Whilst i like the classiness/Dressiness of the Cartier - i personally prefer the IWC, and would buy an IWC pilot before i would get a cartier santos
i have a speedy and am planning to get the seamaster diver 300m - the other omega watch i love is the aqua terra 'terracotta' - keeps you with omega and gives you a different dial colour
Thats completely fine - I put it out there to have a discussion & spark a conversation.
I guess i havent seen anything yet that qualifies as a grail (i do love the A Lange & Sohn Zeitwerk but i dont think i could ever pay that much for a watch). I feel that watches have become a big d*ck swinging competition (especially with rolex, PP & AP), and i would rather purchase some watches that i can afford and appreciate - but without taking a second mortgage.
I think beauty is in the eye of the beholder - and i hope that as i get into the hobby more, i can appreciate a $100 timex/casio as much as a $100k PP/AP - but i think that takes time as well.
both approaches make loads of sense - and i guess its fine if my "grail"watches are widely available - just need to pay a lot of money for them :D
I havent seen anything yet that speaks to me as a grail - im still relatively new to the watch world and i often just look at watch streamers on youtube to grow my knowledge of the watch world.
As much as there are some beautiful cheaper pieces (i have my eye on a field watch Hamilton Khaki/Timex Explorer Titanium & Boldr Venture) - but i feel like i will get more enjoyment out of a Oris Aquis than the field watches as well - so i hold back.
Im also not a massive seiko fanboy - but i can see why some people love them.
