One of if not the most iconic watches in the world. I do not put much value on the NASA connection but aside, it is still a great watch. Definitely wears larger than 40mm of the bezel, but wears smaller than the stated width of 40mm. The dial layout is very legible unlike some other chronographs. For the retail price it is a bit steep, but if buying preowned it presents good value.

A refined option over the Black Bay 58. The 54 has a more historically accurate bezel and smaller case, great for smaller wrists. The case is also slimmed down to just 11.2mm. The bracelet is also update with the T-Fit adjustment clasp, something missing on the 58.

The PRX is a class-leading watch in its price range. The bracelet is beautiful with a predominantly brush top surface but with polished facets between the links. The dial and hands have a Royal Oak aesthetic but in a more attainable package. The 35mm case is a great wear on smaller to medium sized wrist.

The Tudor Black Bay 58 GMT is a phenomenal luxury GMT watch. It one of the most compact GMTs  on the market, in a 39mm case with a thickness under 12.8mm. It wears great on wrists of any size. If you are waiting for a Rolex coke GMT, your wait should end here.

This watch provide the two-tone aesthetic the Santos is known for, in a package that wears great on smaller to average sized wrists. Despite the roman numerals, this watch makes for a great sport/dress hybrid in a collection.

The Speedmaster 38 is the entry model of the Speedmaster line. The case thickness over 14mm is the real sticking point of this watch. Otherwise, this watch provides a great option for those who want the Speedmaster Professional look without going pre-owned with a Speedmaster Reduced.

This is one of the most popular Rolex models. The 41mm case wears well on average to above average sized wrists. The crowd pleasing design is very versatile and can be worn in casual and formal environments. The Rolex 3235 movement is a workhorse and will run reliably for many years to come. The cyclops may be a contentious inclusion, but if you are okay with it the Datejust 41 makes for a great everyday wear.

The Tudor Black Bay 58 is the most popular watch at its price for a reason. It has a compact size of 39mm and a vintage-inspired 50s dive aesthetic. It packs a reliable in-house movement with 70hrs of power reserve. For its current retail price it is good value, but for second hand prices it's a steal.
