First of all thanks to the PH massive I bought a watch about a month ago in this thread

https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

My next target is a green watch.

Must be small 36 to 38 maybe 39mm diameter.

Probably a diver but open to offers.

Can't afford Rolex money, like quartz but could go to a Christopher Ward or Oris if right.

Like polished cases, like a watch that sits well with a rubber strap as well as a bracelet.

Over to you, many thanks.

Thank you for the suggestions.

There is a new release coming from Christopher Ward that has caught my eye which ticks my boxes. These being 38mm case, date at 6 o'clock, chamfered date window, some polishing on the case not all brushed, applied not printed logo, sunburst dial.

The plan is to let it come into stock, sign up to their emails and use a discount code when available, so probably a 4 to 6 month wait.

OP here

Love those Ball watches, but can't wear them at 41mm or 43mm if I could have that between 36mm and 38mm I would buy it right now.

This is my problem why can't watch manufacturers build a 41mm also at 38mm? If Omega built a green wave dial Seamaster at 38mm without the helium valve, 100m to 200m resistance and a 1mm thinner for me job jobbed. It is frustrating that size has become such a manly thing.
