I had the silver dial version of this watch a while back, but I sold it. I regretted this decision ever since. RGM has assembled a few more so I jumped at the chance. These are really nice manual wind watches.

I think I'm going to start on their low end with a maxi marine chronometer. I love others they have but they get steep in price real quick. Big fan of the freak models and the more artistic ones. Really like the sonata silicium. But it's not like I can afford one let alone get my hands on one.

If Ulysse Nardin is the brand you like, the Maxi Marine Chrono is a good pick. There are enough of them out there to get a deal on in the used market. When you are ready to make a move, check out http://www.pduggan.com/

He is in Boston and has a good reputation with some big time collectors I've met. Great prices, warranty and you'll see the watch in person first since you are from the Bay State.

New watch, can't beat Singapore dealers.

My favorite online store is http://www.ashford.com

I've bought many watches from them but not the RGM

I've gotten on this Invicta kick lately, here's my latest. And then a Swiss Legend as well, not sure on this brand yet, a little cheaper but they have a lot of nice looking models: __________________ Overtime pays more because of what you're missing, money isn't everything.

Your Swiss Legend reminds me of a Technomarine.

What are everyones thoughts on the Citizen Eco Drives? I found one locally that I really like and might add it to my Christmas list. Are these decent watches or should I look elsewhere?

I have a an Eco-Drive it's a titanium and is light as a feather
One thing I have been told is that there's a battery inside the watch to store electricity (when it's dark) and the life of that battery is >10years. I like it alot though. I am lately digging the automatic watches and have 3 invictas and 1 Seiko and fake Rolex Auto. I also have a fairly nice Victorinox Chrono
