He should be able to get a SS Yachtmaster II in the price range he is looking in. Granted, on the very upper end, but that would be my choice.

Lots of good suggestions but to me none of these move the needle that much in terms of being that different from your sub in terms of watch class. I’d say to get the watch you really want.

The way I see it is that really none of these Rolexes mentioned are a true step up from what you have. The Pepsi is a hot commodity like the Daytona but a lot of it is hype.

I have a Patek 6119R that is killer but I don’t wear it that much. I also have the Iwc Petronas ceratanium watch that is really great but is a chrono like my omega ck2998 and hesalite speedy.

I have the bluesy sub, milgauss z blue, skydweller blue, Wimbledon 41 DJ, DJ 40 blue, and Batman. I love them all but the sky dweller is probably my favorite.

If I were you and wanted a statement piece in the dress category in that price range, I’d look for a well kept but used Iwc Portugieser perpetual calendar. You can get a precious metal watch that is a perpetual calendar and a lot of watch for the money in the 18-20K range.

I’m looking at those now but also have my eyes set on a day date and Pepsi meteorite dial.

Bump to ask if anyone knows what watch this is.

I really like a lot of the Glashutte designs. Why not get something a little dressy since you have the sub date?

Is that the only view that you have of it? Hard to tell if that’s a skeletonized dial or if it’s just silver.

I may be completely off base but it doesn’t look like any luxury watch that I’m familiar with. Very thick bezel with wide knurling, long angular lugs, crown guards, not really sure.

I’m not OP. Just jumped in here because I didn’t want to start a thread just for that question above.

It's like a Sinn 104 on a fine link bracelet with a different bezel and skeletonized dial.

That's all I got.

Never any issues with Seiko or Citizen.

I’m too much of a loser for any of the Swiss jobs with the possible exception of Tissot to Tag.

I love the blancpain 50 fathoms, but it's really similar to your sub.

Since you already have a diving watch, an IWC is a nice compliment.
