1601 0r 1803

Hi there chappies

A trickle of mid life is upon me and I was thinking of getting a nice gentlemen's watch. Nothing that reeks of nouve riche but of estates cars, dogs, and a nice spot of fox hunting.

Can anyone suggest some relatively understated and perhaps even rare DJ or DD in a bracelet? No looking a ton of quid but a decent price for a nice piece.

Any comments, suggestions or even direction on where to find this elusive piece of jewellery is very much appreciate.

Many thanks gents!

Great looking watch. Especially the 'doorstop' markers at 6 and 9.
