too afraid to get into vintage. limited budget makes me go for "safer" things in terms of value, condition.
i"ll skip a few steps from the chart. rolex and vintage is a no go. (for now at least)
Love the zenith 1969 in silver. The 146 reissue is overpriced IMO. But they all feel pretty similar to the Speedmaster.
Have you considered a second hand JLC master compressor deep sea? Should be within budget, ticks the sports "one watch" collection for me.
What’s your budget and more importantly why aren’t you buying vintage?
