I think this is casual, and it is in your price range. It is my favorite Calatrava

Thanks AWS1, hopefully you add it to your collection as well!

Probably controversial for “everyday wear” but I think the ellipse is so cool, and the more you dress it down, the better.

Build up a good rep and try for a steel calatrava when they are released. Around $25k msrp

At the risk of sounding gaudy I wouldn’t pay $25k for this guy

Thank you BCG1. I figured that a Calatrava is going my only bet for that price range.

Is the reason you want a Patek because you’ve always dreamed about that brand, or because you think it is the best quality? If the former, yes look at the Calatravas. If the latter though, you can get a lot more for your $ if you are willing to look at other brands.

$35k is bit limiting if only considering Patek, but not limiting at all if you look at the broader market

A Longe & Sohne make (in my opinion) understated pieces that are absolutely beautiful, if you don’t know why you want to buy a Patek then you shouldn’t buy one IMO

Ok. My lads and ladies of FB. I need a watch suggestion in about the 8k range. Just got married on Saturday and wife wants to gift me a watch.

Went in to check compare sizes for an Aqua Terra (green dial) but now torn between that and Moonwatch Sapphire (manual wind but the case in the back is just 😍)

Surprisingly the Moonwatch felt smaller (even though it’s 42mm vs 41mm Aqua terra) but I’m not sure about the manual wind tbh - worried I’d break it

This is going to be my main watch for the next 20+ years so I want to make sure I pick correctly!

What would you pick and why?

Why would a luxury watch brand make/sell connected or smart watches? What is the business reason for it? To me it just kills the brand value. For instance I was a big fan of Montblanc but after I see their smart watch line up I instantly devalued the brand in general. Same for Tag (tag is questionable anyways), or Breitling. What is your opinion on this topic?
