Call me a prick or a snob if you want, but if I saw a guy wearing that I would instantly judge him for wearing a “fake Submariner.”
A Seiko SKX007 or 009 - at under $200 - sends a totally different message. With those it looks like you know what you’re doing. Those are just the basic Seiko dive watches, they make plenty more for under $500 that will last a lifetime.
To OP, I was in the exact situation you were, but I was looking at Squale watches instead of steinhart. Both submariner homages. I even posted it on TD. The posters basically said don't get a homage. I ended up getting a Seiko SKX 173 and I love it. Save your money and get the real thing when you're ready.

Nothing wrong with Squale, they actually have a real history. The old 1545s were Rolex homages though.
While a little more money but can be bought well used Doxa watches are very cool, have true dive heritage and with the cushion case and beads of rice bracelet they are very unique.
Another excellent brand (especially used) would be Damasko, they offer some really cool tech for not a lot of money and are a "real" made in Germany watch.
