiko Diver’s Watch 60th Anniversary Limited Edition

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 Seiko Prospex Sea Seiko Diver’s Watch 60th Anniversary Limited Edition is praised for its comfortable MarineMaster case design and attractive wave-patterned silvery-white dial with a grey bezel insert. Owners note the 40mm case and 300m water resistance. Some owners criticize the 6R55 movement's accuracy, reporting deviations of +25/-15 seconds per day, and find the watch expensive for a limited edition with a large production run. Overall, owners find the Seiko Prospex Sea Seiko Diver’s Watch 60th Anniversary Limited Edition a comfortable and attractive watch, though some question its value proposition due to accuracy concerns and its "limited" status.
