Some of you should look into Stowa watches... Bauhaus influenced beauties with tradition. Great stuff...
One can do no wrong with going for Rod Serling's fav watch, the Hamilton Ventura:

Created by Richard Arbib an industrial designer with a vision of the future:

A fine piece right there, Leer. Where did you find it? A shop? Ebay?
Internet sale called "limango" - from Germany. € 149, you can't get it cheaper... even at Monster watches
Nice ! - is it one of the Current Seiko 5 range?
Yes. Seiko SNZH57
Nicknames are "Glossy" or "Fifty Five Fathoms" as they seem to be inspired by the classic Blancpain divers.

Dang! Very nice.
My word...they'd take an eye out Chuck...splendid work in the field...
Evidence that you can purchase online and get the real deal from these cheap online suppliers:

I've been sporting my black Hamilton Ventura the last couple of weeks and it does look interesting, capturing that American car tail-fin design aesthetic of the 1950s.
Also spotted a Tudor Black Bay in Germany and they're really a desirable watch, but sadly I haven't 2,500 Euros going spare at the moment. So the Seiko homage will have to suffice.
Monster watches from the Netherlands does have some very good deals for Seikos, too...
Aye, he's the at the epicenter of the Seiko mod vortex.
