I know there will be a lot of TAG basher here, but you gotta look into this model (WAK2110) I find it smoking hot.

look alike the Omega PO, some said the poor man PO.

as usual Calibre 5 movement (ETA 2824)

If you are willing to go BNIB or LNIB from grey dealers, I think an Omega is within reach at the budget. If you are insistent on new, then as the above.
Your ONLY job in this world is to make sure that you are happy

A new DK10/11 which comes with an in-house movt with silicium escapement costs approx.  13K nett and there are only a handful of ppl in MWF who have it (AFAIK).
Doubt if anyone will let go at 7K when the model was only introduced less than 1+ yr ago.

you could check out Sinn u2 or Damasko DK11 pre-own unit should be reachable
build quality is excellent,

If I'm not mistaken, I think there is a retailer in Bangsar Village 2 which carries Nomos and Junghans.
