I'd as a general rule of thumb, buy a watch from a watch maker unless you know the actual company making the watches.

I tried collecting watches, but then it getts to expensive. I personally wear an Omega seamaster, black on black, steal band, automatic. runs great after five years, probably have to adjust time a minute every two to three weeks. if you want the best watch that money can get (mechanical wise) get a Patek Phillip, you can find them at the south coast plaza. but good luck getting a watch, there are many too choose from. As for the new seamaster automatics, they are going to have the new coaxial movements, which bring the the price tag to around $2500-$3000. I like the new planet ocean from seamaster, but thats if you like orange on black.

Wow - I thought I was one of the few nuts for watches. I've collected rather a number over the years and I'll tell you while it was nice to get the super expensive watches they are not what I wear normally.
I tend to buy them to match dress style and activity.
Price is not a big deal anymore as frankly all watches work.
Back in the day it was about reliability and that's why some watches cost lots more then others.
But they all work well now.

Jacob Jensen who was a key designer for the B&O electronics firm designs privately now and has a whole line of interesting watches that I like for use with formal wear and suits...

My true daily watch is a leather band Kenneth Cole. It's been working well for five years now and looks great. Exactly what you want for a daily watch. Plus for $120, how can you go wrong? I certainly don't call that overpriced.
