Hi All,

I am currently trying to decide on an everyday type watch to stop me wearing my IWC Aquatimer Chrono too often. I have seen three watches that I like but all are very different, therefore I would like to gauge opinion of what you guys think of them and this may help in my decision making process. Any other suggestions are welcome but I like the idea of having something that is not too obvious or mainstream. Budget no more than £400.

Here are the three:

1. Ollech & Wajs Flieger Chronograph – Valjoux 7733 -

Second watch on the page.

2. AS Automatic Wrist Alarm

Fifth watch down

3. Ollech & Wajs Automatic Chronograph

Tenth watch down


Thanks Jules.

Thanks for all of the replies.

I am starting edge away from the O&W Military Chrono (no.1) based on what Tertius has said about the size, thinking about it it may be a little too small. I still like the other two but without seeing them in the flesh it is always going to be a risky proposition, the AS watch although ugly is different and rare, but I am not sure if it would be a good everyday watch.

I've had a quick look at the Grovana watches and although they look fine they are not my cup of tea.

Any more suggestions / opinions welcomed.

Jules.
