    Salmon dial suggestions

    Evening all I’ve been lusting after salmon dialled Patek’s lately but, as normal, caviar taste and a pizza face.

    I really like the Breitling Datora, but at 42 it’s too large for me.

    So are there any salmon dialled watches say 37-40mm at the sensible end of the financial spectrum I’m overlooking?

    Often tempted but never yet bought a salmon dial, Seiko made one (can't recall the reference) but this has recently caught my eye.

    Quite a few on eBay at around the £950 mark but ideally I would like the price to be a bit friendlier, just in case it's not for me.

    I picked up one of these on Kickstarter...



    Nice, but a bit too dainty for me so it was flipped pretty quickly.

    Not fully salmon but this came to mind after a recent search for similar piece, Longines 1945 heritage

    That’s not salmon at all….it’s supposed to be weathered brushed metal. What about an old Airking?

    Both Baltic salmon watches are really pleasingly designed and go for over retail. It’s mad they don’t make any more.

    This is a bit more mid market but it catches my eye. I think I like it but it keeps me guessing

    I'm sure Rolex have a salmon dialled DJ or OP in their back catalogue?
