The Grand List

My birthday is coming up, so I am trying to narrow down what I want to ask for. They are all automatics, I have decided against battery operated chronographs. Here are the top 13 watches I would like next, in no particular order:

Seiko SKX033K2

It’s a Seiko SKX033, a 100 meter watch, not a true diver. It looks
very similar to a Rolex Submariner, but with Seiko style hands. Very
similar to the SKX031, except with the ‘Pepsi’ blue and red bezel. I
think I like it more than the all black ‘031. The splash of red adds a
lot. Again, Rolex looks at a decent price. About $120 on eBay. Its $159 on Chronograph.com.

 

 

Seiko 5 SNZB19K

Another 5. I really like this one. Pearl face with a cool lime
green second hand. Only about $120 on eBay. I could use a white/light
faced watch. My only other light faced is my Timex. It’s $165 on Chronograph.com.

 

 

Seiko 5 SNZE49 J1

I like the red face of this one. It is a Seiko 5, so it is an
automatic. The bracelet looks pretty sharp as well. About $130 to 150
on eBay. It’s$153 on Chronograph.com

 

 

Seiko 5 Superior SKZ207J

A Seiko 5 Superior, SKZ207J compass watch. I like the look, cream
face, and compass feature. It also comes in blue and black. Not sure how the compass works yet, bit I
love the looks of this watch. 200m water resistant. This looks like a Japanese made unit,
since it has the 7S36 movement. About $125 on eBay.  A whopping $235 on Chronograph.com! Ouch.

 

 

Seiko SKX031K2

It’s a Seiko SKX031, a 100 meter watch, not a true diver. It looks
very similar to a Rolex Submariner, but with Seiko style hands. It also
costs about $5500 less. A Rolex homage with the hand style I like from Seiko. It’s $158 on Chronograph.com.

 

SNK339K

Sporty, baby blue face. Is is too baby blue? Not sure. $115 on Chronograph.com.

 

SNK391K1

Cool retro brown faced watch. I don’t know why I like it, but I do. I like the bracelet as well. Only $95 on Chronograph.com.

 

SNK789K-L

If I ever want to retire my Timex, this would be the one to replace it. Simple, white faced watch. $135 on Chronograph.com.

 

SNKE03J1

An all black watch. Would be a very different addition to my collection. $168 on Chronograph.com is a bit more than I wanted to spend.

 

SNKF49K1

Simple, clean lines. Looks like a Grand Seiko. I think it would wear well with formal or casual clothes as well. $128 on Chronograph.com.

 

SNKF51K1

This one has some nice features. Black bezel and carbon fiber face. The red second hand is cool looking as well. Would also look excellent on black leather strap. $138 on Chronograph.com.

 

SNZB21K

Nice, manly looking watch with a green second hand. The hands are a style I like as well and I like the 1/5 second hash marks. The bracelet it very nice looking as well and the watch would look great on leather as well. $128 on Chronograph.com.

 

SNZE74K1

A rose gold and black faced watch. I think it is quite stunning looking and I like the full day of the week is spelled out. $168 on Chronograph.com.
