Just seen, they’ve got some stunners! Thanks mate

That’s good point in fairness

Your right of course, there’s no such thing. I think if I’m honest here I was kinda looking for validation of the choice from those in the community who know more than myself 😂 you only get to choose your first mechanical watch once, maybe I’m completely overthinking it and need to take your advice and just pick a watch I like and buy it

My past hairstyles would certainly suggest I’m a sucker for what is ‘now’ for sure 😂 defiantly one of the reasons I wanted to post here for second opinions is I understand that popular does not always equate to the best.

Appreciate the suggestions mate, I’ve not seen Alpina before so I’ll have to check them out for sure. And congrats on the Jazzmaster too!

Agreed! Some great suggestions already.

Funny you mention preferences because I only started to re consider the PRX due to the new release of the 35mm auto. I lean towards the smaller sized pieces anyway just as a matter of preference which sounds contradictory with the seamaster on my wish-list I know but with the integrated bracelet the 40mm PRX seems to wear bigger than the 40mm sizing would suggest, I know for a lot 35mm is too small but that’s the beauty in personal preference I guess!

Very helpful mate and thank you for taking to time to comment, appreciate it 👊🏻

Your right mate, I think you’ve hit the nail on the head there my heart isn’t set on a PRX, like it is with the Santos, seasmaster or even getting the Casio I wear daily over my Apple Watch.

I like them don’t get me wrong, style wise and the case back etc but after reading some negative takes about the plastics used within the movement I thought I’d open out to suggestions on watches that are more respected within the community under that budget, less because I care what people think and more because I value knowledge from those more knowledgeable than myself if you get me?

Thanks for commenting dude!

Thanks mate, appreciate that. I see your points and they a super valid too.

I probably am robbing myself of the experience of each tier of collecting and enjoying a watch for what it is instead of the name it’s marked with. I love what your getting at life is short enjoy what you like and if that watches go for it but there’s just something installed in me to earn things that are luxury, I’ve got no real interest in luxury cars and I dress pretty simply so watches are my materialistic crutch.

CW is also a great shout and being a Brit probably should have one on my wish list 👊🏻
