    Hi All
    I was in a market for a GMT watch. I could not find anything that I liked except this Tag Heur that fits my budget too at $2000 brand new after all discounts.
    https://www.tagheuer.com/en/watches...alibre-7-automatic-watch-41-mm-waz211a-ba0875

    I love how it looks and feels on my wrist and also like the fact that it has bezel marked with 24 hour markers ( which is actually a must have criteria) which I dint find at this price level.

    Before buying it I just wanted to ask you experts once if this is a good purchase. As in from looks and feels wise I love it, my question is more about the machinery inside, if you may.
    I have gone through oddboys old post about helping him find a new GMT and while all were excellent suggestions but somehow none appealed to my heart.

    Many thanks in advance and have a great day.

    Edit - Forgot to mention that the only other watch that I liked is this one - https://www.jomashop.com/certina-watch-c032-429-11-051-00.html . Thats a huge price gap and as of now I havent been able to shortlist any other model that fits my criteria. If money is not the factir then which one is a better buy ?

    See if you can pick it up grey or lightly used - TAGs really don't perform well at their brand-new price points, but at their usual ~35-40% depreciation they're more attractive.
    Also, you can get much better GMTs with good ETA movements for under 2k; this one's powered by a bargain-bin Sellita.
