Title: Ultimate wrist watch under USD $500
Post by: theseira on November 26, 2015, 12:19:19 PM

Guys please share your thoughts/opinions on the ultimate wrist watch under USD $500.

Personally I would go with the Seiko cocktail.

Oh guys and I just found one of our forum members sidetracker's review here http://www.malaysiawatchforum.com/index.php?topic=14896.0

Hard to beat this piece for the price imo.

With this budget, probably initiate a project watch. Unique and tailored

Would prefer the OrientStar GMT but it will be a little above USD500 (don't seem to be able to get it below RM2k).  So, the OrientStar Classic would do ...  ;D

Ultimate in terms of functionality, I have to go with a Casio G-Shock Rangeman. If it must be automatic, then I can agree with that seiko cocktail

Just to add on a digital watch if you prefer, Suunto would be ideal. Otherwise, go for Seiko Cocktail then.
