    High end watch under 20k

    My dad has just started looking for his retirement present to himself he doesn't mind if the watch is used just a few ground rules no rolex's or breitlings and it must have a white face and a sapphire case back.
    Christina: How many watches do you have?
    Me: 23
    Christina: Why are you always late to pick me up?
    Me:................. Have you seen the dial on this Hamilton?

    The Glashutte Original - Senator line is well worth checking out and well under budget.

    There are plenty of watches under 20k that arent rolex or breitling.

    There's Lange Saxonia or 1815, VC Patrimony, Roger Dubuis, GO, GP, JLC, AP, Blancpain, etc.

    Most if not all sport a sapphire back and has a white dial variant.

    It basically comes down to what design or extra specs you require.

    How about a classic Calatrava? A Patek Philippe 5196J?

    If you like complications, a Blancpain Leman Perpetual Calendar Chronograph (ref.
    2585-1127-53):

    (borrowed image)

    Should be under $20k after an AD discount (MSRP $24,600).

    I would look at the offerings from JLC. Based on your Dad's requirements in a high-end watch, JLC has many styles that would fit what he's looking for and well under $20,000.
