The inclusion of a Swiss STP caliber STP1-11 automatic movement is noted, though its practical performance difference from previous movements is considered minimal. Some reviewers point out that the design language borrows heavily from other brands, and one owner noted the absence of the signature red-lined leather strap.

Owners widely praise the Sugess Seestern S434 Pro Diver for its impressive finishing and craftsmanship at its price point, highlighting the applied indices that play with light, excellent BGW9 lume, and attractive color options. Specific positive notes include the domed sapphire crystal, short lug-to-lug, and on-the-fly clasp adjustment. However, some owners report quality control issues such as misaligned bezels or indices, while others with V2 models experience no such problems. Caveats include slight bezel back play, light AR coating on the crystal, and a clasp that could be smoother, with one owner desiring a color-matched date wheel. On balance, owners rate the Sugess Seestern S434 Pro Diver highly for its exceptional value and build quality, particularly the dial finishing and lume.
