That’s what she said.
Really?To find a sport/everyday watch having:
-Automatic Movt.
-Stainless Steel case and bracelet.
-Between 34 and 38 mm.
-Sapphire Crystal.
-Screw down crown.
Under 2K and not looking like a Rolex or AP!
You nailed it.The 34-38mm is the killer requirement. $2K also limits your choices.
Without accounting for the price part, there is:
- Tudor Black Bay 36
- Omega Aqua Terra (38mm)
- Longines Spirit (37mm)
- Sinn 556
- A whole bunch of microbrands riffing on the style of older Rolex watches
- Oris 65 (smaller sizes)
- Various Christopher Ward models
- Hamilton Khaki range
- Certina 38mm diver
I don't think the Khaki Field auto has a screw down crown thoughReally?

When you're planning an expedition, your essential equipment is reliable, resilient, functional and compact. At 38mm, this watch is punching above its weight when it comes to military inspired features. Bold looks, a rugged and robust case and strap and a movement that won't let you down.

True.I don't think the Khaki Field auto has a screw down crown though
You're right! I thought they included the screw down crown with the new releases.I don't think the Khaki Field auto has a screw down crown though
I agree! The size is even more killer than the price!The 34-38mm is the killer requirement. $2K also limits your choices.

Smaller watches are indeed getting back in style, and they’re here to stay. At a time where many watch brands are shaving a few millimeters off their timepieces to embrace the enchanting vintage size, dive watches don’t have to look like giant nautical clocks on the wrist anymore.

Glycine also has the Combat series in 36mm.
It is a cracking watch and does tick majority of the boxes for the OP. Unless a person is a professional diver don't think the average Joe needs a screw down crownYou're right! I thought they included the screw down crown with the new releases.
