I always had a craving for a tank watch but I often always wear a diver for everything. I didn't want to splurge on a Cartier in case I was just going to chuck it in a drawer and not wear it. So I tested out a "Tank" with this square Ravel watch which cost £6.99. Glad to say that I enjoy the...

I love a cheapy :ROFLMAO: What's your favourite budget watch, why and where have you ended up taking it? I wrote a little waffle about mine below https://www.watchuseek.com/threads/an-ode-to-a-cheap-watch-a-review-of-the-limit-5447.5344060/#post-54066737

Watches are a hobby where we can spend almost as much money on accessories than the watches themselves. I'm talking about: Straps/bracelets Winders Watch boxes, display/travel cases Watch tools, timegraphers, etc Cleaning items (ex. Polywatch, Cape Cod polishing wipes) Anything else I might've...

Hello I am new to watches and know very little about them, I am wondering if this watch is a good buy. Also wonder how much should I pay for it or should I pass? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Seiko-5-Automatic-SNKL23/174331503782?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055359.m1431.l2649 Hope I'm...

Hi Guys, I know that the watch enthusiasts has been on the "Bronze" bandwagon for quite some time. However, I paid little or no attention to the bronze watch segment until I came across the Tudor Black Bay Bronze (especially the Bucherer Blue edition). As, at present, my budget doesn't permit...

I recently bought a mechanical Russian watch (sub $50); it keeps decent time (-1min a day). However, it has a cracked acrylic crystal. I am debating a sort of clear epoxy fix (if possible) or a replacement crystal. I have no experience in either vein. The crystal is of the box dome variety. I...

I guess the pickings are sparse here, but I'm willing to try. I can push towards $500. It should be new, and have a reputation in this forum. Analog, or digital, dressy or tough. Maybe some here would know what I can get at that price point. I do own a 34 mm Marathon Mariglo and a two Bulova...

Hey Y'all, been looking at some used Grand Seiko pieces on eBay and I was wondering if there are any budget Grand Seiko you would recommend?

Dear all, I have never paid much attention to Omega, mainly because the watch brand has never really caught my attention. The only watch that I've ever really looked at was the Omega Speedmaster Professional, but it just didn't appeal to my tastes, not to mention the costs of the watch. In an...

I'm looking for a nice dress watch, automatic. My budget is 200$ (very little wiggle room, maybe for delivery taxes, as I live in Romania, Europe). I would like a classic design, no-nonsense, a design that won't age. Looking for good build quality and movement. I would like it to be Swiss made...

If you had around 6K to spend on a watch what would you pick assuming your collection was reduced to zero. Theres lots of options at this price range so i'm interested in seeing what everyone would prefer.

Looking to spend 50 dollars or less on a new watch, I need it to be in good working order and presentable. I'm in high school and the debate season just started, and I need a new watch or two to put with a new suit. Thanks guys, Jared

I saw similar threads on small dress watches, affordable dress watches, or small affordable watches, but none on small affordable dress watches! So I turn to you - what are some good suggestions for small budget dress watches in the 36-39mm range, budget like around 200 and not a department...

I hope you are all enjoying a good evening and are in a very good mood to help a young man out. So I have been lurking in this forum for 2 years, doing some ocasional reading and becoming a bigger and bigger watches fan. The reason I don't participate as much in conversations here as I would...

Hi~ I buy and resell used watches on eBay. Many times I come across watches that are in bad shape cosmetically but still function properly internally. Usually the cystals are all scratched up, the steel case and bracelet is heavily scratched and scuffed... In general it is a mess. I would like...

No specifications and no right or wrong answers. Go! :-)

Hi watchuseek! My parents are buying me a watch as a graduation gift and have graciously allowed me to pick it out myself. None of us know a thing about watches so I've spent the last week lurking here and trying to learn more about watches. I'm looking for a "dress watch", but since this is the...

Hi, My parents are buying me a watch as a graduation gift and have graciously allowed me to pick it out myself. None of us know a thing about watches so I've spent the last week lurking here, reading the FAQ and guides on the side bar, and browsing ebay and chrono24. I'm looking for a "dress...

Hello, I am completely new to the forum and relatively new to the hobby of watch collecting. Recently I've become very interested in automatic watches. The watches that I am most commonly drawn to are homages for their classical look. Right now I'm torn between ordering an Alpha Gmt or a Rodina...
