 Based on your choices, STOWA would be good. However, there's a little-known German brand that's also popular for their milky-white dials, reliability and simplicity. I am talking about the NOMOS and the model is the Tangente.

It's smaller than your sweet spot of 45mm with a size of just 41mm but it's a cranker and the design is timeless, very Bauhaus. It's also a little higher than your US$700 desired price point. The blued hands and conservative designs might grab your fancy.

Hope this helps.;)
