DOXA Army Watches of Switzerland EditionvsDOXA SUB 300 Beta Sharkhunter

The DOXA Army Watches of Switzerland Edition is praised for its unique, "vegemite watch" aesthetic and excellent lume, surpassing other Doxa models. Reviewers note its matte black ceramic case, sand-beige dial for excellent legibility, and creamy parchment tones with green luminescence. The 42.5mm case, despite its appearance, is surprisingly accommodating with a 44.5mm lug-to-lug and 11.95mm height, offering 300m water resistance. It comes with both a rubber strap and a camouflage NATO strap. Owners find the price lofty, and some note the factory beads-of-rice bracelet has male end links that can awkwardly protrude on smaller wrists. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the DOXA Army Watches of Switzerland Edition highly for its distinctive design and excellent legibility.

The DOXA SUB 300 Beta Sharkhunter is praised for its stealthy, "murdered-out" aesthetic, combining a matte black ceramic case with an 18k gold bezel and crown. Reviewers highlight its slimmer 11.95mm thickness and comfortable 42.5mm wearability, noting the 44.5mm lug-to-lug contributes to its good fit. The textured black dial and gold-plated indices are considered a stylish statement, though one reviewer found reading the date difficult. The watch features a COSC-certified automatic movement with a 38-hour power reserve, which is considered a potential drawback by some. The price is noted as a significant factor, with one source stating €7,250 and another US$2,250 on a strap. While the purpose-built tool watch aesthetic and no-decompression bezel are lauded, the "beads of rice" bracelet's spring-loaded expansion links are flagged as a potential wear point.
