HELP! Me find something like this.

Crunchers. I'm looking to find something similar in styling like this CW Malvern.

Thinking 38mm, thin profile, with a silver case and white dial. 20mm straps preferably. Sapphire is a must, with AR as a nice to have. I don't want to go vintage hunting.

Completely open to movements, but the budget has to be under 500€.

Any thoughts?

Under 500?

Nah, sorry I didn't see the price at the end. Back to the drawing board.

Hahaha 🤣 no worries. Even quartz! I gotta say someone showed me the manual wind Nomos on here and it's stunning.

SKMEI 1181

or you might like Sternglas

I like the look of that for sure. Seems very decent value, eh?

·

That is beautiful, but far too expensive. We get crippled with import taxes here in Ireland - something like 23%. That would end up being nearly 1000 all in

May we interest you in a Daniel Wellington? 😉🤣

Ok sorry I didn’t realize you were in Ireland. How about a Tissot Visodate or a Chemins de Tourelle? They’re cheaper but the size is too big.

I do like the visodate. Honestly didn't even know that existed. Very cool choice. Thanks

Try Ashford watches. They are a grey market dealer that sells some of those intramatic models for much less than retail.

I'm thinking about this or laco 39 myself

If you want something cheap as chips there is this 40/10 with 20mm lugs and sapphire crystal and its under $100

Or you could go with a Japanese company called Knot, they do an auto (38/10) and a solar (38/7) but both have 18mm lugs

They are some amazing choices. Thank you. I actually really like the seagull, and it's a hair over 10mm which isn't bad for a movement with a rotor, I guess! The proportions on that thin solar actually looks pretty good considering it's 18mm lug width. Gonna have a look!
