The Watch Thread - Part 14

[cyrenic]

Perhaps less than 1k for a start..

Good to also figure out what style you like best.

You won't settle on it right away. I suggest you go cheap with one of these, unless you earn a lot then it's up to you to go all the way but be prepared to lose value especially for certain styles.

Dress watch - Orient Bambino
Dive watch - Seiko SKX007 or Seiko Sea Urchin
Pilot watch - Perhaps a Tisell 40mm or Seiko SNZG series
Chronograph - probably a Seiko quartz chrono, or Citizen Eco-drive model

Later on, when you're clearer on your taste, then buy a higher end model that you like (if you like the genre, you'll be sure to read up more and develop your own "grails").

I had a Tissot PRC200 and Seiko SNZG15 for the longest time, decided to try an Orient Mako, veered off into Bambino... Then slowly shifted my collection towards largely microbrands and all diver.

Cartier santos prices quite soft, despite alot of marketing everywhere

Just hold on to a while can get good bargains

I like the history of santos as the first modern men wrist watch

The lume looks photoshopped on and I don't mean that in a negative way at all.
