Cartier Santos or a real Speedy.

I would say Premier League is the easiest league to follow since it’s the most available and marketed one.
Pick a team you like and watch all their games. Pre-game conferences, post-game conferences, interviews, there is a lot of substance to make you fall in love with a team.
Since the PL is such a competitive league you will enjoy watching most of the games, especially teams that are close to the team that you support in the rankings. If your team is in European competition you watch those games during weekdays Tuesday-Thursday. Other than that the League games are usually on the weekends with some being played on Fridays and Mondays.
Interesting teams to watch right now would be Arsenal, Newcastle and City from the PL. They play really good football, have a lot of youth that are promising and they are doing really good in England as well as in Europe. This is not a bias opinion since I’m a Man U fan and I would never suggest you to watch this club considering the level of football for the past decade.
My suggestion is and will always be Seiko.
Everyone, despite the value of their collection, own a Seiko. It’s a lot of watch and history for the money. If you eventually get stuck with this hobby you will always be able to ”upgrade” your first Seiko to a much superior Grand Seiko and it will feel amazing.
If you don’t want a Rolex I would say go for a Tudor Blackbay or a Pelagos. If you want something more dressy I would say a Cartier Santos.
Perfect collection imo but I would add a Submariner if you ever have a change of heart.
If you like smaller watches the Tudor Prince at 34-36mm is at a good price range. Also it’s solid gold in the bracelet, bezel and crown. Instead of wrapped gold you get real 18k throughout for around $2-2,5k.
If the Tudor Royal had better typography on the dial it would be a no brainer for a two tone.
I have a Seiko 5 from the 60's. It belonged to my late grandfather that died at the age of 23, before my father himself was born (still in the womb). It is in extremely good condition as it was kept in a box until a few years ago when I received it. Luckily, out of 7 grandchildren I was the one to have it and I would like to believe that it is in the right hands, being the watch enthusiast I am. However, it does have a dent on the side which is the damage it received during the collision that initially ended his time on earth. I never met him, neither did my father but it still holds a lot of sentimental value for me.
