Keep in mind though that mechanical watches are not buy and forget options in the way quartz watches are.

They are the Swiss railway clock people. I love the clean faces.
You probably won't get a mechanical one with your money. But they do look nice.
Otherwise +1 for timefactors, I have had my eye on a Smiths military replica for a while now.
Have fun choosing.

Strangely enough Graeme I've been thinking of replacing the strap with a brown strap you just may have made my decision for me.
