Among the best watches under $10,000 are many of the watch industry's most iconic pieces. If you're in the market for your first "icon" watch (and you're looking to buy new rather than vintage or pre-owned), here are the 21 best watches under $10,000 to consider.
Building a watch collection is generally a progression, beginning with the accumulation of a handful of modestly priced favorites and building toward the quest for pricier and more coveted models as one's knowledge and disposable income grow. We've showcased many worthwhile models in many price categories, but it's the sweet spot between $5,000 to about $10,000 that many consider the most fertile ground for finding some of those Holy Grails of timekeeping from some of the world's legendary watch brands. If you're in the market for your first "icon" watch (and you're looking to buy new rather than vintage or pre-owned), here are 21 of the best watches under $10,000 to consider, all topping out below the five-figure price barrier.
Price: $5,900 Reference:SBGM221, Case Size: 39.5mm, Case Height: 13.7mm, Lug Width: 19mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 30 meters, Movement: GS 9S66
In 2017 Grand Seiko released the SBGM221 GMT which has stood as one of the brand’s best values to date. Inspired by some of their 1960s designs, the SBGM221 is characterized by that simple ivory-colored dial and vibrant blue GMT hand not to mention the eminently wearable 39.5mm wide steel case. And then there is the Zaratsu polishing throughout the case and dial which plays with the light in a way that only Grand Seiko seems able to do. The Caliber 9S66 is a tried and tested “true” GMT movement that allows you do independently adjust the hour hand and operates at 4 Hz with a 72-hour power reserve. At $5,400 it’s hard to find a versatile travel watch that can do as much as well as the Grand Seiko SBGM221.
Price: $9,900, Reference:AB0137211B1P1, Case Size: 46mm, Case Height: 13.9mm, Lug Width: 24mm, Lug to Lug: 51.8mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 30 meters, Movement: Breitling Automatic Caliber B01
Breitling secured its leadership role in the field of aviation watches with the release of the Navitimer in 1952. Developed for the AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association), the watch became a mainstay of commercial airline cockpits thanks to its innovative slide-rule bezel, which allowed pilots to make crucial flight calculations on the wrist. In 2010, Breitling started equipping the Navitimer with its in-house Caliber B01, which features an integrated column-wheel chronograph function and a substantial power reserve of 70 hours.
The stainless steel case measures a robust 46mm in diameter with pump-style chronograph pushers, and the aforementioned slide-rule bezel, whose fluted edge makes it easy to rotate in both directions. The tricompax dial has contrasting black subdials for the chronograph counters and running seconds and, in a nod to the model’s origins, the winged logo of the AOPA below the Breitling logo at 12 o’clock. Really, any Navitimer chronograph would handily be on the list of thebest watches under $10,000.
Price: $9,250, Case Size: 42mm, Thickness: 15.1mm, Lug-to-Lug: 50.5mm, Lug Width: 22mm, Water Resistance: 200m, Crystal: Sapphire, Movement: Automatic Breitling Caliber B01
The most recent update of Breitling’s historical Chronomat collection takes inspiration from the fondly remembered 1980s models, resurrecting those watches’ ratcheting bezels with easy-to-grip rider tabs and adding a functional element: the tabs at 12 o’clock and 3 o’clock are interchangeable, which means the first 15-minute interval on the scale can be used for either counting up or counting down.
The Chronomat B01 42 rolled off the runway in 2020, with a substantial but not overly imposing case diameter of 42mm and a profile slightly over 15mm. Its tricompax dial, here in a two-tone “panda” configuration, has subdials at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock for chronograph minutes and hours and running seconds, respectively. The chronograph pushers flank a fluted crown that screws down securely into the case for a 200-meter water resistance. The timepiece contains the Breitling Caliber B01, which holds a lengthy 70-hour power reserve, and comes on a distinctive “Rouleaux” integrated bracelet, a retro element resurrected from earlier generations of Breitling watches.
Price: $8,100, Reference: W5330003, Case Size: 44mm x 34mm, Case Height: 9.5mm, Lug Width: 25mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 30 meters, Movement: Cartier Automatic Caliber 1904-PS MC
Louis Cartier created the Tank watch in 1917, deriving its rectangular, curvilinear case shape as well as its name from a French military vehicle used during the First World War. Perhaps fittingly, the recipient of the first Cartier Tank watch was U.S. General John “Black Jack” Pershing, a commander of the Allied forces. The Tank has been a coveted style object ever since, in a variety of sizes, colorways and materials designed to appeal to men and ladies alike.
Delivering the most bang for the buck as one of the best watches under $10,000 is this 44mm model in steel, containing a Cartier in-house automatic movement, Caliber 1904-PS MC (the “1904” denoting the year of Cartier’s founding, the “MC” standing for “Manufacture Cartier”). The silvered flinqué dial hosts the hallmark tank Roman numeral hour markers and blued sword hands, along with a date window at 3 o’clock and small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock. On the right side of the emblematic shaped case is another Cartier detail, a faceted crown topped off with a synthetic blue spinel. The case’s sapphire back displays the movement and the decorative Geneva waves that adorn its rotor and plates.
Price: $9,610, Case Size: 42mm Case Height: 12.67mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 50 meters, Movement: Automatic ETA Caliber 2894-2
Chopard’s decades-long partnership with the Mille Miglia series of classic car rallies has yielded a wealth of sharp, motorsport-inspired wristwatches with a distinctly masculine appeal, at a more accessible price point than many of the maison’s high-jewelry ladies’ watches and its higher-end L.U.C series. The dial of the Classic Chronograph has large, legible Arabic numerals in a retro font used on the dashboards of the type of vintage cars that take part in the Mille Miglia rallies.
The three subtly snailed subdials at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, for running seconds, chronograph hours and chronograph minutes, respectively, are joined on the dial by a racing-inspired tachymeter scale on the flange and a red-arrow-shaped Mille Miglia logo below 12 o’clock. Two pump pushers flank the screwed crown on the 42mm steel case to operate the chronograph. The black rubber strap carries on the theme with a textured pattern that evokes the treads of Dunlop racing tires. Chopard has consistently iterated on the Mille Miglia and it's a well-earned spot on the best watches under $10,000 as far as we're concerned.
Price: CHF 6,400, Reference: A984/04252 - 984.111.20/V705 AN52 Case Size: 42mm Case Height: 11.6mm, Lug width: 21/18mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 100 meters, Movement: Automatic Caliber CO 984, based on ETA 2894-2
The first Admiral’s Cup regatta was run in 1957, and Corum — then a relatively young watch brand, founded in 1955 — supplied the official timepiece of the biennial yacht race three years later. The aptly named Admiral’s Cup watch became an iconic watch for sailing enthusiasts, cleverly deploying colorful nautical pennants, used for signaling during races, at the hour markers. The last Admiral’s Cup took place in 2003, but Corum has continued to update its 1960s classic and has since expanded the original model into a full-fledged collection.
Channeling the spirit of the original Admiral’s Cup most directly is this 42mm chronograph model with the 12 emblematic pennant hour markers in full color, swept over by luminous, openworked dauphine hands along with three subdials at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock and a tilted date window at 4:30. The screwed crown, nestled inside protective shoulders and the two pedal-style chronograph push-buttons, helps ensure a seaworthy water resistance of 100 meters. The automatic movement inside, Caliber CO 984, is an ETA base caliber modified by Corum and offering a respectable 42-hour power reserve. The steel bracelet offers additional value for this quirkier pick for one of the best watches under $10,000.
Price: $6,900, Case Size: 41mm, Thickness: 12.5mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 100 meters, Movement: Automatic Spring Drive Caliber 9R65
Grand Seiko released its first “Snowflake” edition, Ref. SBGA011, exclusively to the Japanese market in 2005. The sequel, Ref. SBGA211, was released in the 2017, the year that Grand Seiko split from parent Seiko to become an independent brand, and differs from the original “Snowflake” in one significant detail: the pristine white, snow-textured dial features the “GS” applied logo and “Grand Seiko” text at 12 o’clock and the simple “Spring Drive” text at 6 o’clock — as opposed to the classic Seiko logo at 12 and “Grand Seiko Spring Drive” at 6. It should be no surprise to find this Japanese icon on the list of the best watches under $10,000.
The 41mm case is constructed from Grand Seiko’s “high intensity” titanium, an alloy that’s stronger but 40 percent lighter than stainless steel, and finished to a high gloss with Zaratsu polishing, which allows for sharp, ridged borders between mirrored and hairline surfaces. The elegantly faceted indexes and razor-style hands are silver-polished, while a blued steel seconds hand sweeps around the snowy dial. The highly accurate Spring Drive Caliber 9R65 inside, oscillating behind a sapphire caseback, provides a three-day power reserve.
Price: $8,300, Case Size: 42mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 50 meters, Movement: Automatic Caliber HUB1110, based on Sellita SW300-1
It’s the more in-your-face Big Bang models that garner the most attention from enthusiasts but Hublot’s subtler, elegant Classic Fusion is not only a more versatile option for those with smaller wrists (and more modest tastes); it’s also the model that most faithfully recalls the earliest Hublot watches of the 1980s, which made history as the first gold watches on rubber straps.
This blue-dialed, titanium-cased model is suitably dressy while still sporting hallmark Hublot details like the six visible H-shaped screws on the bezel, the stylized “H” counterweight on the central seconds hand, and the smoothly integrated lined blue rubber strap. The 42mm case has an array of brushed and polished finishes, while the dial is enhanced with a sunray motif. The Sellita-based, self-winding HUB1110 movement ticking inside the case (rather than the in-house Unico caliber) contributes to making this model one of the few Hublots at these dimensions that you can find below the $10,000 threshold.
Price: $9,200, Case Size: 43mm, Case Height: 13.6mm, Lug to Lug: 52mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 100 meters, Movement: IWC Automatic Caliber 82100
IWC’s first Big Pilot’s watch, made for the German Air Force in 1940, basically defined the look of a classic military aviation watch and its return to the modern lineup in 2002 kicked off an entire family of Pilot’s timepieces that has taken center stage in the Schaffhausen brand’s portfolio. In 2021, IWC engaged enthusiasts who have clamored for the Big Pilot’s style while lamenting its massive proportions (46mm, still smaller than the 53mm original) with the release of the Big Pilot 43 (or BP43), which not only offers a more universally wearable 43mm case size but also a new quick-change construction that allows the wearer to switch easily between strap and bracelet options. As far as pilot's watches go, there are few icons you can name that would be better suited for the best watches under $10,000.
The dial is also evocative of the historical model’s utilitarian simplicity, sporting just the large, luminous Arabic numerals, sword hands, and the hallmark inverted orientation triangle at 12 o’clock and eschewing the date window of previous models for an even purer symmetry. The movement, automatic Caliber 82100, features IWC’s highly efficient Pellaton winding system and carries a 60-hour power reserve. In another departure from previous Big Pilots, the BP 43’s movement is also on display behind a sapphire exhibition caseback.
Price: $5,500, Case Size: 40mm, Thickness: 10.9mm, Lug to Lug: 49mm, Lug Width: 20mm, Water Resistance: 100m, Crystal: Sapphire, Movement: Automatic IWC 32111
IWC’s historical footprint in the field of aviation watches goes beyond the one established in World War II with the Big Pilot. In 1948, Britain’s RAF commissioned from the Swiss maker a special timepiece for its members, built to exacting specifications, called the Mark 11. Notable for its smaller dimensions, optimum legibility, and antimagnetic case, the Mark 11 remained standard issue for the RAF and other military aviation squads for decades.
The Mark XX, introduced to the civilian market by IWC in 2022, is the modern successor to that historical trendsetter. It features a modest yet substantial case diameter of 40mm and a sizable screw-down crown. The steel case’s finish is mostly matte brushed, and the dial (in either black or sunray blue) has the historical orientation triangle at 12 o’clock along with a ring of big, luminous Arabic hour numerals. Inside, behind a solid caseback, is IWC’s in-house automatic Caliber 32111, among whose impressive attributes are a 120-hour power reserve.
Price: $10,600, Case Size: 45.6mm x 27.4mm, Lug Width: 20mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 30 meters, Movement: Jaeger-LeCoultre Manually Wound Caliber 822
Jaeger-LeCoultre’s signature dress watch, the Reverso, was originally designed as a sports watch, its reversible swiveling case making it a practical timekeeper for polo players who wore it during a match to protect the crystal from being struck by errant mallets and balls. In production since 1931, the Reverso is now available in numerous variations, some at the highest level of complications, but the core three-handed Reverso Tribute model, which faithfully echoes the classical Art Deco look of its ancestor, can still be had for just a hair above that holy line of demarcation at $10,600.
The rectangular case has the model’s clean lines and gadroons, the sunray dial (here in a warm burgundy red) features Dauphine hands, trapezoidal applied hour indexes, and a small seconds sundial at 6 o’clock, and the back side of the case offers a clean metallic canvas for personalization. Jaeger-LeCoultre’s manually wound manufacture Caliber 822, shaped to fit the case’s soft rectangular dimensions, beats inside. In another callback to the Reverso’s polo-playing origins, the leather strap is from Casa Fagliano, an Argentinean purveyor of high-end polo boots.
Price: $5,650, Case Size: 47.5mm, Case Height: 16.3mm, Lug Width: 25mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 30 meters, Movement: Longines Automatic Caliber L699
When Charles Lindbergh made his record-setting transatlantic flight in his Spirit of Saint Louis in 1927, Longines was the official timekeeper. Afterward, in 1931, Lindbergh collaborated with the Swiss watchmaker to create the Hour Angle watch, a wrist-borne timepiece whose cleverly designed dial and rotating bezel allowed early pilots to make helpful longitude calculations right on their wrists.
The modern version of this forward-thinking timepiece (whose functionality has nevertheless been rendered obsolete by electronic cockpit instruments, of course) is very similar to that vintage model, with a massive 47.5mm steel case; a bulbous, vintage-style onion crown; a polished, white lacquered dial with blued hands and a central rotating disk for calculations; and the bidirectional rotating calculator bezel. The automatic Caliber L699 ticks inside behind a period-appropriate solid steel caseback. Longines, of course, offers many worthwhile choices well under $5,000, but for just a little more you can own a modern version of a watch that truly had a historic impact on the history of aviation. For those of us obsessed with watchmaking history there are few icons with as much IYKYK cache in the list of the best watches under $10,000.
Price: $6,200,Case Size: 42mm, Thickness: 13.6mm, Lug Width: 20mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 300m, Movement: Automatic Omega 8800
The Omega Seamaster Diver 300M made its debut in 1993 and shortly thereafter achieved cinematic glory as the go-to watch of superspy James Bond. Now available in dozens of colorways and executions, this stylish tool watch can be had for just over $5,000 in a stainless steel case on a sporty rubber strap. The case’s unidirectional bezel has a scalloped edge for easy gripping and a ceramic insert with a white enamel scale to set dive times; its 300-meter water resistance is ensured by a screw-down crown and enhanced with a helium release valve. The green dial, also made of ceramic, hosts a laser-engraved wave pattern and skeletonized hands. Despite the model’s extreme water resistance, Omega has installed a sapphire crystal caseback, offering a view of the automatic, co-axial Caliber 8800. An obvious yet preeminent entry for best watches under $10,000.
Price: $7,300, Case Size: 42mm, Lug Width: 20mm, Crystal: Hesalite, Water Resistance: 50 meters, Movement: Manual-wind Omega 3861
The Omega Speedmaster is not only the first watch on the moon; it’s also often the first “serious watch” in a budding connoisseur’s collection. Best of all for traditionalists, the contemporary version of the watch is still more or less identical to the one that Buzz Aldrin rocked on the Apollo 11 mission more than 50 years ago, with a 42mm steel case, a hesalite crystal over the tricompax dial, luminous hands and hour markers, and the trendsetting tachymeter-scale bezel that speaks to the Speedy’s origins as a watch for auto racing. There is likely no iconic chronograph that dominates more than the Speedy on the list of thebest watches under $10,000.
It’s even equipped with a modern version of the hand-wound movement that powered the original, Omega Caliber 1861, with a 3Hz frequency and a 48-hour power reserve. With this reference, Omega takes the adage “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” to heart. The ground-floor price is for the version on a nylon strap; you can upgrade to a steel bracelet for $7,300, and if you ante up to $7,600 (strap) or $8,000 (bracelet), you can get the model with an open caseback with a view of that historic caliber.
Price: $9,200, Case Size: 44mm, Lug Width: 24mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 300 meters, Movement: Panerai automatic Caliber P.9010
Like its predecessor, the Radiomir, Panerai’s Luminor took its name from the luminous substance that was applied to its dial, which aided the watch’s first users, Italian navy frogmen of the 1940s, in reading the time on underwater missions. What made the Luminor more famous, however, was its use of the patented crown-protection bridge device that now identifies the model from across a room. Panerai has expanded the Luminor series to encompass a variety of complications and high-tech case materials, but the basic stainless steel, three-hand Marina model is still a favorite and comes in at under $10K.
Powered by the automatic manufacture Caliber P.9010, which imparts a three-day power reserve, the watch has a stainless steel cushion-shaped case whose 300-meter water resistance is ensured by the crown-locking device on its right side. The blue sunray dial in the pictured model is constructed in Panerai’s hallmark multi-layered “sandwich” style and features a balanced look with a date at 3 o’clock and small seconds at 9 o’clock to accompany the luminous central sword hands.
Price: $7,750, Case Size: 40mm, Case Height: 12mm, Lug Width: 20mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 100 meters, Movement: Rolex Automatic COSC-certified Caliber 3230
While getting a hold of a new (rather than pre-owned) Submariner or Daytona is unlikely without a five-figure outlay, Rolex’s most under-the-radar icon — if that’s a thing — is still one of the best watches under $10,000, especially in light of the very well-received revamp the model received back at Watches & Wonders 2022. Released in 1945 as a tribute piece for the British RAF pilots who turned the tide of WWII, the Air-King is actually Rolex’s oldest model still being produced and sports its most aviation-inspired design, with a 24-hour dial punctuated by a large 3, 6, and 9 at their respective hour positions and an orientation triangle at 12 o’clock.
The emblematic Oyster case measures 40mm in diameter and its water resistance is aided by the screw-down crown, now protected by crown guards in the latest model. The time can be read on Rolex’s hallmark “Mercedes” hands while a seconds hand in Rolex green traverses the dial. Like all modern Rolex watches, it contains an in-house movement, the self-winding COSC-certified Caliber 3230, which is chock full of patented technologies and is accessible only to trusted Rolex watch repairers with special tools.
Price: $7,500, Case Size: 36mm, Case Height: 11.5 mm, Lug Width: 19mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 100 meters, Movement: Automatic Rolex 3230
While its original incarnation, launched back in 1953, was targeted at mountaineers rather than grunts, the Rolex Explorer has long carried the “field watch” banner in the megabrand’s varied collection, with its simple, legible three-handed dial and modest dimensions; as of the most recent version in 2021, the Explorer is once again available in its original 36mm case size. Inside the case, made of Rolex’s corrosion-resistant “Oystersteel,” is another recent upgrade, Rolex in-house Caliber 3230, packed with the expected array of up-to-the-minute Rolex-patented technologies, including the Chronergy escapement with its blue Parachrom hairspring, and a “Superlative Chronometer” certification for accuracy. The dial’s hands and hour markers glow a bright blue in the dark thanks to generous coatings of Rolex’s proprietary Chromalight lume.
Price: $8,200, Case Size: 44mm, Case Height: 15.27mm, Lug Width: 22mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 100 meters, Movement: Automatic Caliber HEUER02
Named for the Carrera Panamerica road race by its creator, founding family scion and former CEO Jack Heuer, the TAG Heuer Carrera made its debut in 1964 and swiftly became a trendsetter in the genre of motorsport-inspired chronograph wristwatches with its recessed subdials and minute-scale flange. This sporty-elegant two-tone model houses the automatic Caliber Heuer 02 inside its sleek but sizeable 44mm steel case, which uses rose gold for details like the pushers and crown and black ceramic for the stationary techymeter bezel.
Gold is also used for the hands and applied indexes on the three-register dial, with subdials at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock. Made in house, the self-winding movement includes a column-wheel chronograph mechanism, stores a power reserve of 80 hours and winds its mainspring with a stylized rotor inspired by a steering wheel. The watch’s leather strap fastens to the wrist with a push button-operated safety clasp with an engraved TAG Heuer shield logo. And this is just the first of the two-tone chronographs on the list ofbest watches under $10,000.
Price: $7,000 - $8,675, Case Size: 41mm, Case Height: 15mm, Lug Width: 22mm, Lug to Lug: 50mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 200 meters, Movement: Tudor Automatic COSC-certified Caliber MT5813
If there’s a watch model barely a decade old that deserves to be called an icon (and of course, opinions on that may vary), it’s Tudor’s Black Bay, which has been at the forefront of the Rolex-owned brand’s portfolio since its return to the U.S. in 2013. The Black Bay Chronograph is even more of a newcomer, joining the Tudor lineup in 2017 and already cultivating a substantial following of its own, most hovering in price around $5,000. For a slightly higher price, you can access the most luxurious version of the Black Bay Chrono, introduced just recently at Watches & Wonders Geneva, the S&G model with a brushed-and-polished steel case with yellow-gold bezel, crown and chronograph pushers.
The bezel frames a matte black anodized aluminum insert with an etched tachymeter scale. The black, domed bicompax dial is pure Black Bay in its design elements, including the “snowflake” handset, inspired by vintage Tudor dive watches, and large dot hour indexes. The movement is Tudor’s chronometer-rated Caliber MT5813, a self-winding integrated chronograph movement developed in partnership with Breitling that boasts a 70-hour power reserve.
Price: CHF 9,200, Reference: 1183-310-3/43, Case Size: 42mm, Case Height: 11.1mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 50 meters, Movement: Automatic Ulysse Nardin Caliber UN-118
To many, Ulysse Nardin’s most iconic watch is the disruptive, idiosyncratic Freak, which the maison introduced in 2001 and has been refining ever since. However, more classical in its design and more evocative of Ulysse Nardin’s origins as a provider of chronometers to navies in the 19th and 20th centuries, is the Marine Torpilleur, which takes its name from a historical type of torpedo on battleships. It's not the most obvious icon to make the cut for best watches under $10,000 but it's a singularly appealing watch.
The steel case and marine-blue dial take inspiration from a vintage sea captain’s chronometer, with Roman numerals, ornate hands, and a stacked subdial arrangement, with the smaller subdial at 12 o’clock tracking the watch’s power reserve and the larger one at 6 o’clock serving as a running seconds indicator with an inset round date window. Ulysse Nardin’s automatic UN-118 movement animates the watch, amassing a 60-hour power reserve. Each watch has a plaque on the side of its case with an individual model number, and is mounted on a blue rubber strap that harmonizes with the dial.
Price: $9,800 (on strap), Case Size: 38mm, Case Height: 12.9mm, Lug Width: 20mm, Crystal: Sapphire, Water Resistance: 50 meters, Movement: Automatic El Primero Caliber 3600
Zenith made its biggest and most lasting impact on watchmaking history with the launch of the El Primero chronograph caliber in 1969, and one of the very first watches to contain that groundbreaking high-frequency automatic movement was recently resurrected for a modern audience as the Chronomaster Original. The watch’s modest 38mm steel case mimics the dimensions of the increasingly collectible vintage model, Ref. A386, and the tricolor execution of the three subdials — blue, silver, and gray — has become a visual shorthand for a watch with an El Primero movement. Showcased behind a sapphire caseback, the movement beats at a brisk frequency of 36,600 vph, meaning its integrated stopwatch function, driven by a column wheel, can measure times to 1/10 second of accuracy, as evidenced by the central chronograph hand on the dial, which makes a complete sweep every 10 seconds rather than 60, tallying 60 seconds at 3 o’clock and 60 elapsed minutes at 9 o’clock while the running seconds occupy the subdial at 9 o’clock. While this wraps up our iconic picks forbest watches under $10,000 in 2025 we will be sure to keep updating this increasingly competitive list.

Some very nice pieces in there, but the Snoopy by Omega is the real gem
Some really nice pieces, but the Snoopy from Omega, is the gem in the group.
Typo on the Longines Lindbergh referencing an Omega 3861 movement in the caption
HUBOT?!?!?! no. absolutely not. Nico would be dissapointed
Cartier Santos ought to have a mention
Great article. Comprehensive list with some gems thrown into the conversation
