Not bad but have you considered a watch from the Patek Calatrava or the Vacheron Patrimony collections?

Luxury Bazaar - Patek Philippe Calatrava Collection
Luxury Bazaar - Vacheron Constantin Patrimony

Thanks Serge,

I love the Patek but I prefer to stay under 8000 $.
Great new signature BTW

Jérôme.......Go ahead, be pretentious, live on the edge.

I think the second watch is a very attractic chronograph.

Dan, I like the second one also but in France, in people's minds, medical doctors and dentists are not supposed to earn money.
So I'm looking for a watch which "does not look rich" for most of th people, to replace my 20 years old stainless Rolex date when I go to work.
