With your budget, I definitely recommend Tissot. There's a range which is around RM1.6K. Tissot is a good entry level luxury watch. It's an established Swiss brand with a long history. If you're buying for fashion statement and class, go for it. If you're looking for advanced complications and tech, you might want to try Seiko. Not that Swiss' watches doesn't have advanced complications, but it'll costs a bomb. The point is, in general, for the same set of features between a Swiss watch and Japanese watch, Swiss watch is always a class above and more expensive mainly because of its history, quality, heritage, image and branding. Tech-wise, Japanese watches are as good as Swiss but they simply doesn't have enough of the attributes mentioned above.
