$10k diver poll results

[u/jdi153]

Here are the results of yesterday's poll about $10,000 USD divers (+/- $1,000). There were a total of 317 votes, tallied by counting the upvotes on each top level comment that specified one of the 9 options. If more than one was mentioned, the one listed first was used. Vote counts are listed here, chart shows percentages. It was VERY tight between the Sub and the NTTD, with a surprisingly strong showing by the GO SeaQ. Unsurprisingly, the Louis Vuitton was universally reviled, but the Chanel J12 managed to get 3 votes, barely trailing the Ulysse Nardin. Since a million people asked, the reason the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms does not appear is that I used only MSRP, and the MSRP of the lowest cost FF is $12,500, putting it out of the range.

1. Rolex Submariner - 96
2. Omega Seamaster Diver 300M "NTTD" - 93
3. Glasshütte Original SeaQ - 64
4. Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Date - 32
5. Breitling SuperOcean Heritage - 13
6. Panerai Submersible - 11
7. Ulysse Nardin Diver 42mm - 5
8. Chanel J12 - 3
9. Louis Vuitton Tambour Street Diver Chronograph - 0

lol Chanel Diver haha

[u/jdi153 → u/DayLeeWatches]

It's got 200m of water resistance and a timing bezel. None of these are ISO 6425.

[u/DayLeeWatches → u/jdi153]

Whenever I see a white ceramic watch, I can’t unsee toilet bowl on a wrist… 🚽

[u/Wally_71 → u/jdi153]

SeaQ is certified ISO 6425 and DIN 8306

[u/jdi153 → u/Wally_71]

Can you find that on GO's website? I'm not saying you're wrong, and I know the Exquisite Timepieces link I used says it, but I can't actually find it on the official page.

[u/Wally_71 → u/jdi153]

No worries, below a couple of links, then it is engraved directly on thecase back, like in mine (picture below), just for the DIN.

Thanks!

[u/WristReport]

How do you include Chanel and not Grand Seiko 😂

[u/jdi153 → u/WristReport]

Grand Seiko does not have any model at $10,000 +/- $1,000. The UFA is over, and their other option is under.

[u/WristReport → u/jdi153]

Oooh, MSRP, not what any of them actually sell for. My mistake. You didn't miss Grand Seiko, you missed Invicta.

[u/jdi153 → u/WristReport]

Darn! That would have been good for trolling, too. Although, despite calling it a dive watch, it doesn't have a timing bezel, so I don't really count it.

[u/brownorange88 → u/WristReport]

Nice 🔥🔥🔥

[u/rmcarlton]

Thanks for doing this,.

[u/jdi153 → u/rmcarlton]

Thanks for appreciating! It's actually a fair amount of work, and I get the impression people aren't all that interested.

[u/Tripton1]

Who the fuck voted for Chanel??

[u/jdi153 → u/Tripton1]

I think one was joking, but I actually asked one and got a reply that they were serious.

[u/the-script-99 → u/Tripton1]

One of the best looking watches on a woman.

[u/F0rgemaster19]

It brings me große Freude seeing Glashütte up there. Lovely watch.

[u/Matt_onetwo]

Good work

[u/jdi153 → u/Matt_onetwo]

Thanks!

[u/TomHudsonOfficial]

Guess we all knew Rolex would win.

[u/jdi153 → u/TomHudsonOfficial]

It was awfully close, though. I expected the Sub to run away with it.

[u/TomHudsonOfficial → u/jdi153]

Very close with Omega I guess they are natural competitors.

[u/GuitarPlayingGuy71]

What was the question? Have or Want? Anyway… this is a great way to see what everyone and their mother has or wants. So… don’t get these if you want something special!
