Recently picked up one of these Aliexpress specials. The STEELDIVE 1970 or SD1970 is a Chinese clone of a Seiko Captain Willard. While I don't have a $1,500+ Captain Willard to compare it to I do have a Seiko 5 Sports SRPD AKA 5KX. Sapphire, 200M WR, Solid end links and full lume bezel for $80? Fact is specs wise this cheap clone is closer to the $1,500 Captain Willard than it is the $250 5KX! It's not even a close competition!
