Seiko · Prospex 1970 Diver’s Re-creation SLA033J1

Strengths

Willard is recognisable from its silhouette alone. The SLA033 retains that asymmetry and adds a modern 8L35 inside. Its film connection is a pleasant way to begin exploring an unusual Seiko.

Things to consider

Try the 45 mm size before buying. The vintage 6105 and SLA033 differ in construction and water resistance; each example's condition needs separate checking. The 2019 price is not a current offer.

OMEGA · Seamaster Diver 300M James Bond Edition / Spectre Edition

Strengths

Spectre hides its main symbol on the rotor and keeps a calm black dial. Bond chooses blue waves and a titanium bezel. Mechanically they are equal: choose the look and fit rather than expecting a new calibre.

Things to consider

The 14.23 mm thickness and 50.00 mm length call for trying them on. On 5 October 2026, the individual versions are unavailable online in the US catalogue; local price and availability are unconfirmed.
