So I sold all my watches and decided to only keep two. My everyday watch, my SD43(which I LOVE). And I need your help choosing my 2nd watch. It can be any brand. As long as it's under 5,000$ Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

hugs · 20 July 2017, 11:12 AM

I would get a nice SS Reverso at that price

slide13 · 20 July 2017, 11:15 AM

Hmm lot of good options.

SS Reverso would be appealing as previously mentioned.

Older DJ with holes case on elegant leather is always a favorite of mine, TT always a good option.

New DJ or OP for a dressy/sporty hybrid.

If you want something new and affordable Nomos does some great dress watches for god prices.

antoflo · 20 July 2017, 11:16 AM

I would get a pre owned IWC Portuguese or Rolex Datejust 36mm.

ericmli825 · 20 July 2017, 11:26 AM

I think the oyster perpetual 39 is perfect

Gold? Stainless? Strap? What have you looked at? What do you like?

GermanyMatt · 20 July 2017, 11:48 AM

Omega Aqua Terra?

RichM · 20 July 2017, 11:57 AM

Any of the OP's. Rhodium or blue, would be my choice of color.

run23 · 20 July 2017, 12:00 PM

+1 on the Reverso (if you can find one at that price, which I think you may be able to). That plus the Sea Dweller is an unimpeachable two watch collection.

I honestly don't know. I like the quality and look of IWC or maybe a Cartier tank on a leather strap.

Chadridv · 20 July 2017, 12:23 PM

I'm not a fan of the reverso. I just simply don't get it. Anyhow, I do really like the ultra thin Jaeger Lecoutre. The SS versions should be within the $5k mark.

I also really love the IWC Portuguese.

I'm not a fan of any Cartier watch.

It's not a traditional dress watch but the new DJ41 would make for a wonderful "suit" watch. The price is a little bit past budget, but the smooth bezel version preowned might be feasible.

meganfox17 · 20 July 2017, 12:26 PM

Seiko Presage 60 Anniversary SRQ 019J1 + Nomos Ahoi Atlantique + My Commission USD 100 = USD 5K

Tony64 · 20 July 2017, 12:26 PM

$5200 brand new retail from Cartier.

http://www.cartier.com/en-us/collect...olo-watch.html

Negotiate a 5% discount and you're under budget. Done.

You're welcome.

explodingtaco · 20 July 2017, 12:28 PM

Nomos?

No better dress watch for the money on the planet.

Yes, but it's not necesarily what first comes to mind when I think "dress watch".

Tony64 · 20 July 2017, 12:40 PM

Actually don't care for that Seiko for other reasons as well, but a dress watch it's not.

omitohud · 20 July 2017, 12:43 PM

I would get a 1803 DD on leather strap n call it a day. If u r patient, they r out there.

I blame it on the autoconnect.

Can be found for under 5K, you're welcome

Uppersouth · 20 July 2017, 01:12 PM

IWC Portofino Chronograph. $5,900 on strap. Can get a great discount anywhere and have it for under 5k.

michaelodonnell123 · 20 July 2017, 01:29 PM

This. Best looking dress watch Rolex ever made as far as I am concerned. Fluted bezel, no ugly cyclops and a beautiful leather strap.

Siglo6 · 20 July 2017, 01:35 PM

Beautiful watch!

droptopman · 20 July 2017, 01:41 PM

Nomos has some nice choices. DJ, OP, vintage DD on strap.
Pre owned JLC MUT would probably be my choice. Might be pushing 5K, but saw a very nice condition silver dial for sale not long ago at 5700$.

Yep.

Maybe this one??

Or this one.

Both under $3800 and worth much more. Great value with Nomos.
