[Recommendation Request] 1st Luxury Watch (alien.top)

Hey everyone. 1st post here and would appreciate some help.

I went through the search function but couldn’t find anything similar to my asking.

I was looking to buy my first entry or mid-level luxury ( price brackets confuse me ) with a sub 5-6 k budget.

My conditions: it has to be new and something i could wear daily.

Dimensions : 38-42 mm and bracelet preferred.

What i like from a looks perspective is Tag Heuer Aquaracer 200 Auto 40 mm and Zenith Defy Skyline which seems like it’s totally out of my budget.

Idc about resale value or investment. I just want to wear the watch.

Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry if this kind of discussion doesn’t warranty a new post by i am a bit excited.

Tissot/Hamilton

I already have a Tissot. I was thinking of something more premium.

You're in the same spot as me then. I've tried looking for Certinas which are a brand that's like in between Tissot and Hamilton but not quite where Longines or Tag Heuer are either yet. It's a sort of middle ground. Problem is they're hard to find. I know Teddy Baldassarre sells some if you're in US. And here where I live you're meant to order them online only.

Still, a more...practical alternative could do so I found Victorinox to be that. But neither of the two brands has anything that quite gets to me style wise.

Another option is a vintage Omega but I fear buying vintage watches because they often arrive Damaged On Arrival
