Probably One of the Nicest Watches You Can Buy for Less than $200.
This was my first micro brand watch (unless you count Invicta back in the late 1990s), and I am extremely impressed. I have avoided micro brands mostly because many of the better looking ones are over $500, which seems like a lot of money to gamble on a watch with no pedigree and little customer support.But at the price offered here (under $200), I figured it was worth the gamble. I was not disappointed.Though it could be labeled a "sub homage," the design is different enough to sort of generically invoke other dive watches of the 1950s - 1960s rather than just the sub.The case is slightly oversized compared to a true sub and very bulky with a handsome satin finish. The watch sits tall, but shouldn't be too tall if your accustomed to wearing mechanical Seikos (the Seko NH movement is unnecessarily tall). The bezel clicks positively and lines up perfectly with the 12 and 6 o'clock positions. The bezel insert features the thinner numeric font found on the Submariner rather than the thicker font found on the Invicta Pro Diver.All indices are sharp and affixed perfectly on the dial. The scown screws down smoothly and is easy to operate. The bracelet even has hollow end links. The case boasts 300m water resistance and a helium release valve - although I will never be a saturation diver (nor will most owners of this watch), so I will never know if either the WR or the valve works (unless either fails in my pool). The sapphire crystal is clear and slightly domed, giving the watch a retro vibe.The only weak part of this watch is the bracelet. Though it has solid end links, the bracelet seems disproportionately thin compared the thickness of the case, uses sizing pins instead of screws, and has a stamped push-button deployment clasp of the type one might find on a Fossil, Nixon, or Citizen watch. For the price, the bracelet is nice enough, if not better than other offerings at this price point (and certainly better than bracelets sold with some more expensive Seikos divers), but still underwhelming when paired with the main body of the watch (again - something that seems more in the $500-$600 range). It makes me wonder if StrapCode offers a Miltat Super Oyster that would fit this watch . . .Only time will tell if this watch is durable, reliable, or water-resistant as advertised, but so far, it's off to a good start.

Amazing value
Very nice watch. Movement performs well. I personally think the dial and markers are very appealing. Lume is poor, if that is important to you, you wont be happy. I don't factor lume in at all. Go with a tritium tube watch like marathon. Bracelet is respectable with minimal play and nice locking mechanism.

Great quality, but not a fan of the dial layout
Good quality, but only having the 6 and 9 through off the dials balance too much in person. Looking too see what else Neymar does in this price point.

Great value and fun to wear
The bezel was a little bit bright, but with some bleach I “ghosted” it and then put it on a mesh bracelet. Great look!! Love this watch.

Highly detailed well-executed timepiece.
From the sublime blue sunburst dial to the vintage diver case to the clean and mechanically precise bezel, the outstanding windeable hackable Seiko hart...and the vintage high value lume - this watch is a homerun, very happy with it.

The Neymar 300 Diver: “Solidly built. Keeps reliable time.”
One month in with the Neymar 300 I am quite pleased with my purchase. The watch is solidly built, feels like a tool watch Diver, and has a similar look to more expensive Swiss built Divers such as Squale 50 ATM. When considering this watch one must remember that this is a 300 mm Diver and thus will have a thicker case, which some wearers may find uncomfortable.. The simple solution to that is to purchase only the water resistance you need, and to consider case thickness as a primary consideration when judging the comfort of an every day all day tool watch. I am wearing mine on a simple green one piece NATO strap while I wait for my vintage leather watch bands order. Then this will go on a brown leather strap for casual wear this Summer. When you purchase a tool watch for every day wear it is critical to try the watch on and make sure that you will be comfortable wearing it. If the watch feels heavy, sometimes a NATO strap or soft leather strap will solve the discomfort issue.

Incredible bang for your buck !
Awesome , especially as an everyday beater. I put a Barton leather Nato strap on it . Where can you find 300m, helium release, sapphire crystal, Seiko NH35 automatic movement at this price.
