TAG Heuer Aquaracer Solar is pretty much a one watch collection that good for almost everything, unless if we're on the budget then I suggest Citizen Promaster Dive BN0167-50H, it's beautiful shaded grey, it's solar, it's bracelet, it's not over 450 Pounds. Pretty much beater.

@wristopia4101Ай бұрын
It's much bigger than an explorer for one thing (41mm v 38.5mm) so yes, it is much more like an OP (which is still smaller) even without the 3/6/9. I would say its the most like a Rolex of all watches in many ways. They really should do a brushed three fold clasp without a date. It's nothing like an aquaterra to wear IMO. The Aquaterra's are so thick and heavy.

Got my Sinn 556a RS on today as I have done since I picked it up last week from your friends over the road in Argyle Arcade at James Porter. I’d always liked this watch but seeing it in the metal for the first time really sealed the deal for me. Such a good watch and still very good value for money I think.

Re: the Aquaracer. My Seiko Prospex "Air Diver" SBDN001 watch is titanium and solar powered, and far more affordable than a TAG. Has worked flawlessly for more than 10 years (but the rechargeable battery will need replacing within 5 years probably). I don't need to baby it, so it does get used for swimming, kayaking, hiking, travelling etc. It is grab and go for work if my automatics need setting. The scratches on the case and band add character and the crystal doesn't have a single scratch on it (yet!). The shade of blue in the dial is dreamy (better and different to most photos). The small size (for a diver) and light weight make it super comfortable. Great lume. If it were my only watch, THAT would be an affordable one and done watch! Seiko prices have jumped recently, but it was a steal in 2013.

For me its the Citizen Promaster Eco-drive dive watch. A sub $300 ISO certified dive watch, 200m rated, solid lume, date window. Since its a one watch collection its perfect to have an overbuilt watch since you will be wearing it everyday, and every little scratch or knick just adds to its personality.

I’m a huge, die-hard fan of your channel, but i’m not a fan of these 1-watch selections you call “budget.” 😅 These watches are on a 4-digit price range. My wrist check is the Casio Oceanus T200. A watch from the Japanese Domestic Market that is solar-powered, bluetooth, radio for perfect timing, perpetual calendar, the finishing is claimed to be in the same factory as grand seiko (but it looks inviting and elegant); it’s sporty & can dress up or down. I can wear it to the beach, weddings, vacations, office, whatever; It’s 41mm BUT the steel Bracelet is so comfortable that fits perfectly on my 6-inch wrist. (My girlfriend even tries to steal the watch and wear it without me knowing) It’s the perfect everyday 1-watch collection & all that for $300 USD.

I agree with you on the Garmin smart watch for a one watch collection but you picked the wrong one- Garmin instinct 2X tactical solar is the watch nerds choice as it looks like a proper cool coloured watch, lasts a month with all the health stuff turned on, lasts 100 days in low power mode AND potentially never needs charging if your outdoors as it’s solar powered too. Perfect 👍

Wrist check: 38mm Aqua Terra blue dial. For one watch collection I’d exclude numbered bezels and any that aren’t available at 39mm or less. Good call on the Conquest but I thought you’d have gone for the Carrera Date as the Tag Heuer, which is all that anybody really needs in a watch. You can get some amazing Seikos - Prospex (SPB249) or Presage (SSK 039 for a GMT or SRPH27 if you can’t afford a Hamilton) under £500 or even £300.

All nice watches, really. But I have no idea why you call this a budged list? All other watches, except the Tissot, Hamilton and Seiko are objectively expensive watches. Calling a 3000 CHF Longines or the 2200 CHF Tudor "budged" is just ridicolous. Want to make a budged list? Bring Swatch, Casio, Citizen, Seiko (granted, you have them), some lower priced Tissot. This would be the chance to introduce some lesser known brands to the viewers like Claude Bernard. Owned by Edox, they have watches that start at around 100 CHF that are really nice. Most of those watches are for peopel with a bit more disposable income. And from my experience, even those under 1k you mentioned, would be considered way too expensive for most people. And btw, the T601 from Tudor is listes everywhere I saw as based on the 2824-2 or the SW200-1, the 38 hours should give it away.
