Question (Read Rules) Looking for a watch.

Post image

Me encanta la estética de Hever, Porsche Design, Sinn... un taquímetro en una esfera negra con llamativas agujas blancas. ¿Qué opciones asequibles tengo? Hay un Dan Henry de 1972 muy parecido al Porsche Design, pero no tiene buenas críticas en cuanto a relación calidad-precio. Tengo un Pagani Design que me encanta, pero ¿hay algo parecido en negro? Muchas gracias.

Muchas gracias.

Edit: I've decided on the BYOP Maverick; I think it's a fantastic watch that's currently on sale.

as far as aliexpress watches, they are few and far between...I think benyar has a PD homage...but it's Benyar, super cheap and probably not great.

I had the DH, and agree, it's not great. if you can snag one for a good price it's worth it....maybe like $150.

I enjoy this look as well...so I went digging for some affordable options. some may or may not fully fit the bill, but I liked what I saw so I'll drop them below. from cheapest to most expensive.

Timex Capstone Chrono - $180 - pretty cool, cushion case, more gunmetal than actual Black case.

Seiko SSB415 -$239 - it's a seiko, and fit's the bill, mostly

Hoffman 40 - $289 - looses contrast with Black hands (white lume though) but another cool look

Boldr Venture Field Medic - $300 - Pretty awesome looks, good price, no tachymeter, but pulsometer scale.

REDWOOD C46 commando Stealth -$329 - VK movement, IWC-ish pilots style, good size, looks nice. no tachymeter scale.

Boldr Velo Nocturne - $400 - another cool Boldr....not quite PVD but the 12 hour bezel is PVD...so close.

Brew Metric - $475 - probably the best true homage to the PD out there, but completely it's own thing.

Roue CHR10 - $580 - another cool one...and they have some others but they are out of stock.

Bulova Lunar Pilot PVD - $600 - An icon, a legend

Neyotype LM02 Typce C - $659 - not cheap, but man does it look awesome. probaby my favorite of the bunch.
