If I were in your shoes, I'd try and look into a second hand sub. you can get some really nice examples with a full box and papers set for around 6-8K. You'll get a watch that will appreciate in value (not that watches are an investment, but if you get cold feet you'll make your money back) and arrive at your door much quicker than a brand new one from a dealer. They wear very thin and flat on the wrist so that's also a bonus for a near-wristlet like me. I've had no adjustment issues with mine and i've had it for 3 years, but like anything mechanical you must service them at a regular interval.

The Seaforth is by Halios, which is owned and operated by Jason Lim who lives in Toronto. They're a boutique watch microbrand (hate that word) that specializes in rugged pieces. They've become a little popular lately so there may be a waiting list, but good examples always pop up second hand online. I've owned two so far and I think the price to quality ratio is fair. The newer models use an ETA movement, and the cases and other parts are sourced form vendors, so be aware that it's not as handcrafted or higher end. I find that part of the appeal though, again price to quality. Good luck in your hunt!
