Reading a few threads this morning about affordable watches.....I have been drawn to the look of Railmaster/Seamaster styled watches. Giving the watch box a good once over as the WIS is more of a dress watch than a Diver or Pilot. My box scan pointed out a glaring fact. NONE of my dress watches have a black dial. This must be remedied.
Before retiring for the evening I did a quick search of my go to brand, Orient, and the Bambino V1 was a start point. Since you forum guys are fantastic at suggesting watches that if given a feature list can suggest, here goes:
PS: Omega is not an option.
Black dial silver case around 40mm
Markers or 3 6 9 12 combination. Markers MUST have that iconic thin triangular shape
Date complication
Hands....I like the pointy arrow style of the Seamaster
Some lume is preferred but not a deal breaker if absent. Bambino mentioned is none lumed and hands not arrowheaded
Auto movement
Budget <$300
Anxious to see what is out there that I am unaware of
