Morning all,

I recently finished a lengthy engineering course in the military and decided I wanted to mark the occasion with a watch (any excuse).

I have had a look myself but have seen some great reccomendations by people far more knowledgeable than I am in this sub in the past, so thought I would ask!

It doesn’t necessarily have to be a military heritage/tactical watch, an I would definitely prefer something analogue but wouldn’t rule out anything, the budget would be around the £1000 mark. I would like to wear the watch to work so something somewhat durable, but my days on the tools are definitely over so it wouldn’t be getting absolutely beaten up.

Any help would be appreciated!

Stay safe

    Sangin instruments - created by a US marine spec ops and loved by that community. Tricky to find but doable, I’ve tracked down five of em.

      Cheers, engineering studies definitely become a slog but so worth it in the long run! Yeah I’ve had a quick look at sinn, definitely tick alot of the boxes.
