Garmin

(51)
"I just got a Garmin Forerunner 55 and I LOVE it. SUCH an improvement from the Apple Watch."
"Get a Garmin Forerunner 255 music. It can easily last a week without charging."
"A Garmin I think is one of the best for data, GPS, has many options and a long bat"
"Garmin still does overall health/wellness/readiness/training status better than any third party Apple Watch app"
"Forerunner for life! It’s got me through so many long runs including my last marathon!"
"I recently switched from the Forerunner 45S to the Forerunner 255 with music and it's great!"
"Forerunner 965 checks those boxes. Love mine. 0 regrets coming from apple."
"I agreee. I have the fenix 7."
"Forerunner 955 is great - including Spotify."
"I love my Garmin 265S."

Seiko
4.5
(40)
"At this price range I would always go with a Seiko - bulletproof build and hundreds of styles."
"Seiko, orient and Citizen. Absolutely undefeated at this price point."
"I recommend the Seiko 5 automatic."
"I'd look at Seiko, Citizen, or Orient. All good brands that have watches in that price category."
"Check out the Seiko presage Tokyo time black dial. It's one of the sexiest dials they have come up with."
"Cant go wrong with the Seiko Presage Line."
"Seiko spb155 baby alpinist"
"Most Seiko Presages should be around that mark and will work well for the event."
"Seiko alpinist with discount should be under 50k."
"Any Seiko Prospex ISO dive watch."

Tissot

(22)
"For Tissot I'd certainly recommend the T-Classic line and the T-Lady line, both of these have multiple options within your price range."
"Hands down the PRX quartz. My Dad has the quartz, I have the automatic."
"Tissot all the way."
"Tissot PRX is a popular watch (UK about £3-350) and come in multiple options."
"I'd say Tissot! Try find automatic."
"Tissot PRX screams understated luxury."
"Much better movement and finishing then Seiko."
"I would suggest an automatic Tissot Seastar or Longines Dolce Vita."
"Look at the Tissot website for their Gentleman model."
"Another watch with the same stylings is this tissot."

Casio
4.3
(21)
"Casio Duro and buy a different strap. Well below your budget but it's the perfect way to get into watches IMO."
"Casio, Alba, or Citizen."
"Buy a Casio."
"GShock. Mine is 6k and has been working for 14 years already."
"Go for any G shock."
"Casio Duro or a Vostok. Nothing else will outlast these two watches."
"Casio!!! Dalawa lang watch ko and pinakamain na watch ko is Casio."
"Casio G shock katulad kay Mommy Angelica Yulo."
"Timex Marlin/Q Panda/Waterbury series. Casio Edifice ( the ones with sapphire glasses, the gunpowder bracelet one is too cool )"
"If you want a quartz - the Casio edifice series and Marlin are probably the best value."
#5
Citizen
4.5
(19)
"A high quality Japanese Automatic might be the ticket, check out Citizen (Easily one of my Fav. Watch brands), SEIKO, and another super solid choice would be Orient."
"These are solar powered so just don't hide it in a drawer in the dark when not wearing it, leave it on a shelf where it can get some daylight and it'll just work for many years (decades even)."
"Since he’s never really had a watch before this line of Citizens is a GREAT starter watch."
"I think the Citizen Tsuyosa watches look fantastic for the price and it’s kind of a watch that can be worn for just about any occasion."
"You can get the citizen eco-drive bm8180 for $80 here if you use the coupon on the product page."
"Citizen is a great brand, and their solar powered Eco-Drive."
"Citizen Promaster Tough or any other Promaster eco-drive diver."
"Citizen Promaster bn0100, bx1000 (perpetual calendar) or any other citizen eco-drive."
"Any citizen eco-drive you like from the officialwatchdeals store on ebay."
"Citizen or Seiko solar powered watches."

"Personally, the new Orient bambino watches are very popular."
"Orient Kamasu 🏄"
"Orient Kamasu 🏄"
"Orient Bambino 38mm looks very classy for around 20-25k."
"I like the Orient Kamasu Diver for around that price point."
"Have a look at Orient Bambino, Timex Marlins... and possibly some Seikos."
"Maybe Orient Star Automatic RE-AU0005L00B Power Reserve."
"Orient Bambino."
"I had an Orient, and it was really nice. I still eyeball Bambinos when I think that I have a need for a dress watch."
"I would recommend getting Orient moonstar or Bambino."

"You can’t go wrong with a Speedy for an Omega fan."
