Alpina, founded in 1882, is another Swiss watchmaker with a rich history. It is arguably most known for its Alpiner 4 timepiece, which was introduced in 1933 and provided consumers a stainless steel watch with antimagnetic, antishock, and water-resistant qualities.

While the Alpine 4 series is still available in the company's "Land" collection, we're concentrating on the Seastrong Diver 300 Automatic from the "Sea" collection. The readable dial and wide hands make this dive watch extremely useful. It is undoubtedly a tool created for use in the water, but it is also a work of art when used outside of the water, with a 300m water resistance rating.

The Seastrong Diver 300 Automatic is driven by a mechanical, self-winding AL-525 movement with a 38-hour power reserve, as a tribute to classic watchmaking. A good diving watch offering from a legendary brand in this price range.

This iconic timepiece is inspired by Hamilton's maritime chronometers from the 1940s and boasts a mix of old and modern styling.

The Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer Chronograph has been updated and now has a 60-hour power reserve automatic movement.

Sinn, like its sister German company Damasko, doesn't play around when it comes to producing technically superb timepieces that are more affordable than identical items from larger-name companies.

For example, the steel on this 556 is a smaller version of the brand's 856 series watches, and while it lacks the brand's legendary case hardening procedure, it's still a lot of watch and cool as heck.

Rado should always be on your radar when it comes to gorgeous lady's dress watches because it is a well-known brand. It has a 23mm casing with a quartz movement; however, no one would detect the movement because it lacks a seconds hand like a proper dress watch. It has a sapphire crystal and is housed in a stainless steel casing that is only 6.1mm thick. It has diamond hour markers at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock, which contrast brilliantly with the black dial. The black and silver stainless-steel bracelet contrasts well with the black dial and silver hands.

Want a genuine brand's rich look without paying a serious brand's premium price? The HydroConquest might be the perfect watch for you. It has traditional, midcentury diving watch cues and an enlarged typography that adds interest to the dial and is available in a variety of colors and sizes. It has a sapphire crystal, a unidirectional diving bezel, and a date window in addition to being water resistant to 300 meters.
