Hello,
I am looking to find a watch that is within my 200 budget range..
and I am looking at the Seiko SKX007J divers watch..
I love clear back case too but this seiko doesnt have it D:

Any other recommendations other than this watch?

Automatic movement is preferred and the face of the watch must not be too small too :s13:
Any type of straps is fine because most probably I will change it to a new leather strap..

Thank you.



skx031......

Hi guys

I think I have fallen in love with this watch -

SIHH_ChronometrieVasco_Article_1.jpg

Its the Montblanc Heritage Chronométrie ExoTourbillon Minute Chronograph Limited Edition. It's limited to 60 pieces worldwide and will cost about S$70k when it arrives.

It has also received some great reviews -

I've been told that the tourbillon movement was developed in-house by Mont Blanc and has now been patented. Apparently, there has been no new tourbillon design for years!

I am no expert when it comes to watch complications so reaching out to the experts here to get their views on this tourbillon.

Thanks in advance.
