Mens Watch Recommendations

[kaiser78]

I am looking to spend up to £500 on a men's watch. I am open minded about style / design but would prefer brand new.

Any recommendations ?

There can only be one - baume and mercier

I once considered paying £790 for a tag heuer watch that had been advertised at £1350 in store.

But I thought is the watch going to be any more accurate than a 50 quid watch? I reasoned not and bought a lorus for 50 quid. It tells me the time and day \ date.

Spending 500 quid on a watch is, imo, silly.

If it were a lot under under or a lot over I could think of a few good option!

Longines and Oris do stuff that I quite like in that price range.

Try a Rolex or a Breitling. Then say you'd like a cheap watch that costs 1/10 of the price.

If you're looking for summat reliable under £500 try citizen or Seiko.

I use the clock on my iPhone, look at the clock on my PC, or check the clock in the canteen. Even my car has a clock. Don't see the need for one really.

Longines do some good watches..... but tbh there are loads of decent watches at/near that price...

Go visit a few highstreet jewelers.... look at what you like.... try them on and Bobs your uncle.....

But remember ....... you should be able to get a huge discount on the list prices.... so don't limit yourself to just looking at £500 watches....
Markups on watches & jewellry is awesome...... find one you like and do 2 for 1 deal and get a matching Ladies model for the Mrs (a bit Howard & Hilda but she'll love you for it)....

Breitling

[milanbenes]

you won't get a Breitling for 500 quid

the Colt series starts at about 1500

for upto 500 guess you're looking at a high end Casio ?

Milan.
