Daily drivers: Great watches for under 2,000 EUR
TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 16 Chronograph
Many people are looking for the perfect watch for every occasion: a cool, sporty chronograph that you can wear at a party with your friends as well as an official business meeting. Unfortunately, these are often quite expensive watches.
Luckily, one can still find more affordable options from brands like TAG Heuer. This Carrera Chronograph is a great example. For slightly less than 2,000 euros, you get a modern classic that will be a perfect companion for many years. The watch has basically everything you need in a luxury watch: created by a legendary brand, chronograph with date display, automatic movement, glass caseback, and a stainless steel bracelet.
Enthusiast’s corner: Rare or exceptional timepieces
Omega Speedmaster CK 2998-62
As just about every single article ever written about this Omega will have already informed you, the Speedmaster is simply one of the most important chronographs, if not one of the most important watches, of all time. It has an incredible history, is mechanically impressive, and has that timeless and iconic style that collectors like myself love oh so much. Now, onto the watch in question.
What you’re looking at is no ordinary Speedmaster, but a Ref. CK 2998-62 with straight lugs and the correct “Dot Over 90” bezel insert. This watch pre-dates the moon mission that made the Speedmaster so well known, so the case back is clean, with just the word Speedmaster engraved, along with the Omega hippocampus. All in all, this is a wonderful example of one of the all-time greats.
Steal of the week: Great value for the money in all price ranges
Rolex Explorer Ref. 114270
Many collectors will agree that regardless of what rarities you may possess and how many grails you may have acquired, it’s always important to have one watch that will serve you reliably, no matter how demanding your environment is. This is an idea that Rolex certainly understood during the development of the early Explorers, which would eventually evolve into some of the best tool watches that money can buy.
The Ref. 14270 has the classic Explorer aesthetic, and at just 36 mm, it’s a true tool watch that doesn’t ask for any attention. As we continue to be introduced to new releases, watches like the 114270 keep offering tremendous value.
