I haven't seen one in person, but I actually like it on the photos. I would even buy one if it was cheaper.

Glad I could help. As suggested already by others, Hamilton is a really good choice for your budget.

Baltic uses chinese movements with less common features like micro rotors. I think this is not ideal in terms of serviceability. You should look for watches with ETA or Sellita movements. Those are affordable and so popular that every watchmaker can fix them.

Very nice and much more interesting than the obvious alternative: Submariner, Speedmaster and Datejust.

The Omega is probably the best build quality. The Santos is the most iconic design.

I own the Omega, so this would be my recommendation as well. It works for almost every occasion, except black tie events.

I think it says that you do your research. Both the SMP 300 and the Sinn 556 are highly recommended by many watch youtubers.

You have a dress watch, a everyday office watch, a diver and a do-anything-field watch. You are pretty much covered for any scenario. Sorry buddy, you did too well and now you have run out of occasions that would justify another purchase.

I am clearly not the target audience for these, but no thank you.

check the second hand market. the 403 can be found at a significant discount.

looks fantastic. I love how well-proportioned the subdials are.

If you tried it on and it looked good then it is now a unisex watch. It is much better to wear a smaller watch that fitd than an oversized "manly" watch that hangs over the side of your wrist.

Very cool. The pictures on the website really don't do it justice. It looks much better with natural lighting and on a wrist.
