Timex Tiburon - A Worthy Competitor?

Post by FiveFathomsDeep » Sun Jan 28, 2024 12:52 pm

When it comes to dive watches from the most economical brands, I’ve always associated Casio with being at the top of the game. That being said, I stumbled across this interesting piece from Timex - the Tiburon.

Specs include:
- 200 meters of water resistance
- Sapphire Crystal
- Japanese automatic movement (brand not listed, my assumption is Miyota?)
- Less objective, but I really enjoy this dial. Screams all business and the hands are very legible (unsure of how the lume is though). Also love the addition of the diver’s flag.

What are your thoughts on this piece? At a similar price, how does it hold up to orient, Seiko, and citizen?

(Apologies for the poor quality photos.)

It's not bad looking, but I'd personally take any of the other brands you mentioned over a timex diver. They're fashion first in my experience.

I don’t mind this Timex-Huckberry colab: titanium field watch, good lume, Mitota motor.
