Of watches that I could conceivably buy though, the Chronometre bleu is the most I could ever see myself spending, but by the time I could afford it I'm sure something else may have captured my heart.

Need to be able to read the time in the dark, so either top-tier luminous paint, tritium tubes or lit by a led/whatever when I push a button

Most I've come across that have good night visibility are either too busy or look like a divers/pilot watch, I'd rather a dressier looking watch that I can read in the dark.

If you keep it sealed, regulate it from factory to a precision unachievable by hand, and design it to be self-lubricating where needed and low-drag where not, why isn't this "good engineering"?

I have a Q&Q watch that was gifted to me, that is about the same price as a Timex. The case is built in China, but it's stainless steel as opposed to Timex's use of cheaper brass cases and loud quartz movements. The movement is one of the small Citizen Miyota movements, so it's accurate and reasonably durable. It fits all of your criteria except for the optional date window, and its a nice clean design.

>>58143514
It's only regulated in one position at the factory. That and sealing it just ensures that you throw it away once the movement starts to lose accuracy. Though it's not like it was accurate to begin with.

Square is clearly the best design choice. You can fit in more information on the dial and it fits better on your wrist.

I'm tied between a white Explorer II and a black Sub. I think a white Explorer would be easier to match with my fit than a black one. However, I think the Submariner would be more subtle with its 40mm diameter.

From the assortment of parts on you hands it looks like a 1 jewel pinlever movement that looks like one of these old Swiss monopusher chronographs (EB movement perhaps?), and a small fully jeweled watch movement meant for either a female watch or perhaps a small tonneu case.

Casio MTP*
There's a ton of models, from 3 handers, to solar powered ones to chronos
I have an MTP4500D as my daily wear and I love it.
Also own an MTP tank style and it's a great little dress watch.
They're all steel, and have standard lug widths so you can change out the strap/bracelet
Also Casio movements are as quiet as they are accurate, there's no ticking at all, even if you put it against your ear you'll only hear it very faintly.

It's a Breitling knockoff, and it will always be a Breitling knockoff. Don't degrade yourself buying shitters, especially because you seem to actually have taste. I realize that the Navitimer is a lot more expensive but if you're not willing to spend that much I would honestly just keep the Sinn of the list, especially because you already have the chronograph area covered.

Good daily beater tool watch. Not much more to say.

I think this is the best. If you had a NATO that was less blue, something like the one for the Tudor heritage chronograph I think it would work well. That or a solid grey like the other anon recommended. I'm also partial to solid black straps on blue watches.

>>58155617
I think Amazon might be best. It has pretty good filtering, but when you find something you sort if like it gives you something like 20-100 related watches in similar styles or by the same maker that you can look through.

It is owned by but separate from the Fossil brand. It's a fashion watch brand, much maligned here, but they use a decent quality Miyota quartz movement, and a stainless or titanium case (depending on the model) . I've heard about issues with the hardened mineral crystal, but I got one gifted to me a couple of years ago from my daughter, and the crystal and case are still scratch free, and the watch keeps excellent time. She picked it up at Costco for well under retail, about the price of a Timex, and it's a much better built watch.

The model pictured is the one I have with the titanium case, and it's a pretty decent and durable daily wear watch.

>>58157034

I used to have one of their super thin watches in the early 2000's. They make nice looking products, but I can't imagine the resale value is very good, especially since the construction wasn't great, at least when I had one. The black finish of my bracelet started wearing off within a year and you could see some of the stainless steel underneath. This was a watch I wore while working as a waiter. Since there were no scratches on the bracelet, I could tell it was just my shirt cuff and jacket sleeve that were rubbing the black finish off.

Very cheap stuff.

>>58158875

A sweater made of human hair? Let me tell you a story.

There is a small island in the Himalayan Sea called Malderiki, upon which I own a large mansion. Every year afer the first rain, the Newport Beach Wine Society (of which I am a member) gathers at my mansion to watch the island's natives grovel in the mud as their pathetic straw dwellings are ripped apart by the rising waters. On this island there is also a fish, called a Piranha Giganticus. Coinciding with the first rain, this fish swims into the flooded island and begins to feed on the older and weaker natives of Malderiki. Unable to defend themselves from the killer fish and uttrly helpless, the natives make their way to my mansion in makeshift canoes. At this point, the Newport Beach Wine Society opens a bottle of pre-revolution French Chardonnay, dated no later than 1760, and places wagers on which native will be the first to reach the high ground of my sprawling lawn. Once the fish has fed and returned to the Sea, there are typically a handful of natives left on my lawn, at which point we activate the electric fence and release the crocodiles. Last year, during the crocodile feeding, a tiny speck of native flesh was flung from the lawn up to the balcony where the Newport Beach Wine Society was gathered and landed on my shoe. I retrieved the piece of flesh and placed it in my mouth, washing it down with a glass of Moldovan Pino Griggio. Right now, YOU are that piece of flesh

While Walt had issues in this area, the current ownership of Disney is hardly antisemitic! The current head of Disney Bob Iger, and the previous head Michael Eisner, are both Jewish!

The clasp on them is autistic imo. Also while it cant be seen when worn, they fucked up mine when heat treating the steel it appears

After my Citizen (analog watch, gold color) was not functional, I took it to the watch repair center to replace the battery but sometimes the clock stopped working.
I took it to another center, same problem happened again, so I'd rather buy another watch.
This time either with standard battery (CR2025) or solar powered.

After browsing a while at casio's website, I'm going to buy W-800H-1AV, casio digital watch.

Pros:
- One of the latest model, so it should have the latest technology
- Cheap ($20)
- 10 years battery
- Full auto calendar, no need to setup it again on leap years
- Has day of the week (3 digits), date and month display

Cons:
- Disturbing SNZ ALM SIG at the top right
- Resin glass
- Has bloated features I won't use : Alarm, Snooze, Signal

I'm also tempted to buy MTP-VS01L-7B1, analog watch to replace my analog Citizen watch.
It's solar powered but more expensive ($32) than W-800H-1AV.

Pros :
- Leather band
- I can see 1-12 number easily
- Date display
- Mineral glass (harder than resin glass)
- Solar powered
- Low battery alert
- 3 months battery from full charge

Cons :
- None

Your opion, /wt/ ?

As you told, alarm, snooze and signal isn't used by you and you don't have any cons for the analog watch, go for the MTP bud.
