Hi
I am looking for a watch as a gift for my wife but the specifications are a bit exacting and I'm having trouble tracking down anything which fits the bill - suggestions would be very welcome.
It needs to be:
a) small (<28mm dia);
b) easy to read dial (pref with luminous hands and marks);
c) a sports watch she can genuinely use in sport (ie skiing, windsurfing, hiking, running);
d) a rubber or fabric strap;
e) no more that £1000 (say around$2000
f) available in the UK
I'd like it to be:
g) a chronometer;
e) automatic (rather than quartz).
The nearest thing I've seen is the Victorinox Swiss Army Crusader but that is a) 30mm and b) quartz. Any recommendations anyone.
quite a few watches that would fit that specs and would way cheaper than $2000 unless you want to add diamonds to it, forget the auto because most women don't give a stuff about that, and a quartz would outperform a chronometer anyway.
and with any "sports" watch that is used in hostile enviroments it should be checked and pressure tested at least every 2 years, so being a quartz won't matter since it will have to be opened to check and clean/replace the gaskets
.
