It depends a little on what youโ€™re wanting but I donโ€™t think you can go wrong with this.

The Seiko is a watch for every occasion. If youโ€™re going Tissot, check out the PRX Quartz for ~$300 or a little more for the Gentleman Silicium. Or for less than $500, you can get the Hamilton Field Khaki Mechanical.

All Iโ€™ve been considering, but man that powermatic 80 movement under $280 on the Tissot above is holding me hostage from moving to the quarts PRX lol

Thatโ€™s fair. I have a PRX and a Visodate and just got my wife a Chemin de Tourelle so I can attest that the Powermatic 80 is awesome. If this is meant to be an everyday watch, the 80 hour power reserve doesnโ€™t matter as much then.

I would have to agree with this! I have it in green and love it.

If youโ€™re wanting a Swiss everyday and youโ€™re holding of from Tissot till you can get the auto prx Iโ€™d recommend Certina particularly the DS Podium line.

I got this gmt in titanium and itโ€™s great but Iโ€™ve seen it in steel for around 300.

Orherwise there is also the DS Caimano

Image

For a dressier look.

Both Certinas are reasonably sized and have 100m of water resistance so should work as an everyday choice.

I recently bought this dress watch for just 21 euro

Just before that this masterpiece for just 94 euro

Image

And just before that, this delicious diver for 59 euro!

And almost at the same time, this amazing dress watch (model 9541 CGX270111 by Shenhua from China) for 70 euro

And I have many lovely older watches, that I found in the same incredible price range...
