I already have a vintage Omega and I'd really fancy something a bit bigger than that which rules out a lot of the vintage dress watches like that Tudor (nice as it is). All the older stuff I fancy at the moment (a 70s Speedmaster or a Rolex Turnograph at the moment) is at least double the budget.
Cheers @inchpincher and @freddo for the birthday watch suggestions.
What you've said backs up what I suspected.
