Decided to buy myself a new watch and have set a budget of around £2,500. I already have a TAG Kirium F1 and a Breil Ducati which is my everyday watch, so looking for something a bit more expensive.

At the moment, the choice seems to be looking at;

TAG Monaco Gulf (2nd hand obviously)

Omega Seamaster 300M Diver

Omega Speedmaster HB-SIA CO-AXIAL GMT CHRONOGRAPH

to me, the TAG seems a little more special, but would welcome other's input and suggestions.

I a umming and ahhing right now about a "jeans watch" and have to decide between a Monaco and one of these:



Never owned a B before but my little bro has one and it always looks substantial enough.

I think I'll go with the B, but the TH is appealing.

You'd be hard pushed to get a Solar Impulse for that money.

I'd go vintage. You won't look like one of the herd and you won't get hammered on depreciation. You might even make a bob or two.

Try and 321 cal. Speedmaster (with original box and papers for that money). Or a Breitling 765 Co-pilot. Or an Omega sm300. Or a Rolex 1675 GMT (Might get lucky).....there are dozens to choose from.
