Help with buying my next watch.
Hey WC my birthday is soon and I've got a budget of around $300-$500. I am debating whether to get a dress watch, a diver or a chronograph. My collection currently consists of a tissot gentleman(my daily), a seiko 5 bruce lee edition and a G shock. I've atchated some of the options I found on chrono 24 for $500. Since my tissot is already blue I'm not sure if I want another blue watch. Which one do you guys think looks better or do you have any other suggestions? And also which seiko cocktail time looks the best in your opinion?

I'm a brand new watch enthusiasts and just picked up my second mechanical watch. Absolutely love the mechanics and the charm and still eager to learn more.

They look all great, but I would probably go with the Seiko Cocktail in gold case and brown dial, as I think a dresser would be needed in your collection.
Speedtimer 🤘
The blue presage is also amazing

For $500?
Out of the five choices, I’d go with the speed timer.
For $500?
Not for $500 just curious 😬
I would have to go speed timer ! But all good options.
Seitona or the blue presage
Having being told your current collection , get the speedtimer , a chronograph would be something different

How does it wear, I am worried 42mm might be a big big, 40mm with a 48mm kug to lug fits quite for me for reference

Then this one will fit perfect it’s cushion style case so it will measure big but it doesn’t wear like a 42 at all. The lug to lug on this one is only 44mm
I sell all of them at my job and the speedtimer is a total banger (i prefere the anthracite one but the panda is really really cool)
And if you want to stay in the automatic dress watch, the cocktail blue moon is too too slick
thanks to all the suggestions actually picked up the speedtimer yesterday
