I always being passionate about watches but unluckily couldn’t afford any basic brand watch. My first brand watch was Casio simple Analogue. Now i am planning for something stunning. Should i go for a Seiko Automatic green dial or Casio Edifice, Fossil and Bulova?

If you’re talking about Seiko Automatic or Bulova, I assume your budget is $200-500.

Casio Edifice, Fossil - definitely NO.

Seiko - also NO.

I’d recommend to look at second-hand pieces. You better own a proper higher-level brand that will give you real pleasure.

For example, have a look at Certina, Tissot or Hamilton.

If you are able to find a new piece for your budget, go for it.

However purchasing second-hand piece in good condition is completely usual for watch owners, so do not hesitate it.

Why not Casio or Fossil?

Fossil, a fashion brand, makes very questionable watches. Yeah, they sometimes might look attractive, but usually the mechanisms there are bad. Simply bad. They take cheap quality materials, cheap movement, which will not satisfy you at all.

Besides, you will not be able to sell them afterwards.
