The polar explorer is clear winner for me. I know I can rely on it for many years to come without worries

Zenith defy was my choice with bracelet...incredibly comfortable on the wrist and looks killer.

I have way too many dress watches. So I’d go for the IWC, otherwise it would be the Cartier Drive.

Agree with this . Have had my P serial (2000) polar 16570 on for a week now and it is better than +1 sec/day, super comfortable, and a joy to stare at. For reasons I don’t understand, still relatively affordable/reasonable compared to the rest of the Rolex preowned prof line market. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

I agree- in that price range, for the Exp 2 16570 is an easy win

I'm personally not a big fan of any of those you show but I'd probably take the Cartier among them. In that price range for a one and only watch, my choice would be a Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39mm white dial.

I'd get a 5 digit Sub LN date !!!
If a date model can't be located I'd be open to the no date reference... |

in that price range I'd either go for a grand seiko GMT or an explorer I/OP/datejust (I suspect both used and new options for each of those).
if you're limiting to stictly the ones you listed then for me definitely the cartier extra flat. |

That Zenith open-faced with bracelet is pretty nice actually, I like it way better than the ingenieur which I find a bit dull.

I agree with the other guys that’s a Grand Seiko for my money!
If not a JLC MUT moon preowned or possibly exp II black.

If only your listed choices, I'd go for one of the Zenith. Otherwise, I'd go for a Grand Seiko most likely, Good Luck

If you "don't mind" dressy, that Cartier is pure class.
