Which watch?

Wings soon. Looking to replace my Ironman with something $500 or less to celebrate. If I take my watch off I'll lose it.. so I'm hoping to find the watch that can take the daily beating and still look good for date night. Basically, one that isn't coming off in the cockpit, shower, beach, bed, etc. Does it exist? Any recommendations are much appreciated.

Try this one...https://www.amazon.com/Glycine-Kriegs-Marine-Stainless-3906-19AT/dp/B01DOG4ABQ

Glycine has many options, like all black if that’s your thing. Mine is a good, daily watch that can take a beating. Price is under $500.

Glycine is a cool brand with history.

The Glycine Airman (might be out of price point in automatic) has been seen along side some of the Speedys posted in this thread as well.
That’s why I recommend the Kreigsmarine model. It has number of airman functions without the price point. It is a great, affordable watch.

I’m wearing a Shinola Runwell 47mm in the UofM colorway. Wife picked it out so it passes the date night test! https://www.shinola.com/mens/watches/all/the-runwell/therunwell47-leather-watch-s02278.html
