·I don’t talk about sleeper watches because I want to be able to buy them cheap before everyone else finds out.

·Seikos from the 60s-70s and the 7828 series from the early 80s Quartz wars are still so undervalued that they are pretty much the only brand that are affordable at reasonable prices . But don't hang around too long to pick one or several up before the rest of the watch world catches on .

·Seiko Monopusher chronographs, I think @sliceoftime_ has/had a couple (I can't keep up with your collection, man...)
First Seiko chronograph, super clean design, rare, a monopusher, etc.

For me, some Zenith, Breitling, Lemania, and many more have some sleeper models.

·I’d say Roamer chronographs. Also, I can’t for the life of me figure out why vintage Eterna’s aren’t doing better. They have everything going for them.

On the vintage side they should have a higher profile but it could be that low supply reinforces the low profile, e.g. very few early-70s Valjoux 72 chronos ever come up for sale.

Happy to have grabbed one when I had the opportunity.... but these aren’t really sleepers as they fetch quite a lot already.
I think the sleepers would be the earlier ones, and there have been some beauties posted on OF over the last few years.
