Thanks Robbo. I can remember buying a 1960s Seamaster in rose gold for around £150 about 25 years ago from eBay. Who knows what it really was…..I kept it for 6 months and then sold it on (again on eBay). It was then another few years before my interest in watches started gather momentum.
I was thinking something along the lines of this:

Or

Something more on the dress watch side of things, as large as possible (35-36mm is probably as good as it gets) but I’m just beginning this journey so I’m fairly open minded here.
