The Sensei's verdict

Arkona - Aequor 12 Tidevand - Nivalis

Both watches offer rugged designs suited for diving, yet they cater to slightly different aesthetics. The Tidevand - Nivalis, with its edged score, presents a more modern and brushed steel look appealing for weekend wear, while the Arkona - Aequor features a sunburst dial that may attract those looking for a more classic flair. If you prioritize a versatile weekend watch and are willing to invest a bit more, the Tidevand - Nivalis is the better choice. Conversely, for a slightly lower price with a captivating design, the Arkona - Aequor is a solid option.
