rose gold & leather, any interesting ideas chaps?

[LaurasOtherHalf]

ok, i think i'm going to resign myself to buying a second watch to wear sporadically as an alternative to my daily rolex datejust in stel/white gold.

for those who hate to read OPs, here's the bullet points;

• no huge things!
• budget ideally around a grand, though could go higher or lower
• no cheap tat!

anything else, i'm open to suggestion.

i actually saw a boluva whilst on holiday but it didn't have a leather strap & although a funky rectangle shape looked quite good, however i couldn't find an awful lot about the company on the internet so had no idea on whether they fell into the cheap tat catagory.

ideal spec would be something in rose gold with a black or dark face & a tan leather strap.

I've got no problem with Bulova and as a company they have a very interesting history.
That said, I don't know much about their watches since the old ETA-powered Super Seville models. I've actually got a very nice one in yellow gold (plate) with a nice brown leather strap somewhere.

Weren't they bought by Citizen? Presumably they're mostly using Miyota movements now?

[LaurasOtherHalf]

No idea, there doesn't seem to be much info around on them.

If there's a Bulova you like I wouldn't be worried by it. They were never bad watches, and some of the vintage Accutrons (especially the 666 foot diver) are really cool watches with cool history.

Bulova is a US brand, owned by Citizen these past lot of years now.
