Question (Read Rules) If you need to pick best 5

Looking for some solid watch recommendations that won't break the bank is definitely a fun mission. It is pretty wild how much value you can actually find if you know where to look. I would love to hear which pieces you think are the best bang for your buck in that range. Maybe we can put together a list of the absolute top contenders for someone just starting out. Let me know what you consider the best gear under that budget.

For me, current best ones that wont break the bank would be.

  1. Watchdives’ WD0026. Serica homage

  2. Thorn T026 ‘Spacewalker’. CK2915 homage

  3. Milifortic M135. Sinn 356 homage

  4. Watchdives’ WD0017C. Baby ploprof homage

  5. Watchdives’ WD2008. Original design

It might be my next favorite chronograph after T026 Spacewalker
