To be honest, I’m considering me as a Watch (not Brand!) Snob myself, but l‘m also open for Ali Watches as well. I bought some stuff from Pagani, Heimdallr and Cadisen - but they never got me this satisfactional feeling like something from the know Swiss or German Brands…I like to have something which gives me the feeling it’s well made and effort is put in every aspect to make something outstanding (which is totally possible in every budget range).

I’m not looking for something where 95% of the manufacturing costs are spent to achieve the last 5% of Quality (like maybe Rolex or others?!), but at the end I‘m looking for something that will blow me away for an affordable price.

I’m searching for a watch in the of range 200-350$ (please no recommendations from San Martin, I’m somewhat tired of reading of those).

Currently I’m waiting for my Hruodland Pilot Turbine Custom with the blue sunburst dial (looks amazing on the pictures)…

My favourite at the moment is the Seestern S434, but I’m happy vor any recommendations that will probably even amaze me more then the Hruodland or the Seestern ☺️.
