    I think Casio and Orient getting top 16 in this price point is an amazing achievement considering all of these models are under 250$ while their competitors are above 500$.

      I agree, but to me it’s not surprising. I have two Orient Bambino’s One with a green dial, and one with the Pearl white. They are my “everyday go to’s” even though I have a couple of carriers and some Longines and Tissot which are significantly “more watch!” There’s something about their elegant functionality, at their price point, which gives me a certain peace if not joy! I’m just not as relaxed when I’m wearing my Cartier’! Their Kamasu dive watch looks and feels really good on the wrist, and is on my list. I own a Hydro Conquest which is a bit higher spec, but I actually prefer the fur. finish and size of the Kamasu. Orients got it going on!

    I been thinking about the Seiko Green Alpininst. Seiko makes many watches. Many are good looking. The Green Alpininst I believe is a watch
    Men like looking at. It is a steel watch that looks like a classic. Not too dressy but dressy enough. It is not a diver but a field watch. But has
    the strength of a diver. It is original looking with out being a Submamariner clone. It is a solid watch which people can afford without feeling they settled for less. It is unique. There are few watches that you look at that you admire it's looks after bought it. I even like it better than the Grand Seiko watches. That is why it came in second in your survey. I own several vintage Omega watches. I like vintage Omega watches. But the Watch which is not over priced is a watch brings me pleasure. It is one those rare watches that come by that you know is a winner!

For when you want to actually tell the time, if that makes sense... then the Hamilton is just so on point and is so well designed too, I'm so glad that I made that investment and its my number 1 watch and the one that makes it out of the box the most for sure.

    I had a PRX automatic with the blue waffle dial (very nice looking and comfortable to wear) and it developed helicopter rotor so I had to send it in for repair. Them my MIDO with basically the same movement developed the same issue. I sold both watches. I also have an Alpinist that looks very much like the one in the story. It’s been great. It will be a long time before I pick up another watch with any variant of the powermatic 80 movement

      @@harveymanfrantinsingin7373 I bought the PRX new, and it started acting up within 6 or so months. To be fair to Tissot, they repaired it under warranty. I bought the Mido used so I don't really know how long it lasted before developing helicopter rotor. I also have a Citizen Tsuyosa which is IMO a better all around watch than the PRX. The citizen suffers from a crappy clasp on the bracelet, but in pretty much every other way is equal to or better than the PRX, and I've never had a Citizen/Miyota movement go bad like that. Both the Mido and the PRX were great to look at and wear, but that Powermatic80 (or whatever MIDO calls it when they use it) is a dealbreaker for me.

    My issue is that the integrated bracelet Tissots are in vogue NOW - but which one will remain timeless and be applicable for longer? I feel like this result was based as much on current style trends as much as the quality of the watch - and I certainly think all of the watches here offer a lot so no dig at the PRX but I feel it will date itself as an overall design much faster than an Alpinist.

I wore the Khaki the most because it is really an every day watch. The Alpinist due to it being green I wore it not as often. I will probably buy them both again but in different models.

    PRX is a worthy and rightful winner. Certina DS Action Diver 43mm with ceramic bezel is a hidden gem in my humble opinion. Too bad this watch isn't widely available in the US.

    Proud owner of all four finalists (granted, my Alpinist is the originally Sarb). All incredible watches, and this is how I would list them:
    1. Seiko Alpinist
    2. Hamilton Khaki Auto
    3. Tissot PRX (I have the quartz version)
    4. Seiko Cocktail
