Cazalea presents a comprehensive visual overview of his extensive Seiko diver watch collection, prompting a discussion on whether a collector can ever truly have 'enough' of a specific watch type. Despite his self-professed lack of diving experience, his passion for these robust timepieces shines through, inviting community members to weigh in on the collector's dilemma. This post offers a rich photographic journey through various Seiko diver models.

I have never been a diver (Ok, once off Hawaii on a tourist catamaran trip with snorkel) but I do spent a fair amount of time around the ocean so I NEED a diver watch, right?

While staring covetously at the green Seiko Divers that have been populating our site, I keep thinking I need another one. But then I went to the Seiko Diver folder on my Mac, and I found all these:

and I concluded "Haven't I had enough Seiko divers for one lifetime?"

I know plenty of others here who have had more, but maybe I have had my share.

What do you think?

Your dive-to-watch ratio

cazalea, The scientist in me could not resist. Calculating your dive-to-watch ratio factoring the average power reserve vs actual immersion duration etc etc.... The tiny result had so many decimal points that it almost knocked off the first significant numeral from my calculator LCD display! Thus, I concluded that you have exceeded your lifetime allocation by some margin. Quod erat demonstratum. 🤣 MTF Meanwhile, I'll dive into some wild mushrooms... Seiko Automatic Diver PADI Edition
