Seriously please help! I want to get my hands on a not-too-big watch, mechanical movement and a brass-sapphire (edit, I meant bronze) case combo.
Vintage watches are always accepted, of course.
Chronos 24 is not helping I’ve looked, can’t find. Suggestions?
Update - if you look at my latest comments, I’ve gotten my paws in quite a few.

Define not-too-big.
Not sure if you mean brass or bronze, but you won't find sapphire on a vintage watch, or bronze either. There is a bronze version of the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical that is quite nice
Oh thanks! I’ll have a look.
Define not-too-big.
36-39ish

To confirm; Bronze case (dive watch) with a ceramic bezel 36-39mm? Budget? Most bronze watches tend to be larger. IE Longines makes one with a ceramic bezel that looks great, but it is 43. Further down budget, so does Tissot, also 43. I am sure a combo exists where you can have all three, so I’m sure someone here will find one.
For me it’s the Tudor 58 Bronze all day long, but it has an aluminum bezel.
