Mechanical Watch Recommendations Please.....
I have a 1964 Rolex Submariner "meters first" that needs some work. It was given to me by my Dad who bought it from a guy when my Dad was in Vietnam. Incidentally, my Dad was shown in a pic around that time in LIFE magazine and the watch is shown on his wrist. Kind of neat, that. The watch needs quite a bit of work so I don't wear it that often.
As such, I'm looking for a new mechanical watch. Don't care if it's automatic; I would rather prefer the winding ritual each day. Leaning toward a Hamilton Field watch but I'm wondering if there are any mechanical watch hybrids out there that combine a field watch with a rotating diver type bezel? I like a field watch style more than a diver watch, but keeping track of elapsed time using a rotating bezel is really handy.
Budget of around $500 or less.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.
