Much more charm than the Daytona, which didn't get bought.
Really like this. This is the 38mm right?

Your favourite reasonably priced non-Rolex watch you own
When not wearing Rolex I have my trusty Omega dress watch from the early 80's.

Not usually my cup of tea, but I won it for winning a bicycle race in Italy. Might use in trade for a Rolex Daytona when the prices are lower.

My 3570.50 is one of my favorite watches, and one of my most reasonably priced (I bought it pre-owned). It's amazing to me how easy it is to get one of the greatest watches ever made at such a reasonable price.

Couldn't agree more!

And what a stunning photograph too!

Unfortunately (as much as I'd like too) I can't buy a Speedmaster as my dad has one and this watch has a huge amount of sentimental value to me. One day it will be mine so I don't feel I should join the Speedmaster club now as I'll have a VERY special one one day.

I bought this Steelfish for just £1.2K a few years ago, great value for a whole lot of watch.

My LLD suits my work environment which can be a little rough and wet. Shares the same wrist time as my sub.

After thinking about it, my Moonwatch was my first really nice watch that I saved my money for at age seventeen. I still wear it with pride.

This for sure. I was able to purchase it for under $300.00. I have to admit that I regret selling it a bit.

Nice.

I picked up my first NOMOS yesterday, a Timeless LE.
