The next watch I buy needs to have a 6’oclock date on it because I just need to tick that off my list. I’m kinda enamored with this Robin Egg blue color and was wondering if anyone had suggestions on watches under $1k that are similar to this. Heck even if it’s a different color but has a 6 o’clock date please share it.

If you can wait a few months, this may be a good option for you.
Islander have just launched this watch in 41 mm with six o'clock date. Not sure on colour options for the dial.

I was just on their website and saw the pictures but didn’t know they gave you an option for the date. Thank you!

That would be good for my 8” wrists actually. I’m gonna have to check them out
Christopher Ward C63 Sealander Auto in various colours should be within budget.
There was a limited edition "Lucerne Blue" which would have been affordable but now you'd have to pay flipper-tax - there's one on eBay at £1100 🙄
There are other Islander Brookvilles in 38mm (white, blue, linen) and new 41mm models all with dates at 6:00.

The new 41mm Brookvilles are pretty pretty cool.
I think I’m gonna get this sweet birch version.
maybe there's some on Chrono or eBay.

Up vote for buying this watch. Love my Islander and am eyeing this one as well, but with the linen dial
Not sure if you saw this one but:

Yes I’m actually leaning towards that one because I’d like a gmt complication too.
