With this "great accuracy for the value" in mind, just go for quartz or smartwatch.

Already have one too :( it’s a plain white sub-second.
Unless you are referring to GS Springdrive Snowflake ? ???? haha

Trying to find some iconic Seiko for you.

Just found out that most of them exceeding RM 2k mark, eg. Alpinist, Sumo...etc.

But some 5th Generation Monster, Turtle, Samurai old stock still are slightly below RM 2k. You may want to take a look.

Seems like rugged watch, but I will put them on the list for consideration :)

2K for a daily beater, personally I'd get a good used Swiss auto watch, like maybe a Longines Hydroconquest. I've seen this going for a bit over 2k at 2nd hand dealers, who would give some warranty on it too.

If you prefer new, I remember buying the manually wound Hamilton Khaki Mechanical for RM1k new a few years ago - don't think the price is much higher now.

Not sure about the Hydroconquest as there are several models - you can do a search to find out more.

The Hamilton is H694190.
