Since my Rolex Submariner was recently stolen, I am in the market for a new watch; however, I have decided to put a $1000.00 limit on the price of this watch. I would love some suggestions on nice watch that would fill the void of my Rolex but at a lower price point. Thanks, Tim.

Two of my favorite affordable sub homage's, if that is what you are looking for, are: 1) Steinhart Vintage Red http://www.gnomonwatches.com/product-detail.asp?pid=54 and 2) MKII LRRP Milsub http://www.gnomonwatches.com/product-detail.asp?pid=648 Alan

I don't mind if it is a homage as long as it is a very good quality watch in it's own regard. I loved my Rolex Two toned submariner but did not like the attention it got!, Nor did I like the fact that it never kept good time for a $9000 watch! LOL. If I ever buy another, it will be the black SS Submariner or a good Panerai. I have a nice local built homage to the Panerai Fiddy with a Swiss Unitas 6497 that I really enjoy. It has a black sterile dial... I have already considered the Debaufre Ocean 1 with green bezel but I have a mint condition Trident with SS bracelet and the rubber strap. Currently have it on the rubber as it is very heavy on the bracelet. So, I am not sure I want another Debaufre at this time. Thanks for all the suggestions!Last edited on Tue Nov 30th, 2010 10:10 pm by TimShultz |

All you need is here on 3T. All the brands that O mentioned are truly good choices. That Baliha'i is a remarkable one. Tim, at the price point you mentioned, I can also recommend the Dievas Aqua Luna in either steel or PVD and in either gray or blue dial. Like I said on an earlier post, this line is built like a tank. Note I don't work for Gnomon nor represent the Dievas brand but I have 3 Aqua Lunas....they're really built to last.

if you can go just above 1k, you can find preloved Anonimo Millimetris pretty frequently for right around 1k. I own 2 other Anonimos and love them very much.

I have this limited sub from Epos myself. There was made only 222 pieces for the Asian market. I had it for a year or so and I'm very pleased. It's a 44mm housing a 2824.2 with a different twist inspired from the Millgauss. Still a guy on the Bay who sell it... It's a great watch for the buks. http://cgi.ebay.com/EPOS-3396-LIMITED-SUBMARINER-200M-AUTOMATIC-WATCH-/280595074205?pt=Wristwatches&hash=item4154c50c9d#ht_18996wt_1139

Tim, are you looking for a new piece or pre-owned? As you are aware going pre-owned opens up a whole lot of options.
