Thank you. I purchased the IWC deployant for $400. Next purchase is the XS strap. I was pretty much maxed out at $6k for the watch and clasp. Any recommendations on how to sell a relatively new black strap?

Hi, you might consider keeping it to have a "full set" if and when you want to sell the watch later on. If you want to sell it, send me a private message. I'll be interested in buying it.

Of your choices, I would go with the IWC-- no question. To me, it's a better watch than the Hublot or Breitling. Other non-Rolex to consider are the GP World Timer and any of the JLC sport models. All of these may fall within your budget, used. I, personally, would take either the GP or JLC over Hublot&Brietling, and maybe the IWC. The one exception being the Navitimer.
