Looking to buy my first nicer watch in january to celebrate surviving my rather intense work schedule in december. Having fallen into the watch-youtube rabbit hole I'm not even sure I can call these pieces "nicer" but the ones I am liking at the moment are the Hamilton Khaki Field Auto 42mm, 42mm Murph and the Longines Conquest black dial. Looking for a daily driver that I can use for the next 10+ years. Is that even realistic in this price point?

Would also love recommendations in this price point for a big wristed feller.

As some have said, almost any watch can be a “lifetime watch”.

I have a couple $200 Seikos that are 20 years old which I’ve worn the heck out of. Still ticking away. Still wear them today, even after getting into “luxury” watches.

Get it from a reputable brand, get something you like the look of, and wear it lots.

Do you service the old Seikos often?

I’ve gotten my SKX009 serviced once. Never got the SNZF17 serviced. Both still running perfect.
