The Timepiece Thread vol: READ THE 1st POST!!!

Yooooo. I'm looking to purchase a watch with the max price being about $550.

I was looking towards a Tissot PRC200. As for suggestions, just throw whatever out there. I want to hear of your favorites. Doesn't matter what. I'm especially interested in divers and military, though. Also, I would like to put a Nato or Zulu strap on it.

Just bought a seiko skx007 and did a couple mods. I think I'll probably do a couple more as well. It's a great watch, because it's so versatile and also customizable. Here's mine as it stands right now..

They look great on Zulu/NATO as well.

Check out TSOVET.

Skx007 such a classic watch , don't like that mod bro ski but do you
 
That's the beauty of this watch IMO. Some people prefer the stock look (which is also very nice), while others prefer to make it their own. I love how you can customize just about every aspect. Of course, each mod is not going to be for everyone, but I couldn't be happier with my purchase. In fact, I'm already planning my next 2-3 mods.

I posted a bunch of my favorites in the second post in this thread.

Hamilton is my favorite for military inspired watches at that price point with the khaki king with bracelet as my favorite in my collection due to its versatility with straps.

For divers, I recommend either Citizen or Seiko divers in that price range like the 007/009, sumo, monster, excalibur, etc.
 
Nighthawk. Really hard to get a better watch for more the same price. The integrated lugs kill the Seiko for me.
 
Square watches.

I slept on the prc200, they went up in price since I last had interest over a year ago.
 
Hey are any of you guys familiar with Orient watches? I'm interested in this watch but I've found 2 versions for sale online. I'm trying to figure out the differences between the two. They look exactly the same and I believe the same specs but one is twice the price. Reps to anyone that can figure this out for me.

Orient watches are highly recommended, right along with Seiko and Citizen. I actually listed this watch in the second post as it is well liked from many reviews. Looking at the pictures and specs, they are the same watch with the only difference being that Amazon is listing at its MSRP. Go with the cheaper option @ $150, longislandwatches is legit and I heard great things from their customer service.
 
Really want this but not sure if it's worth the price tag in regard to quality.

I might pick up the Mako in the future and swap out the strap with a NATO one. Looks real clean.
