Seconded joining our Slack; send me your email and I'll get you added.

Definitely can make some good recommendations but budget is a big consideration. There are a lot of differences between $100, $500, $1000, and 10,000 watches, which you all listed there.

Say $500 and below

Any offering from Traska (though you might have to wait): https://www.traskawatch.com/

Baltic: https://baltic-watches.com/en/

Monta: https://montawatch.com/

Dan Henry: https://danhenrywatches.com/

These are all "microbrands" that are worth checking out and a lot are in that price range. If you find an automatic Seiko, Orient, or Hamilton within that price range that you like it will most likely be worth the money.

Just be careful to distinguish the difference between Instagram ad watches and reputable microbrands. A microbrand can give you higher quality with some great, inspired but distinct designs with reliable movements.

It makes me sad we're actively pushing people off this thread.

Yes, change is hard and MM forum is a dead man walking. Still sucks.

Instantaneous and non-instantaneous communication platforms can coexist.
