Obviously $5M is a lot of money, but for a lot of middle class people like myself this is attainable in a lifetime after saving for a while. Curious what each person’s choice would be for a “grail watch” that isn’t ridiculously expensive.

That's a great budget to throw at something pre-loved.

Easy choice would be an Omega Seamaster 300 or Speedmaster. Maybe look a little harder for a Heuer Monaco or Cartier Santos.

I'd probably try and take my chances and get a foot in the door with a Rolex. Oyster Perpetual or Air King.

It's even easier to split the budget between two that aren't quite grails but are still quite good(ex: used Tudor Black Bay & Oris Big Crown Pointer Date), but I'd be here all day listing those.
