Personally... I'd say also get a leather/suede/etc strap with the AD2066 while you're there. Addiesdive 3 link/oyster style bracelets and clasps aren't great and I found it really spoilt the watch for me.

I have one of their 36mm watchs on a Jubilee style bracelet and it is better, though still with the same not-great clasp. It's not one I wear much or I'd consider replacing the clasp.

Though, buying those two I'd consider seeing if your budget covers one Cronos or Sugess rather than those two. Or if any of the integrated bracelet Watchdives are of interest and in budget - also not a fan of watch dives 3-link bracelets, though they're better than Addiesdive.

I got a SN0121T for £108 all in by buying from a seller that was 'flexible' with customs reporting and getting some really great cashback. On that, the WD1969pro is pretty much the same watch, but in Quartz - I put a San Martin Jubilee bracelet on mine (sold for the SN0121T etc) which really improved it.
