Modern watch? Check
Since a Rolex Day-Date is out the question (unless things suddenly change financially!), I've been casting around for rather less expensive options, the Tissot being one, and also there are couple of Hamilton Jazzmasters which I quite like. Plus the new(ish) Breitling Transocean, though that's the wrong side of £3k still and not many used ones around.
The Tissot is a lovely watch, though.

Absolutely. I had a firm plan in my head but it didn't make a lot of sense, especially when you consider the prices of Nomos these days. They are stunning watches and a little different.downer wrote:Wise indeed.
