Now, personally, I've been looking for a sports/dress watch with a subtle rotating bezel for a while, something like this (but this one doesn't rotate, sadly):

But it doesn't seem to exist. So a super compressor is the closest you can get to a "dress diver".

Wouldn't a Rolex Turn-o-graph be exactly the watch you are looking for?

Let us know where you can get a Rolex Turn-o-graph for 1000 pounds!

Do you dive dressed up?

As much as I love mine, it's not a dive 🙃

@Oakenfield was looking for this with a rotating bezel. My response was to him rather than the OP.

Oh man, what a bummer! Easy fix?

Sure thing. I bought one of these demagnitizers on this dreadful Amazon. Works like a charm.

Yes, but I like the bezel from the Airking better, with no numerals. Also I don't like the cyclops. Really, my ideal would be the Airking with a rotating bezel. And decent lume. And 100 of WR.

I'm actually surprised there aren't any dress watches with rotating bezels. They're so useful for meetings and things like that...

Styling here might be a bit more aggressive than you want, but there is the DRZ 05 Solaris Black Date:

There's also the Sternglas Marus

Or, if you can sacrifice the date, the Baltic Aquascaphe or Lorier Nepture.

Good point! I never tought using bezel marks for minutes OR hour timing.

You probably want some type of super compressor for minimal bezel presence. My suggestion would be the Longines Legend Diver, but unless you can find a great deal on pre-owned, it would be over your budget. Perfectly usable as a dress watch on mesh and casually on leather.

I have a nice one for sale here in marketplace for $1400, which is about £1150.

Aside from my Rolex Bluesy, a couple of watches come to mind. First a Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe and second an IWC Aquatimer. Oh wait, I see this was edited to a 1000 pound max. Son, I guess you're on your own.

Also the IWC with the inboard timing dial.

A date version of this would be pretty much bang on the money, shame only the GMT has date, which is, in my opinion, not as well balanced as this piece.

 

[OneEyeMan]

If you can live without a date, this is perfect.

Have a look at Baltic. The Aquascaphe might grab you. Lord knows mine grabs other people:

You are 100% right, a subtle bezel would be a daily use, hence why I want one!

 

[crazyfields]

Do you dive dressed up?

Always, don't you? 😬

First batch sold out quickly. Preorder for March. With or without date.

NEPTUNE SIV - DATE

The quintessential dive watch.

I’d give Chris Ward a call.
If you do don’t forget the £100 voucher. If there’s not one valid then the next one will be along in a few days.
