Daily on strap

I’m looking for a clean time and date watch on a strap for under $10k to wear as a daily. Leaning towards Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Date but would like to see if anyone has suggestions.

I have been thinking about paneria again, but never seem to pull the trigger. I also like iwc and jlc, always gotta go used on all 3 brands

Although it doesn’t have a date, I’d highly suggest taking a look at the JLC Geophysic 1958. It has the latest technology (ceramic bearings, shock resistance, etc), 100m water resistance. Plus, mine is dead-on accurate. The best part is that it walks the line between being a sport piece and a dress piece depending on the strap choice.

It has been my daily wear for a while now and it is serving that purpose beautifully.

Agreed, I rotate this special JLC with my SD4K, based on daily activities.

I like the JLC Master Control Date, especially the black-dial variant, and I prefer it over the Master Ultra Thin Date as I want the date at the 3 position.

My basic time and date watch on a strap is a Patek 3998P. The yellow gold variant can be had for 10k. If the going gets rough I use an IWC Mark XV.

Kinda hard to go wrong with a Cartier imho. Change strap colors to match your style / suit / jeans, etc. If you're more sport-minded, Panerai, and again various straps that meets your style needs.

I like this, and there's the rose gold version on Davidsw for just under 10k.
