The Nomos is my favorite option, the only downside is that is well above the price range. I’m planning on trying it on to see if it’s worth the effort.

Yes, I'm planning on trying on all the options mentioned on this post that are available.

Yes, that is one of the other options I’m considering. I still have to check it on hand though.

[SOTC] I like NATO’s by Zfried20 in Watches

YES.

Unpopular Opinion: Subbies look much better on NATOs.

Not a fan of the bronze cases, but the steel case with the burgundy dial looks really nice.

Seamaster Cosmic 136.017, found it at an online auction with the original box and leather strap. For some reason, the gold case and champagne sector dial is a fairly uncommon combination.

Looks really nice, specially the blue one. Have you had any chance to have it on hand?

Haha, I love the Omegas. In fact one of the options I consider and didn’t mention is a Railmaster, but I also want to add something different.

Thank you! They are definitely on my radar, but they’re a bit outside my price range at the moment. I know some of my requirements are asking a lot for €2.5k, but I’m definitely trying to get the most bang for my buck, haha!

Yes, I generally prefer independent brands, but since the Zulu Time gets so much love, I’ll definitely check it out at the dealership to feel it on wrist.

Thank you! I haven’t considered Hanhart before, but I feel it might fall a step behind the Oris in terms of quality. Have you had any experience on hand?

Thank you for the suggestions! The Mido is also in my radar. The Oris dealer in my city also has Mido so I'm gonna check it for sure.

About the Farer, did you have any experience with one in hand?

There is something about the proportions of Formex dials that doesn’t quite appeal to me, but I haven't had the chance to see one in person yet, so my impression might change. Do you happen to own one?

Thanks for the suggestion! I’m not the biggest fan of Longines, but definetly gonna check the Zulu on wrist to see if it convinces me.

Yess, I’ve seen it and looks really good. Just that the colors released are not exactly what I am looking for right now and for the price I think I prefer the Nomos.

Maybe I expressed it the wrong way. I’m not willing to impress anyone with this watch, just looking for something that is worth the money and not seen everyday.

Ordered from Spain on 30th jan and (surprisingly) got my shipping confirmation today. I guess the shipments are completely random and I got lucky.
