Do you mind to get a used one? Or only prefer a new one? As for the new one, there’s not much you can choose with the 5k budget.

RM 5k budget probably can get u the below Swiss made watches:
1. Epos or Ball for new watch.
2. Rolex or Omega for preowned watch.
-
With the state of our current Forex these days, most of the Swiss watches had seen price increases. With a RM5k budget, I believe that entry-level brands like Oris would make a good proposition, and do remember to negotiate as Oris gives good discounts.

oris :thumbsup:

Just saw Mido new model is very nice.
Maybe its new Head of Products is Philippe Antille. He was Ball watch CTO during 2008 to 2015 and before that he was Rolex engineer.
-
I would go for a preowned Longines Legend Diver, perhaps I could get one from the range between RM4500 to RM5000 in good condition with fullset. LLD resembles their vintage design with long history dated back in 1957. Read here http://bit.ly/2BNBqOt for more info. Let us know what do you get at the end !
-
Perhaps Hamilton, Frederique Constant, Maurice Lacroix, Baume & Mercier etc.
-
Oris pro pilot is nice!
-
How about a Certina DS Action Diver Titanium Automatic

How much is baume mercier. Any idea?
-
Going for pre-owned would make the RM5K go further. Can consider a pre-owned Nomos Tangente or Club. Longines Legend Diver (no date) is a classic too.

Thanks for all of the suggestions provided above. I'm happy to say that I have gone for the Longines Hydroconquest Automatic :) :)
-
Epos, Steinhart
-
Longines Conquest GMT, Longines Hydroconquest, Gylcine, Oris.. So many other choices too.. RM 5k budget can have a lot of choices..
-
Perhaps Hamilton, Steinhart, Stowa etc.
-
Great choice..
Btw there's two model of hydroconquest, applied indices with polished central bracelet, or arabic numerals with full brushed bracelet?
-
if you like to see your watch in the dark, can go for BALL watch... i just love the luminous of it at night...

Good choice. Wear in good health and more watches to come in the future. :thumbsup:

If you have not gotten the longines, will you consider Baltic 001 Bicompax? That watch looks like a 1940s Longines chronograph.
-
oris is good with good design and sporty
-
Oris aquis date maybe
-

-Longines hydroconquest ceramic black

For budget RM5k below, there are few brand you can refer to. Tissot and Oris.
For Oris, I prefer Oris Artix Day Date or Diving ed. Its a good watch

U can try look for 2nd hand watch, I think is easier to find the watch u like in this way
-
You can get a good used Nomos within that range! Great in house movement and nice design. Though it’s a German timepiece not Swiss.

ORIS propilot day-date! Cant go wrong with that ;D
-
I suggest you to have that watch which has resale value and also consider the watch repair (https://www.w1watches.com/) cost also, some watches have more than enough cost for doing the repair.
