The Affordable Observer's Watch
Although the style has been around since the 40’s the past few years have seen a growth in the popularity in the Beobachtungs-Uhren (Nav. B-Uhr or Nav. B) watches. These were worn during WWII by pilots and had some specific guidelines for their design. They had to be large (normally 55mm) as as to be easy to read, and contain luminous paint so as to be legible at night. A large crown was required so as to be operated with gloves and a movement with a hacking seconds hand.The watches from the 1940’s will run you well into the thousands of dollars, well above the budget of many a watchnerd. And the 55mm size makes them prohibitive for most wrist sizes. Fortunately a number of brands have come to our aide and provided a range of options for the watch enthusiast to consider when shopping for a watch in this iconic design.Parnis Pilot Watches$75 – $150 USD47mmAutomatic movement, type variesSource: Parnis WatchStarting on the low end, we have the Parnis brand, straight out

Hello! New here and have a used watch question
Hi folks, been lurking awhile and I thought I would finally break the ice. Since I am planning on purchasing a Speedy 3211.30 sometime in the near future I have been lurking here and there and found an ad on ebay for the exact watch I am looking for. Trouble is, I have watched the listing expire and get reposted 3 times now. The starting bid is $1900 which seems fair to me, but never any takers. What gives?Men's Omega Speedmaster S/Steel Chronograph 3211.30.00 While I prefer to spend this large of a sum of money on something new so I can give it my own history, the expense may force me to go used.Anyway, just looking for your educated thoughts on possible reasons this watch isn't selling. Is the price not reasonable?

Challenge for all you watch buffs
ok i have found the watch dial colour of my dreams. Problem is that the watch itself has a case diameter of 50mm. Im a lady so as you can imagine this is way to big for me. this is the watchthe challenge is to find me or suggest a watch that has that exact or similar dial colour that has a case diameter of no more than 43mm. The brand doesn't matter so long as it is reliable and i don't care if it's a mans watch so long as the case is that size. I would like it to be at least 100m water resistant but would like it to be more and i also like rubber straps although again this isn't a nessity. Also lets keep it under $400This has been my dream watch dial colour from as long as i can remember. Please help that dream to come truethanks
