Anyone can give advice for a automatic watch
for under 1K. Seiko makes some quality movement in non premium brand that are reasonable. I don't care about name brand if price is too high. It's not for prestige.
Never had a auto watch. I know Rolex in 1950's
made movement that was a game changer.
I gave up on battery watches like G-Shock because we time to change battery not waterproof anymore. Solution Eco Drives.
There is something about the purity of all mechanical movement to perfection level.
That is the draw for me and I have never owned
one.
I saw a SKX 007 on eBay very reasonable price.
When checked it again was sold. It is a good looking watch.
Wow, didn't know that Apple added a funtion for KKF's East Coast Gathering...I went from a Tag Heuer dive watch I bought many years ago when I was a divemaster to now wearing an Apple Watch Series 5. This was the first series with the ECG function and I wanted to be able to verify I wasn't dead, yet.
For your viewing pleasure - wore this out grocery shopping today - it’s simple, but nice

Did you end up finding an automatic watch yet? Reddit r/watchexchange is probably your best bet. You can usually get a good quality SKX or other Seiko diver for under $250 any day of the week, and there's always a ton of good deals to be found there. I like longislandwatch.com too, if you're looking for something new and not used.I saw a SKX 007 on eBay very reasonable price.

Wow! It’s unobtainable today and worth a fortune!My Dad’s vintage Nautilus (1980s?)…

I just went to an Oris boutique today. Is this the river’s watch - Aquis?I like the look and overall quality but power reserve isn’t the best, sometimes I prefer wearing a simple quartz

Correct Oris AquisI just went to an Oris boutique today. Is this the river’s watch - Aquis?
Oris is a great watch company, they are located 30 min from where I live
Aquis is an amazing watch - good to 300m?Correct Oris Aquis
bracelet and bezel are top quality even when side by side comparison to Rolex or omega divers
power reserve is only about 24 hours so have to use a watch winder
that's what they saidAquis is an amazing watch - good to 300m?
this looks really goodI like the look and overall quality but power reserve isn’t the best, sometimes I prefer wearing a simple quartz
