[Request] Looking for a field watch I can dress down (alien.top)

Hi, so my career has recently changed and I would benefit from a durable watch with a nice power reserve. I've looked a lot on my own but thought you folks might know more than I do. I'm specifically looking for a black dial that I can somewhat dress down, or in other words isn't "tactical".

What I've found that I like so far: Hamilton Khaki Murph 38mm Seiko TiCTAC SZSB006 Sinn BB56 Longines Spirit 37mm Black Dial

My wrist size is 6.5in and my budget is 1,000 USD. Thanks for any help you can give :)

That is absolutely gorgeous, I had a problem with Christopher Ward watches for a while because of their plain text "Christopher Ward" on the dial but that logo is much nicer on the eyes. Love it, thanks a lot.

I still don't love their flag logo on a lot of their watches (but better than their previous logo), but for some reason it looks especially good on this watch, I guess because it matches the simple style of the printed numerals on a field watch.

Yeah something about this watch is definitely enamoring me lol, the case is so extremely sleek. Reminds me a bit of the Lorier Falcon. Shame I don't like the textured dial on the falcon.

Or the acrylic crystal on the Lorier that scratches if you look at it. I know some people are fine with crystal scratches or dealing with polywatch to buff them out, but that's a deal breaker for me.
