Czapek Drake S (salmon or light blue, both so nice)
Mid size Lange 1815 blue dial
Vintage Zenith El Primero
Moritz Grossmann (the new 37mm)

I think those are top of list.

Beauty! I tried on the YG one with gold dial and black subdials last week. My wife thought it was cool. Love my 3861 SS. So comfortable.

Ya it’s totally awesome. My favorite part is it’s not a Rolex. Don’t get me wrong I love Rolex but i think everyone would pick the Rolex version of this and it just makes it so special. Incredible value in my opinion- used. Mine is dated April 2023 so six months old! Can’t believe how cool it is. Was never on my radar and honestly didn’t even know they made it in rose. So glad I jumped on it.

Yen is so weak, and there’s this nice looking platinum 18346 now under US$20K …

Do you have any recommendations for online Japanese sites?

116520 white dial. As late of a serial number as I could find

Sinking it into my two cars. Lol! My wife is the only one with any automotive sense.

If we are talking watches, there’s honestly not a lot around $20k I want. Just one north of $20k so just a polar 16570 and save $10-$12 I suppose

Honestly, it’s nice to see some of the pieces people are proposing here (e.g. ALS, AP RO, PP), since not too long ago these were well over $20-$25k I believe. Now I can dare to look at some PP options again.

I agree. That’s why I wear my SS 3861. It’s not a Rolex so good for many scenarios but still an awesome watch. Super comfortable bracelet too. Not sure if you noticed, but there is a micro adjust on these new bracelets, which is nice to see. Enjoy! (As I start looking at used ones myself!)

In the watch world? What are you into? 15300 royal oak starting to drop into the top end of that range.

Lot of vintage Rolex you can get for that. Sea dwellers, 1675 gmts, red subs etc.

Entry level Patek like the 5196

Vacheron Overseas in steel is pretty much entirely within that range now.
