Ha, I'm glad you like it better now Ali. It really is a completely different watch when you see it irl compared to most pics. The only problem is the function. My daily watch is a chrono as well and I never use the function. The Memovox I'm sure has a much more usefull function when planning meetings etc. However, I'm not so sure about the Memovox design...

Anyway Kevin, I say go for a JLC

 

I am a bit of a watch nut so let me lay it out for ya in order of preference

1st place
JLC master calendar . Most arresting watch of all

2nd
Panerai black seal. How can you go wrong with a watch like this? You won't tire of the brown and black.

3rd
IWC Portuguese FA Jones. simple elegance but a bit bare

 

Master Calendar is still #1 as of right now. Also being thrown in is this JLC master geographic. The black dial with the orange strap is stunning. Only problem is they have since replaced this model, so I would have to find LNIB. I think that the dial is stunning, but I know I wouldn't be using the complication too much. However, I guess with a day,date,month, I generally always know the month (and sometimes the day), so who knows!

 

^ Very nice but I would want to see it on a black strap.... probably more versatile.

 

^Agreed. Sharpe watch tho TCF.

 

Every suggested watch. Crap! Just crap!

 

Have you given any thought to a royal oak 15300. that is a great watch and in your price range in the secondary market

 

Not a big RO fan. Looking for a classier watch.

 

8k used

that's a beauty but not unlike their others it's only 39mm correct?
Still just Beautiful.


Kevin you are all about that JLC. Don't stray it's pretty. Don't get a 2nd IWC until you've got a few more is my suggestion.
