Like everything from blue jeans to aviator sunglasses, dive watches have moved beyond their original practical purpose to become a style staple. A good dive watch is part of any robust watch collection, and right now Macy’s has a very good Stuhrling dive watch on sale with a very deep discount.
The Stuhrling Meridian Men’s 42mm Quartz GMT Dive Watch is on sale for $99 at Macy’s, 80% off its normal $495 price tag. It comes in a single, striking colorway: stainless steel case and jubilee bracelet, black and blue bezel, and black dial with luminous white markings.

It’s easy to see, when examining this watch, how what were once practicalities have become sought-after aesthetic details.
The two-tone bezel, for instance, is there because this is a GMT watch that has an extra hand that can track time in a different time zone. It does so on a 24-hour scale, so the two different colors roughly differentiate between daylight and night hours. The high-contrast, luminous markings on the dial and the bright orange GMT hand make it easy to read at a glance, even if you’re underwater. Stainless steel is a hard, durable metal that makes sense for practical applications and also happens to look quite sharp on the wrist.
This watch is water-resistant to 100 meters, so you don’t have to worry about getting caught in a rainstorm, and it has a magnified date window at the 3 o’clock position. The whole thing works and looks great, which is all you can really ask for in a timepiece.
