Has anyone heard of Debert? I've been wanting to get an Omega Seamaster 300, but considering I am finishing up grad school, just got engaged, etc, I am still in the PMW club. The Debert looks like it could fit that itch for the next year or two. They have both a black and blue version of the watch.
Thoughts?
As with most Parnis, your greatest enemy will be shoddy quality control. The smaller / cheaper / fly by night sellers dont check their watches at all and duds are more common. More respectable retailers will check their watches. But overall, these watches are of middling quality and are usually not accurate over long periods of time and field very little water resistance (which was the dealbreaker for me, to be honest). I personally recommend dajiwatch as a parnis / sterile / homage retailer. I have never had problems with the few watches I have ordered from them.
Overall I would recommend moving away from this category, as you can buy solid Seiko, Citize, and Vostok divers for the same money which will be more robust, reliable, and waterproof. Some great Vostok Amphibias for $150:
