I like (well love to be honest) movado. Not that common, can go with almost any event, classy and swiss! I am not sure whether you will find anything that fits your need but maybe have a look at it? The movado line is extremely expensive (to me that is) and starts around $500 for their museum series; I have an esq and don't like wearing it :razz: (afraid it will get scratched since it doesn't have sapphire glass unlike the non-eqs movados).

While on amazon I stumbled across these sharp looking and inexpensive dive watches from Sturhling.

Great price, and style but the case still seems a tad too large for my wrists :-(

I've had a Momentum Deep 6 with the rubber strap for a bit over two years now. It's my daily wear watch, but I've been without it far a couple weeks as I had to send it back for a battery replacement and servicing; $35 plus the shipping to send it to them in Vancouver. They reseal and pressure test it as part of the deal and give you two more years warranty. A pretty good deal. Mine still looks great and shows no real wear and tear marks despite the daily use in less than gentle conditions. Great watch and reasonably priced.

wow beautiful and affordable if I hadent have just bought one of the other watches I wold have bought 2 of those.

Can't give much advice on what to buy but I would steer clear of Breitling. I bought a Super Ocean a couple of years ago and have had a couple problems with it. First it keep slow time, it cost me $60 to send it to Ontario to the only authorized shop in Canada for repairs. Then last year, I twisted the crown right off. Again another $60 to ship, they suggested to get it fully serviced and cleaned while it was there, that was $600. I could have saved on some of the shipping if I bought it locally. If I spend that kind of money on a watch again, it won't be a Breitling. It is rated for 1500 m but I don't dive so that means very little to me.

I purchased 2 Breitlings (Crosswind and a Wings Automatic) around 1998, my Crosswind got serviced a few years ago ($650.00) that was the only problem I had, the bezel got seized, too much salt water, I think, used it for diving, it got stolen 2 years ago, insurance gave me back 9700.00, went looking at the new Breitlings didn't like them, they got to be huge in size, decided to switch to a Rolex Daytona, instead.

I don't think the newer Breitlings are made as well as the older Breitlings.

I just had the Wings automatic, serviced a couple of years ago, needed a full cleaning
