  • Recommendations for an everyday watch under $1.5k?

    Hi all, newbie here just stepping into the world of watches.

    Got myself a Longines Master Series, and getting a Rolex Date Just in the coming weeks.

    Now am thinking of getting an everyday watch under $1.5k?
    Will be stepping out into the outside world soon after 10 years in the green well. =)
    So need a good watch that will complement the corporate/executive look and not overly expensive.

    Not sure if this is the appropriate forum to post though, pardon me mods if i posted in the wrong forum.

            actually i did thought of them before, but not sure if my budget can afford a Ball?

            so for now i am leaning towards an Epos or even a Seiko..
            however i am scouring the sales threads , see can find any treasures a not (even if i need to stretch my budget)

                      No problem bro. But as for the Engineer II 40mm, it will gonna stretch ur budget a little bit more. I just got one a month ago, is a awesome timepiece for an everyday watch.
