Not seen a Harold Pinchbeck in the metal, but have a leather strap from their supplier. Top notch.
Hi all
Anyone got any possibles for a 36mm watch with blue dial? The Oyster Perpetual would be perfect, but is a bit expensive. I'm considering this:
but I'm sure there are other options out there.
Would I would like: automatic, sapphire crystal, new or second-hand is fine
What I wouldn't like: divers, other complications
Any ideas?
Ta in advance

Whats the budget?
I got my Seamaster 120m was under £500 and 36mm with a Blue dial. Its a lovely little watch! I believe it also comes as Automatic, mine is Quartz.

I really like the Pinchbeck. I have a cream dialed version with a matte finish case, pretty good build quality.
If you're up in Lincoln the shop is well worth dropping by. They also have their watches for sale / on display at the shop inside Lincoln Catherdral.
I second the Omega suggestion, but will suggest a midsize SMP. Available in both bond and electric blue, auto and Quartz.
Laco do a 36mm with a blue dial, quite dressy, presumably comfortably under £1,000. Will try to remember it's name....
....here we are, the Philadelphia. £762 from the estimable Page and Cooper. 2824.

After much searching back in 2009 (!) I went for the Omega Aqua Terra. Criteria was quite similar to yours.
It seems my photos have vanished from the thread at the time so here are 2 re-uploaded below. Not great quality, but hopefully gives you an idea!
Ticks all requirements: 36mm automatic / blue dial / sapphire crystal / automatic requirements
Second hand DateJust?
Some good ideas - thanks guys
