Re: Recommend a manual watch

The Stowa Antea is a beautiful watch and I'd be happy to own one. Unfortunately, I never see them for sale. The Stowa watches that I do see for sale cost much more than the 300 EU price you quote. So, in theory, the Stowa is a great buy.

I'm keen on reliability. I'd prefer something that I have to wind
rather than an automatic, but that might just be my ignorance.

Why manual? If you go automatic there are far more to
choose from, and you can easily snag something for less
than 400 quid.

As an example, Mr Java suggested Nomos, but if you can
live with an auto you can get one of these for 300 euro:

I like plain dials. My current watch is a plain military style Pulsar.


How 'bout one of these?

It's $200 here. I don't know what it would cost in
yurp.
