if wanna follow what you friend suggested
3k...quite a number of Tissot autos or few lower ranged Oris/Ball.

if want to look something beyond, plenty of choices.....

perhaps easier if you post some candidates and ask for comments...

seeking well marketed brands or lesser known brands? with your budget cannot get a 7750 chrono movement from Oris/Ball/Tissot. by fancy I assme U like many sub dials.

lesser known brand can get something U can customize..
ie
a Guinand series 20, U can email watchmaker to customize hands or dial.
their 7750 are well decorated, unlike the well marketed Tissot/Oris if u wanted a display back
http://guinand-watch.com/index.php?option=...d=63&Itemid=181

next 2 brands don't allow customization but make great watches.

Steinhart is very well made watches too. unfortunately like Oris only the rotor is decorated.
http://www.steinhartwatches.de/en/chronographs.html

this is on sale, great value too, under 2K for a 7750.

if U like black.. here is a DLC watch at a great value.
http://www.ocean7watchco.com/cs2/index.php...&product_id=132

worried about case getting scratch, get a ceramic case
http://www.ocean7watchco.com/cs2/index.php...&product_id=130

Pammy is the in thing, can afford a great rxw or from Dievas
http://www.rxw.jp/collection/poseidon/index.html
http://www.longislandwatch.com/Dievas/Dievas_Watches-4.htm

with oris U can get something like the below, but I don't think it is your style
http://www.watchseller.com/orbigcrcoss.html

can get a Louis Erard La sportive watch or a Longines conquest watch
http://www.timepiecestore.com/catalog/loui...a-sportive.html
http://www.timepiecestore.com/catalog/l3-6...-men-watch.html

if u can make it to SG, here is a pre-own watch.

U might not appreciate this Soprod mod movement or complication or what it does. any well market brand with such complication maybe 3-5X your budget.

wanna ask for opinion. is it worth to service a 2k tissot quartz watch? the dial suddently loose and sometimes it stopped then ketuk2 it moves again. if so, how much usually it cost?

the watch is more than 5 years already...
