Hey guys, after searching and looking at numerous watches. I saw the Stowa Marine Automatic. Picture here:
I really like it very much except that:
1) price (exchange rate plays it to my disadvantage),
2) waiting time of approximately 3 months and
3) I am unable to try it out physically before purchasing since Stowa only has an online shop.
My question is, are there any other brands of watches similar to the Stowa above with similar, or even better, cheaper than that? Hope to hear your recommendations!
That Seiko is automatic and a very fine watch. I think you should go ahead and get the Stowa, as it's supposed to be a great value and you like it. However, I also think you should open your mind to Seiko, as they make some watches at the pinnacle of horology. If you're only familiar with their "mall watches," you're not really familiar with them.
You might check out the Archimede Deckwatch. It is a handwound (Unitas/ETA 6498); very similar in look to the Stowa, but with a small seconds and no date. Price should be better. I'm waiting for a pre-owned to arrive.
if you trying to buy pre owned watches, so search in google as antique and luxury watches u can get better options...............
