Welcome to our next video with tips not only for Christmas gifts. We are currently in our WOW brick-and-mortar store in Europe, located in Banská Bystrica. In this video, you will see 5 tips for men's watches in the price range from €1,500 to €3,000, plus one bonus model.
TAG Heuer Aquaracer GMT
WAY201T.BA0927
We open the list with the brand new TAG Heuer Aquracer GMT with a two-tone ceramic bezel on which you can see the display of the second world time. The automatic caliber 7 allows you to select either a second time zone or a 24-hour time display format. Thanks to its screw-down crown, the watch is highly water-resistant up to 300 meters. In fact, the entire Aquaracer series is highly water-resistant. The watches are very robust, very well built, and extremely easy to read thanks to the distinctive luminescent indices on the dial. The watches are definitely suitable for any occasion. They won't let you down when diving on vacation, and you can easily take them to an elegant dinner or a business meeting.

Mido Multifort Chronograph
M0056143605122
The second model is the Mido Multifort. We have featured the Mido brand several times before, as it is a relatively well-known brand. This time, we have prepared this special edition in a special box with a diameter of 44 mm. The case features orange details combined with black PVD. The sapphire crystal covers the dial with round indices that break up the horizontal and vertical indices. Inside is the ETA Valjoux 7750 movement, which we have mentioned several times before and which is very well-known, popular, and, above all, reliable. The power reserve in this case is approximately 45 hours. The color combination makes it a more extravagant piece, suitable for someone who wants to stand out. The watch is water-resistant to 100 meters, and the package includes an additional orange strap made of calfskin.

TAG Heuer Carrera
WAR201E.FC6292
The third model is the three-hand TAG Heuer Carrera. I particularly like this model because I have owned it for several years. It has been through a lot with me, which is evident from the countless scratches, but these only add to its beauty and sentimental value. The watch is based on the historic Carrera model that Jack Heuer introduced to the world in 1963. It is not exactly the same model; this 2020 Carrera is only inspired by its historical legacy and design. It perfectly combines the brand's racing history with the pursuit of timeless design. The case diameter is 41 mm, inside is an automatic caliber 5 with day-date function and a phenomenal blue dial and crocodile strap. The strap is extremely durable, by the way. Sapphire crystal on the back cover. These are the basic attributes of a good brand and model. If you don't like this version, you can choose the same model with a silver dial and brown leather strap, or with a black dial and black leather strap. You can also replace the strap with a steel bracelet. However, I personally think that this Carrera looks best with leather.

Longines HydroConquest
L37834766
Next on our list is the Longines HydroConquest model with a diameter of 41 mm. Longines as a brand is not known for its sports watches at all... This model features a very attractive anthracite dial and an anthracite ceramic bezel that rotates in one direction only. The crown is screw-down, ensuring good water resistance to 300 meters, but be careful with the chronograph buttons – don't press them underwater! The massive case is quite thick and robust, as is the bracelet, but the workmanship is very good. This is a watch that I would definitely recommend for everyday wear. You don't have to worry about wearing it to work, with a suit, or for sports. The only limitation is the weight and thickness of the case, but you can easily get used to that.

Longines Master Collection Annual Calendar
L29104516
We waited almost two years for this model, waiting for ETA (Swatch Group) to create a movement with an annual calendar for the Longines brand.
These automatic watches have one special feature that sets them apart from classic automatic watches, namely the annual calendar. This means that, provided the watch is always wound, you do not need to set the date. A standard date ring has 31 days, so you have to reset it every month that ends on a different day – in this case, you don't have to. This Master Collection model has a diameter of 42 mm, a black dial, and an elaborate bracelet. The Roman numerals indicate that this is an elegant model. However, it is also suitable for casual use. First and foremost, however, it is a more classic piece from the watchmaker's wardrobe. This model is available in several dial designs and sizes – 38.50, 40, and 42 mm. You can choose from an ivory, blue, or black dial – it's up to you.

Breitling Premier B01 Chronograph 42
AB0118A21B1X1
The bonus tip is from Breitling, in this case the Breitling Premier Norton. A special edition created in honor of the English motorcycle manufacturer. The case diameter is 42 mm, with sapphire crystal on the front and sapphire crystal on the back, where you can admire the Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01 automatic movement. The movement has a 3-day power reserve, so if you take the watch off your wrist on Friday, it will still be running on Monday morning. This model has a very interesting dial, with a black center, silver "counters" on the sides, and gold, hand-applied Arabic numerals around the circumference. The classic design is complemented by a brushed leather strap and a folding clasp that looks like a classic buckle. I would recommend this watch for lovers of the Breitling and Norton brands and people who like a subtly sophisticated watch design but with the use of the latest technology.
