That's lot of choice indeed.
For vaue for money watch, go and check out Ball. Want more brand recognation? Get a Tag Heuer or Oris.

oris i think is quite "normal" compared to brands like tag?

Exactly what bro nando says, go to the shop and try it out, see which one that sing to you.
People opinion doesn't matter, as long as you like the design and bring joy to you.

going into the shop is such a pain i dislike how the staffs look at me, as if i cant afford.

Why is that so? As mentioned by you, you have 3-5k to spend on watch.
You have every right to try on any products before purchase.
Even before you buy a car, you'll go and test drive right?

i know that's our rights but they are just... vmad.gif vmad.gif
fyi, when i bought my car, i din test drive at all, just went into the showroom and bought it... :$

that is so normal.  i dont even wear any watches when i visit these stores...i had a bad experience once..wearing a cheapo walking into a store.  the manager saw my watch and the service level became very uninviting..hehehe

but ck77 is right...its YOUR $ and THEIR sale...if they dont want your business...other people want....hahaha

i know but b4 u could make 1 step further in deciding whether to get it or not, it has ruined your day blink.gif
that's what i hated the most

The tag carrera is classy..
5K can get a entry level non Chrono tag. Aquaracer series very likely and they are just as good as Carrera series.

ball watches prices are pretty high today.. 5K don't think can get a Chrono. those date version is always possible.

oris and Fortis... Chrono maybe out of your reach too.
tissot, hamilton Chrono are within your reach.
any models to recommend?
cheers
