Dive watch under 3k
I am looking at getting a new dive watch under 3k. I am looking at a Breitling Superocean II 42mm and an Omega Seamaster Diver 300m 212.30.41.20.03.001. Am I missing a better option for my price range?

I would also suggest a TUDOR Pelagos or a DOXA Aqua Lung.

Pelagos or black bay for me. Lots of options though and the 2 you mention are good. Get a discount though.

The Seamaster can be bought for really close to $3k from an AD. You can get it for $2500 grey market. That would be my pick in that price range. It simply wears really well

New as in "brand new from factory" or "new to you but pre-owned is ok"
Pelago, Seamaster Pro with ceramic bezel insert, Oris Aqus, Seiko SBDX001, Tuna would be my top choices.

SM300 and Black Bay are awfully hard to beat at those price points.

Avenger II Seawolf and Steelfish I would add to your list as well. Pelagos is cool.
