I think for a lot of people just owning one of the “classics” is a grail enough. A Rolex DJ or Omega Speedy can be found used for $5k-ish and finally getting to own one of those can be endgame for someone. Commonplace for rich watch nerds but really special for someone who can finally afford one.
A answer in the spirit of the question - a MR G. There’s a lot of G Shock enthusiasts out there and a $3,000 titanium G is the “ultimate” version of a the watch in the same way an Olive Day-Date or WG Pepsi might be for Rolex.
