IMO..Seiko, Ball, Longines LD all are equally good..at the end of the  day buy what u like not the brand..happy hunting..

For Ball what model can i get for 7k?

I think you can get Ball Hydrocarbon Spacemaster Glow for 7k

Such a nice watch! I will have a look at AD soon. Btw is Ball Fireman Stormchaser is within my budget 7k?

If are looking for real Swiss watches keep away from Ball (American ) and Huer also not so good as paying so much for not an automatic movement although they but not worth.

I would like to say Ball is real Swiss watch, it is manufacturing in Swiss. The company original started in Cleveland, 1891 but later move to Switzerland and now the HQ is in La Chaux-de-Fonds. Trust me it is a real Swiss watch. If staying away from Ball, then we need to stay away from Penarai (Italy), Cartier (France) and others that not original from Swiss. ;D

Tag "Heuer" comes with Automatic, E.Mechanical & Quartz. By looking in 7K, most probably we are looking not a Quartz watches in Tag and I don't think any way we can get in an in house movement New Swiss watches within or below 7K. Correct me if I am wrong. By the way, Tag ETA is not bad as well.  :thumbsup:

Not offence, just my 2 cents.

How about hydroconquest chronograph? It meets all your criterias except size which is 1mm smaller.

Yes, many swiss brand owners are not Swiss, eg. Richmont group owned by South African.

I had the same budget & went thru this before. Considered Sinn U1/UX, Damasko DC56, Stowa Skindiver/T01 and etc.

Guess what I bought at last? The infamous MM300/SBDX001.
