I recently picked up a mechanical Orient Gronholm Limited edition. Got it delivered for about $350. Not available new any more.

Go have a look at Christopher Ward. Swiss Watches, Classic Watches, Designer, Gold and Diamond Watches English designed and swiss made. They have a lot of motorsport themed watches which are pretty cool. Good pricing as well. Only available on line but they give you a 60 day refund return period.

Skeleton watches would have to be my favorite. I love the pure mechanical craftmanship on show. Lets face it. If you want to know the time look at your phone.

I have 2 titanium citizens, (I just can't be bothered resetting the time for different time zones when I fly in/fly out).

my work watch is a promaster 200m dive watch with all the bells and whistles, altitude and depth meters, dive timers, temp and barometric sensors, etc...

my home watch is a two tone titianium and gold eco-drive chronograph.

I've had the eco-drive for about 6 years and it's been spot on and the dive watch for about 3 months, so far as expected all good.
