Best Dive Watches Under £1000 for Men in UK

If you’re a watch fanatic and want to spice up your collection, you should probably consider a diver’s timepiece. They come in an array of different styles that can suit any occasion, and the best thing about them, they’re not going to break the bank completely.

To be deemed a dive watch, they must be compliant with the ISO 6425 standards, which contain a number of requirements, including that the watch must have a minimum water resistance equivalent to 100m. Because of these standards, you’re guaranteed that you’ll receive a quality watch that is crafted under solid regulations.

As well as the case, a dive watch has glow-in-the-dark lume on most of its markings. This way, the time and other data can be viewed in total darkness on the seabed. A helium escape valve, often located around the 10 o'clock position, will come into place. This lets helium particles escape, balancing internal pressure and preventing damage.

Another key feature separating dive watches from others is the bracelet. So the watch can be worn over the outside of a diving suit, ready to be used for keeping tabs on your oxygen supply. By their very nature, most dive watches are massively over-engineered.

Nonetheless, divers’ watches are phenomenal watches to have in your arsenal. Without further ado, let’s get into the best dive watches under £1,000.
