Hey Blue, that's a tough question. It really depends on your budget.
I would say, for a "professional" "meeting" type watch, you are probably looking at a starting price point of about $5K.
That can get you into a nice Rolex, Panerai, etc.

Now you can also get into a nice Omega for about $3k - $4K but I find Omega's to be more sport oriented and less of a "meeting watch".

However, should you decide to go with a real, real nice "meeting watch" your probably going to have to double the budget to about $10K. That's where you get into the Audemars Piguet, IWC, VC, Patek category.

If your seriously interested, tell me what you would consider spending and I will make some recommendations. Most watches, if you are in the know, can be bought for 30%-35% south of MSRP.

You can also visit this site for a nice overview of HOT watches.

The prices are not accurate and the reviews are not objective, but it's entertaining.

ha ha ha TT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (not enough !)

yah the oris is the williams. i wrote them an email once and they were like um no, we folllow williams, not bmw LOL. i was in paris trying to find the marc webber limited edition one, called about 10 diff paris jewelers and no one had it , so i had to settle for this one. i like it a lot though, wear it every day, comfortable, big enough case and great watch band made out of rubber. plus got detaxed and a nice sale at galleries lafayette, i think it came out to be about 40% cheaper than here!

I wasn't sure if I was going to drive up in the X or the TT. I guess that decision has been made for me :-)
