Daily Drivers: Great Watches for Under 5,000 Euros

Tudor Pelagos
Tudor Pelagos – Offer from Uhren2000: SOLD

Are you looking for Rolex quality with more technical features but at half the price? Do you like professional diving watches that perform perfectly in the deep sea, in the garden playing with the kids, and in your office but lack the “snob” factor? Do you appreciate well-made details on watches like applied indexes on the dial, a functional in-house movement, and a ceramic bezel? Well, you may have just found the perfect watch for the job: The Tudor Pelagos can do all that and look very cool while doing it.

Enthusiast’s Corner: Rare or Exceptional Timepieces

In some ways, the Calatrava is the most iconic Patek Philippe timepiece. One might even say it’s the Submariner of Patek Philippe. Of course, that’s not a bad thing and simply shows how well thought-out and extremely popular it is. But in the world of vintage Calatravas, there are several rare gems to find, such as this beautiful Ref. 3445 in white gold.

Due to its date display, this model is not very popular among purists, making it interesting if you’re willing to look a bit outside the box. Also, most examples from this era were made in yellow gold, so finding one in white gold is already quite special. With its understated look, it’s the perfect stealth watch for that extra special occasion.

Iconic Timepieces: Great Value for Your Money

Cartier Tank Américaine – Offer from Ticino Watch Lab Sagl: SOLD

There are only a few watches that tick almost all of the boxes one can think of. The Cartier Tank Americaine is one of them. First of all, the Tank is one of the biggest watch icons. With its debut all the way back in 1917, it has graced the wrists of elegant and unique characters like Cary Grant, Andy Warhol, and Jackie Kennedy. Secondly, it is a classic dress watch in white gold from a legendary luxury brand; such watches are normally much more expensive. Then, of course, you have plenty of the fine details you would expect from a house like Cartier: a guilloché dial, blue hands, and a crown with a faceted sapphire. In fact, with this watch you will get outstanding value for your money.
