sensibly sized field watch recommendations please
Hi - I'm in the market for a sensibly sized field watch, happy with any price up to about £1,000, but ideally I'd like change out of £500. It needs to be worth whatever it costs.
I like G10 watches and the PRS-10 is of interest; I also like the 36mm Smiths Everest. I'm agnostic about quartz or auto, but I insist on good accuracy and reliability. The CWC G10 would be a serious contender were it not for the stupid price - I'm not paying £200 for what's clearly a £50 watch, although I've always liked it.
The 38mm Hamilton Khaki is probably the front runner at the moment, although even that's a bit on the big side. I'd say ~ 36mm is ideal but there don't seem to be many options. For reasons past my understanding, most 'enthusiast' watches these days are stupidly large.
I'm not a collector, I'm after a watch to wear and it'll need to take a battering, so robust build and water resistance are a must. I normally wear a G-Shock 5600, but I'm after an analogue watch with a little bit of vintage charm.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Alex
Quartz with sweeping seconds
How about a MWC GG-W-113? It has a quartz movement with a sweeping second hand, which is pretty cool.
