Ideas
Done
- Dress
- £130: Green Orient Bambino, lovely posh dress watch, but maybe too much for everyday
- £160: Seiko SNXS79 (Dark grey/black dial, dressy, solid Oyster Perpetual homage) - didn't do this in the end
- NonBronze Pilot
- £120 San Martin Type B in the end
- Laco Type B perhaps? But may be tricky for sub £200 - couldn't find
- Mondaine
- Berny
- £78: Berny "Railway watch" AM138MS-L £78, https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004800723156.html (Automatic, MIYOTA 8215, silver, lume background, filled second hand bulm)
- £40: Date is windowed - but has non-filled second hand
- Basically there's no watch that has both the right second hand and a decent date window. I'd buy the £78 if there was no date!
- Getting 2nd hand elegant/thin 36mm - from Chrono24 for about £140
- Berny
- Vintage
- £200: Seiko Recraft SNKP27 £200, also SNKM27 - got it for £130 from US
- Pamphibian
- £250: Bronze: Tc-9 Depth Charge (NH35A, bronze, blue dial, Panieri-esque) - got for £125 from ebay
- £165: Vostock "Pambhibian" (VOSTOK AMPHIBIA (170548 BD SE1)) https://www.vostok-watches24.com/catalog/sammlermodelle-amphibia-170/2030/
Abandoned
- Bronze Pilot (San Martin, Steeldive, Tandorino) - got a Bronze pamphibian Tc-9, don't really want more than one
- Invicta stuff - it's a bit cheap - avoid the blue/gold mix
