Love them both but considering the huge price difference if i were you i would get the DLC Puck.

Thanks for your advice, I have had Tunas b4 & I know its easy to go on the resale mart. Just that the pricings has went up quite abit from the old SBNN011 to the current SBNN013 which makes it all the more painful to pay for a quartz. I will be gettin the Puck instead. Cheers!
I love the Puck's look, but I'm a Seiko nut so I've got to give credit where it's due. Some say that they can't justify paying for quartz. Well, the quartz movement used in the Tuna's are built specifically for use in tough diving environments. The Tuna justifies its price range in the technology and quality that went into building a top of the line dive watch with a design that is part of the Seiko dive legacy. Best of all, the Tuna just screams "Bad ass." There's one "fault" about the Darth Tuna and that lies in its ceramic shroud. Should the watch suffer a severe drop to the floor, the shroud may crack or shatter. The shroud can be replaced for a price.
All in all, when you get your Puck, post pics. This watch is among my favorite microbrand pieces. :)
P.S.
I wear my Tuna with a suit and tie.![]()

My vote goes to Tuna. It is the watch the Puck is trying to be. Plus Darth Tuna is titanium and light which adds to wearing comfort. Somehow the design of the Puck looks a little cartoonish to me.
I'm a proud Puck owner for a variety of reasons -- all of them excellent ones. . . . but the one thing I like about micros, generally, and the Puck, specifically, . . .is the LUMED BEZEL . . . . Just one aspect to be sure but anymore these days, I like alot of lume for the value proposition (and not my age . . .although . . .)
