I agree, but to me it’s not surprising. I have two Orient Bambino’s One with a green dial, and one with the Pearl white. They are my “everyday go to’s” even though I have a couple of carriers and some Longines and Tissot which are significantly “more watch!” There’s something about their elegant functionality, at their price point, which gives me a certain peace if not joy! I’m just not as relaxed when I’m wearing my Cartier’! Their Kamasu dive watch looks and feels really good on the wrist, and is on my list. I own a Hydro Conquest which is a bit higher spec, but I actually prefer the fur. finish and size of the Kamasu. Orients got it going on!

I been thinking about the Seiko Green Alpininst. Seiko makes many watches. Many are good looking. The Green Alpininst I believe is a watch Men like looking at. It is a steel watch that looks like a classic. Not too dressy but dressy enough. It is not a diver but a field watch. But has the strength of a diver. It is original looking with out being a Submamariner clone. It is a solid watch which people can afford without feeling they settled for less. It is unique. There are few watches that you look at that you admire it's looks after bought it. I even like it better than the Grand Seiko watches. That is why it came in second in your survey. I own several vintage Omega watches. I like vintage Omega watches. But the Watch which is not over priced is a watch brings me pleasure. It is one those rare watches that come by that you know is a winner!

The Bulova Lunar Pilot is an amazing watch that, IMO, often doesn't get the recognition it deserves. Maybe it's looked down on for being a quartz watch, and I am certainly guilty of thinking that at one point. But the 262 kHz movement is an impressive piece of engineering. The second hand sweeps more smoothly than even a 36000 bph Seiko or Zenith movement, almost approaching Seiko Spring Drive level smoothness. The accuracy of ±10 seconds _per year_ is mind boggling. You can even easily adjust (using the pushers) the positioning of the central seconds and 1/10th second hands if it ever starts to go out of alignment. The 43mm version is still a fairly big watch, but will definitely work on a much larger range of wrist sizes than the original 45mm version. And it is all put together with better fit and finish than usually found in its price range. Overall, it's a much better "budget Speedmaster" than the _actual_ budget Speedmaster.

I concur with the Tissot PRX - but would prefer in white dial - seen it in person and instantly fell in love with it.

I purchased the exact Seiko Alpnist early last year (or was it late 2022?) without thinking much. Very happy to see how highly rated it is. It's my daily watch if Im not using my apple watch.

👌 congratulations to the winner. I got the Tissot PRX Bucherer limited edition on my wrist, and I really love that watch.

Love it. I always thought the last two were my choices and of course I have the PRX so I expected it to win

Some of my favorites under 1K: Citizen Tsuyosa, Bulova lunar moon watch, Hamilton Khaki Field, and I like that Jorg Gray that Obama wore quite often.

I loved this show, great result. I am not a fan of the PRX but I can understand how it won. I was cheering for the Lunar Pilot and the Alpinist 💪🏻

This is crazy! The last two watches have been the two watches I've been eyeballing for the last 6 months or so. I've had some unforeseen bills come my way recently so haven't been able to pull the trigger. But I guess I'm not the only one interested in them!

Because it was mentioned in this video, I looked up a brand I had never heard of before. Seagull Watches are made in China, but are they any good? They have some interesting designs on their website and what seem like too good to be true offerings. A sub $3000 Tourbillon? What am I missing? Are these watches worth considering?

I don't watch sports, but this was amazing. Finally, a bracket I care about.

My tissot has been back for warranty work 2 times this year. Losing time, and second time the minute hand was binding with the seconds hand.

Wasn’t the Seiko Alpinist discontinued in 2022?

I would go for the alpinist, a legendary affordable watch. i dont like the tick tick of powermatic movement and the prx is like a revisit design, which would fade over time.

I have The Seiko Prospect Chrono, Tissot PRX and the Seiko 5 GMT Batman. I have barely worn anything but the Seiko "saitona" Prospect since getting it. Love it.

What strap was the Hamilton Khaki Auto on? Looks amazing but never seen that strap on the auto before?
