I’m thinking of buying my dad some kind of watch for his 60th next year. Perhaps a birth year vintage watch. In my vague preliminary searches, I was thinking perhaps a Seamaster, since there seem to be a lot of them around. Any suggestions on how to find a good one, and any other watches to consider? Budget up to £1k, ideally less.
Keep an eye on Black Bough and sign up to their stock newsletter. They frequently have tidy watches of that vintage in that price range. Everything they sell is a good example and freshly serviced.
