Good watch brands

She’s now just said she thinks it’s probably too bling-y for me!

For me too, but I wont comment on looks as thats a personal thing.
You haven't got any bad watches on your list, buy the one you like the look of.

Ahaha. It’s a gorgeous watch mate. I just showed Mrs Back and she told me not to take the piss so I’m guessing that’s a bit more than the first three I posted!

just a "bit" :)

I'd go pre-owned myself which would negate that...

Have you considered the size of the watch?

Breitling watches tend to wear big on the wrist (44mm), and don't tuck under a shirt sleeve easily.

Not a fan of Steel and Yellow Gold personally, and that dial is way too busy with its oversized gold roman numeral markers.

[For Ref: I have a 7.5 inch wrist size, and I wouldn't consider any watch over 40mm or 13mm in height]

I like the navitimer and the chronospace. That's it for me breitling wise.

A new (and Final) option she has just text me based on what I say I like:

View attachment 23558

View attachment 23559
It’s not new (2007 production year) but again says it comes with original box and papers. It’s not cheap by any means but it does look nice.

Any expert eyes to tell me it’s a shit knock off?

Liking this! Where is it from?

Yeah I can’t wear anything under a 42mm. I’m 6’ 4” and 90kg and have fairly (toned/muscled?) forearms. my Marq Golfer is 45mm with 15mm in height and sits fairly well.



Also I know what you mean about the shirt but I’ve just semi-retired and binned all but 3 or 4 shirts (weddings/funerals) off. So it’s probably going to be worn with short sleeve or rolled up sleeves.

Massively appreciate your comments though and Mrs Back also thinks it’s too busy so I’m back to the two Tags.

I knew I shouldn't have looked in this thread/rabbit hole, my grail watch would probably be a JLC and only a slight stretch from the Moonwatch... and would meet all your Polo playing needs...

Eye watering prices for some of these watches, good luck to those of you who enjoy them and can afford them.

I'm just happy with a cheap Sekonda and a tray of chips and curry.
