...in gold, on a bracelet, and must be new and available fom the high street (or reasonably quickly from elsewhere).

I've been asked for suggestions for this, a 60th birthday present. Buyer was looking at Accurist and Rotary, the latter of which I've not completely dismissed, but I cannot help thinking there a 'watchier' brands out there.

Pointed her in the direction of Longines (it'll be quartz for that price) and Oris (auto'), both of which will have to be S/S with gold plated detailing. Obvious suspects (Ebel, Rado, TAG) out of budget or nothing suitable in the range.

So, PH massive, you've never failed me before: What have I missed?

PS. "watchier", as in more watchy, may not be a real word...

Same problem myself, but for sporty there's the Omegas, classy I guess would be the Cartiers but apart from that it's whatever you can find rootling about the shops. Have you considered a smaller mans watch? The only 'watch' watchy watch I could find was one of the new Sinns but that's outside your timeframe. Bang on the money but Ti not Au!

Raymond Weil Tango.

Slightly over budget, but rather nice looking.
