Well I've had the same watch for the last 12 years and Its time to replace it and after spending the last 2 hours looking at stuff I can't seem to find something that I like enough to justify the price most places ask. With all the watch enthusiasts here I figured this would be the place to ask.
What I'm looking for
-~40mm overall diameter
-carbon fiber face (or some kinda Iridescent or chameleon type)
-stainless band (mostly polished maybe with some black accents)
- has to have a bezel that rotates (use as a timer)
-has to have a date window (preferable over another dial)
-no digital time (hands only)
-no wind ups or whatever the ones you have to shake are called.
-drip proof (I'm not looking to dive with the thing I just wanna be able to wash my hands and not wreck it)
-<1000$
I'm not a brand snob and it doesn't have to be super high end as long as it meets the basic requirements set above.
and what are places charging to have a watch polished these days? can they do anything with the crystal over the face? As my old one has 2 small scratches that really annoy me.
