Hi all,

I am torn between two watches, the Zenton M45 or the Helson Shark Diver. They are very similar but also different. Both out of Hong Kong. The Zenton comes in many verions which is nice. The shark diver a bit more angular which is appealing.

Do any of you have any experience with both of these?

Any thoughts on which you would choose and why?

Thanks for your feedback in advance.

Cheers,
Spencer

I chose the Zenton because at the time the Helson did not have an inegrated bracelet, the Zenton did, also the Zenton allowed a large amount of customization, including a 9 o'clock crown which I love on a big watch, and the icing on the cake was that they use a Top Grade 2824. So IMO the whole package offered quite good value. I also ordered the c3 lume on bezel and dial and it's a torch better than my Omega, Autozzilla, or Seiko MM300

The top grade movement is a real plus to be sure. I kind of like the green dial with C3, but what first drew me to the watch was a full lume dial photo I saw of it.

There are so many great watches out right now. Hard to decide.
