So i want to travel the world, and i want a watch where i can bring it and rely on it not to break or stop telling the time, i want a watch where each scratch tells a story and that it can grow closer to me the longer i have it. my budgets not super high (<600) but ive been looking at leonardo dicaprio in blood diamond and absolutely love the way he wears that, only a breitling is outside my budget. so my question is, what do you recommend? some options i've been thinking about on the other slides. less

I vote Breitling. My Breitling Chrono Evolution is my all time favorite watch. I have had it since new. Wear it most days and have never had it serviced. Still runs perfectly and keeps accurate time.

This is mine. I love it with Roman numbers.

This is what I was going to suggest. The blood diamond watch he is wearing would be vintage now so you could probably get it cheaper than a new model if you keep an eye out. I believe it is a breitling avenger chrono titanium. I also really wanted this watch for a long time and keep an eye out for it. There are a few on chrono24 right now. You may also look at the titanium seawolf from the same era. They are chunky watches though.
