I'm after a new watch. I finally think I've grown out of my Umbro cheapo one and want something more sophisticated.

The watch I really want is the Tag Heuer Basel Concept.



Seeing as I'm not made of money and it hasn't been released yet I'm looking at alternatives.

I'm not expecting a Tag as my budget is between £80-£140 but I love the styling and the chrono dials.

I'm after some recommendations. It has to be a decent make, fairly robust and look almost as good as the Basel concept. Any suggestions?

search for Seiko Chronograph. Seiko do some nice ones and they'll be in budget too.

Welcome. Look around - plenty to see. I'm sure that the Werners Original Flying Watch thread will have something for your budget too.

I have one of these and I really like it. I like technology, so the fact that this is solar and atomic appeals to me!
