Hello all,

I came across this wonderful forum while doing some research on buying a new watch . It's a wedding anniversary gift from my wife and she has left the choice on me as to what I would like to buy. I own an omega (OMEGA Seamaster Diver 212.30.44.50.03.001) which I only wear on special events. For the rest of the time I am wearing the fitbit versa. Her budget is roughly 400 USD. I was looking at a few brands which make quality watches such as Tissot, Seiko and lastly victorinox. I would be really grateful if you could help me out decide as to what I should get . Since I am residing in India there is an online store which sells genuine watches . The name of this website is www.ethoswatches.com and then there is www.amazon.in . I am 31 years old and I would prefer something which I can wear for all occasions. I have chosen a few watches which match what i am looking for. They are as follows:-

https://www.ethoswatches.com/product-victorinox-i-...

https://www.ethoswatches.com/product-victorinox-al...

Thank you

I live in a relatively small town so Ethos is the only store we have here . Metro cities like Mumbai or Delhi and other big cities in India have plenty of stores.Ethos is trusted India wide . People prefer buying from them as they only supply genuine products. lot of chinese knockoffs in the market these days .

I would be looking for a seiko sumo at that price point.



Mines Blue aka a blumo but it can be had in black and also some other limited edition colours.

Looks pretty good! Is it an automatic? I am still a newbie to this so please don't mind me asking!

Yes automatic.
Maybe also look at Hamilton watches (Amazon?).

Thank you! Will certainly do. I have seen so many watches today that my mind is confused as to what I should get!
