Short review

Among the advantages of this model, we have listed the prestige brand, and this specifically means that this manufacturer has a long tradition of producing this collection and these types of watches, which dates back to the First World War. Cartier Tank WSTA0029 is a much more expensive solution on the market, and its case is made of stainless steel that has a rectangular shape and is 7.65 mm thick. So a very elegant model, and these models are also available for ladies in much more feminine variants that you can see in similar models. Silver opaline dial features blue hands and Roman numeral hour markers, while minute markers around the inner ring. The strap is made of leather and the model itself is waterproof to a depth of 30 meters

Short review

For beginners, this model is a simple solution. Its dial is crystal clear, without any chronographs and some, skeleton case or any other features. Only a black dial with silver-tone leaf-style shape hands and Roman numeral hour markers, while minute markers around the outer rim. The only thing that could be pointed out is that it has a calendar, which is an additional function, at the 3 o'clock position. Its case is made of stainless steel, with a diameter of 41 mm and a thickness of 12 mm. The bracelet is also made of stainless steel, whose width is 20mm. Its only downside is that it doesn't have a backlight, so its black dial can be hard to read in low-light conditions

✅ You Want a Versatile Accessory - Although it belongs to the group of luxury watches, in fact this model is suitable for wearing on all occasions, especially the more formal ones.

✅ You Prefer Quartz Movements - A combination of reliability and precision with minimal maintenance is what this model offers

Short review

The De Ville Prestige collection is not only suitable for women but also for men and you can view it in the similar models section. The model we singled out is all made of stainless steel, including the case, whose diameter is 24.4mm while its thickness is 6mm. So a very light and feminine model, as for men's models, they have a slightly larger case diameter, but they are also very light to wear. In this particular model, the dial contains silver-tone hands and a combination of Roman numerals (3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock positions) and diamond hour markers as hour markers. The bracelet is also made of stainless steel whose length is 6.5 inches. In terms of water resistance, similar to the Seiko model, splash-proof but not suitable for some water sports

✅ You Need Smart Notifications - As we said in the brief overview, this is one of the biggest advantages over analog and digital watches. Notifications are available to you, so you can immediately assess the urgency of the notification

✅ You Value Health and Fitness Features - An infinite number of options are available to track your rhythm

❌ You Prefer Longer Battery Life - This is one of the few disadvantages of this model, because if you use it with great intensity, charging will be almost daily. With normal use it amounts to 2-3 days.

Short review

The topic of budget watches that are at the same time high-quality is becoming more and more common today. The combination of budget with Roman numerals is even more common. The Timex Southview is one of the watches that falls into that category and we have included it in this guide. The case of this model is made of brass with a diameter of 41mm and a thickness of 8.5mm. Not so robust, but very elegant. The dial is of a simple design with hands and Roman numerals as hour markers. As for the strap, it is made of leather in brown color, the width of which is 20mm. Timex Southview belongs to the group of waterproof watches but up to a depth of 30 meters, however we do not recommend you to use it for some water sports, such as swimming and diving, it is more resistant to splashes and short immersion

✅ You Prefer Comfort and Practicality - We think that in this respect, this model leads the market. Very simple and elegant design, with a leather strap that further improves comfort

✅ You're Seeking Value - It has been known for a long time that the Timex company takes care of this balance, and this is excellently manifested in this product

❌ You Prefer a Modern Aesthetic -You won't find any modern functions here, but an ordinary watch, as a representative of classic watches as well. If you're looking for more modern models, then check out our other sections in this guide

For a mid-range price, you can hardly find a better model on the market. Tissot is a company that is very meticulous in its production, taking care of every detail, and this model just proves that. The case of the T0064071605300 model is made of stainless steel, the diameter of which is 39mm, while the thickness is 9mm. The dial is black and has gray leaf-style hands and Roman numeral hour markers, while minute markers around the outer rim. There is also a calendar at the 3 o'clock position. This model is powered by a Swiss movement and can be seen from the back of the case, which is transparent. The strap is made of leather, also in black, with a width of 19 millimeters and a length of 7.75 inches.

The next model that we present is from the famous collection Datejust 41. Of course, Rolex is the company that is perhaps the most famous in the world when it comes to watches, that almost every individual has heard of it. Model 126333GYRO is in two tones (Silver-tone and Gold-tone) and its case is made of the successful combination of Oystersteel and 18K yellow gold, known as Rolesor, which has dominated the market since the early 1930s. It has a gray dial with hands and Roman numerals as hour markers, while the calendar is at the 3 o'clock position. Bracelet are also made like the case, from the same material and its width is 21mm. With all Rolex models, water resistance is generally a strong point, and so it is with this model, which is suitable for all water activities, including diving.

Short review

The entire La Grande Classique series is very similar in terms of design. We chose the model L42092118, whose case is made of stainless steel, which has a diameter of 24.5 mm and a thickness of 5 mm. So, a very thin and feminine model for the fairer sex. It has a dial with a very simple construction, without any complications with hands and Roman numerals as hour markers and the Longines logo. The bracelet is also like the case made of stainless steel, the width of which is 18mm while the length is 7 inches. This model is waterproof but only up to a depth of 30 meters, so we do not recommend some water sports such as diving, it is more resistant to short-term immersion in water

✅ You Favor Slim and Comfortable Designs - As we wrote in the short review, it is a very thin model and a light model, so wearing this model is a real pleasure
✅ You Want Versatility in Accessorizing -If you need a watch that you will use almost every day, so that it will be suitable for all occasions, then this model is it

❌ Budget Is a Concern - Same thing as with the Rolex model. Although it is much cheaper, it is still much more expensive than other models on the market
