I am quite surprised that I like these watches considering it is an ad link here on NT.
It is legit though, it is watches made by Seiko but designed by designers.
Most probably all quartz but some are nice and simple.
Decent prices too at around $100-$250 range.

B&M is a great watch. Mind sharing some pics?
Yeah, I'll post some pics when I get home from work.
Its on a Classima series, I opted for the one with the date. There is a newer one (I don't know how new) that is similar to mine that has the gears showthrough on the face. I liked that one too, but at the end of the day I didn't want a black face and did want the date. I was just used to having it.
Picked up my wedding band, so all in all, a good day at a jewelry shop.
I turned down the 50th Anniversary Omega (I think it was a Speedster).

Iv'e had this Swiss Army victorinox watch for some time. I like it, the only thing I may do to it is switch the watch bands to chrome because they'releather made.

Here are a few of my watches I've fallen in love with over time. Some of you guys are balling with your watches. Nice.
Black Gucci Digital, 2008 "Beijing" Gucci Digital, Honda x Seiko F1, Burberry Endurance Chrono, Burberry Chrono, Haze Casio, & Red Casio.
Sorry my camera skills don't do my watches actual justice.
My Gucci 101 Diamond Chronograph is @ the shop right now for a slow second hand.

Yeah, the 50th Anniversary is a Speedmaster.
Wedding band... taking a long commitment? Or is that a plunge you already took?
Either way, congrats...
Looking forward to the pics, the Classima is the only line I like with B&M.
I know which B&M you are talking about too, the one with the open heart?
It's been out for a while but it is a nice watch.

Congrats! Wish you all the best.
When I get engaged, I hope the woman I am marrying are willing to have wedding watches instead.
injennz, nice watches. I have the same Gucci, I was going to get the black case one but I hate how the band has the Gucci monogram.
I also have the Burberry Chrono, the brown on cloth strap, placed it on a leather band though. Much better.
Nice collection you got going though.

^Thanks man. Its a collection I'm happy with. I have my eyes on a TAG & HUBLOT I really want & will have one day. However I can't justify it until I buy my house. Until then I will continue to drool over the pictures I've saved on my computer.

Thats a nice designer watch.Originally Posted by injennz
Not really feeling any of the watches that RFX posted from that link, I would rather buy a seiko or even a canon for that price range, but nice IWC pics asalways.

Can someone recommend me a good first watch in the $500 - $1000 price range. I'm looking for something with a leather strap.
Right now I'm thinking about getting this or something like it:
Any recommendations will be appreciated.
I didn't know we had some many people on here that know so much about watches.

For $500-$1000, there really isn't any better deal than Oris or Hamilton, after certain discounts of course.
Check out the Oris Alterier, they can be had for around $500-$1000 after the discount:
The Hamilton Jazzmaster
Or a couple more hundreds and you can get a Tag Heuer Carrera

That Hamilton Jazz Master looks nice and so does the Oris you posted.
After doing some research I've found a couple watches from Overstock.com that are greatly discounted.
What do you think about these four and do you know anything about these watch companies?

Haurex Italy Maestro Mechanical Watch:
Haureux Italy Maestro Rosetone Automatic Watch:

I am not too familiar with either but I will give you my very limited experience with it.
The haurex an Italian watch and quality on it is going to be sub-par. I wouldn't expect it too last too long.
both looks nice but in the inside, it is probably has a Chinese movement. I believe they have mostly quartz too, again, I am not too familiar with them.
How much are they at overstock? If it will cost more than a Seiko or Citizen, I would probably won't consider the Haurex.
Jacques Lemans are more popular or at least sounds like it.
Most likely have a quartz movement or the lowest of ETA's.
It looks alright but again, the fit and finish is probably subpar and the inside workings is not too desirable.
I will be honest, both watch should only be purchased if on sale at around $100-$200 range and that is already pushing it, any higher might be a rip-off.
Good luck with your choices.

After lunch today I went to the Ross & Simons where I had bought my 50th anniversary submariner. Drooled over the white gold black/red Daytona. Hopefullyin a few years I can be in the position to even begin to consider getting one.

Visiting watch dealers are a death sentence to my wallet.
That Daytona is beautiful but for me, if I can onyl have this Ever Rose Gold Daytona with a black dial.
I don't even care how gaudy it is, I will wear that on a daily basis.

I'll let NT decide for me. I've been back and forth all day yesterday and all day today. I just can't decide. What would you do NT if faced withthe following two choices?

^ I don't know movements and all that but as far as looks are concerned, the second one is much nicer IMO.
