I'm in the latter stages of choosing a 'nice' (read: expensive by my standards) watch to mark a career milestone.
I've narrowed it down to the new Tudor North Flag (subject to seeing it in the metal, but I like it a lot from the photos), the NOMOS Metro (original version with the power reserve indicator, which I was delighted to hear they aren't discontinuing), and a used Rolex 114270 Explorer, (apparently all the rage around these parts at the moment, but something I've lusted after for a while). Outside contenders are the IWC Mk.XVII, and the Sinn 857 UTC.
Help? I'm naively imagining that the Tudor and the NOMOS are possible future classics given that they are the first examples from their respective brands with in-house movements (fully in-house, in the case of the Metro), and something nice to leave to my offspring.
