Smokersmith Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 What do you want to spend? Seiko 007 or 009, apparently they are the Ak47 of watches, and the next step up mechanically is high end like a Rolex submariner. I've had the 007 for a year and recently picked up the 009, they are both gorgeous watches and very robust. I don't spend a lot on watches .... I have the same model as the one on top and wear it all the time .....with a suit, and on the marsh. Bullet proof and massively practical. If it ever breaks, I'll get another like it.

Eyefor Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 ..so what model is this please? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickyh Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 (edited) Looks like a Seiko 7548 but I could be wrong. The ultimate 'Doner Watch' to replace broken automatic movments. I have one in my 6309 cushion watch, used for work when I dont wear my Omega Seamaster. Edited January 15, 2017 by mickyh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 ..so what model is this please? Thanks. Zoomed in it appears to be a Quartz, so it takes a battery that will require changing every year or couple years. It's VERY similar to the Seiko 009 that I posted above, which is also available with that same strap. Depends if you want a battery or automatic and also the price difference (I'm unsure of this sorry). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyKong Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 I got a Seiko 5 SNK795K last year as an everyday watch. Great value for an automatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wb123 Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Another seiko 5 user here. Every year I consider getting something a bit more refined, quite possibly a grand seiko. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosd Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 I didn't see a budget, but have a look at the watches by SInn, they are great watches also.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
