This question is addressed to all who are familiar with the proper Swiss watchmakers. (of course not Rolex, Tag, Breitling or similar JUNK) I am 18 years old, and I would like to buy a proper Swiss watch. When I mean proper, I mean IWC, Patek, Vacheron, Breget, Zenith etc. I would like that watch to be something between classic and sporty. Not too serious, but not too sporty. The suitable price range would be like 4000-10000 USD. As I went through the whole IWC catalog, I found one Portuguese (ref: iw3714-01) that I really liked. I am familiar with this range as my father has a more classic one, but I really like this one. Also, I was considering the Zenith 36’000 VPH (ref:03.2041.400/51.C496) which is a really good watch. What do you people think?

i can’t agree that Rolex, Tag or Breitling are junk, maybe not to your taste, but they produce some very good watches. I like IWC a lot too, the 3714 is a very good-looking watch and would get my vote over the Zenith.
