I’m looking for a versatile 36 mm watch, black dial, on a bracelet. Not too casual, not too dressy. Budget is up to around 1000USD.
If money was of no concern I suppose I’d get something like an early Rolex Explorer. I even tried my luck on getting a Smiths Everest, but never managed to click through the store on time. Perhaps it’s for the best, as I can’t stop feeling it’s kind of an homage.
I also like the Sinn 556 and the Nivada Super Antarctic but those are 38mm, and I want something smaller.
Traska commuter is on my shortlist, too, but there’s no black dial option currently.
I’ve also been looking at pre owned quartz Aqua Terras, but I’m not sure if I want to pay that much for a standard quartz movement. And perhaps the watch is just a little too blingy for my taste.
So… What other watches would you recommend?
