...in watches or collecting the aspect of budget and prices of timepieces is a very important aspect to think about.
I also have observed the reaction of people outside of our world of watches when hearing about the prices of high end pieces and compare them with what is needed to buy a car as an example.
So its interesting to view you recommendations trying to maintain them within certain prices parameters avoiding to surprise or scare a person who is arriving to our hobby for first time.
Then the Mido is a very interesting watch which I must recognize I was not familiar with. A nice design diving watch in titanium from a well known Swiss brand at an affordable brand is really tempting.
The Bell & Ross is a very nice chronograph to cover this category. Being a GMT also makes for a wonderful travel watch as well.
I hadn´t seen the Anonimo before. Nice watch with an interesting design. Yes, probably even a novice in watches would appreciate the concept of two time zones reading separately.
Agree with you that the Navitimer is a very attractive option, specially considering the story and connection with airplanes connection of this brand and model in particular.
I like your choice of the Nicholas Rieussec model from Montblanc as a sophisticated dress watch. it´s a very attractive and fascinating watch indeed.
Finally it was interesting to read your thoughts around the consideration of microbrands as an option. Your Meccaniche Veneziane is a good example to illustrate your thoughts.
Thank you again for your participation! Hagwe, Abel
