I have a 100$ Seiko watch that fits all my needs. Why do you need/want an expensive watch, and what is the obsession with having expensive watch? Seems like man-jewelry to me, which I am against

not much good if you don't run. but if you do run, then it will tell you how far you've gone, and will determine your instantaneous pace. very helpful for the concerned runner. and very neurotic-making.

12700 retail but about 4k less "grey market" (no manufacturer warranty)

If you really want to do this, tell us what you want. Chrono/no chrono? White/Black face? Leather/metal strap? Auto/quartz?

Do tell.

i dont think 90% of people notice or care about watch brands, so it probably wouldn't look like anything.

however, some logic is that while neither is a good investment, a watch depreciates a lot less, lasts forever, can be passed on, etc.

chrono: no, but yes date.
face: doesn't matter.
strap: metal bracelet.
movement: auto unless a jacob.

You can browse Baume & Mercier at their website for the entire catalog.
They're like the 5th or 6th oldest watch maker.
