Ep. 118: 10 Great Watches Between $2,000 and $2,500

On this week’s episode, Zach and I do something we haven’t done in some time. We’re bringing back our series where we look at 10 great watches between X and Y price points. The last one we did focused on $1,500 and $2,000. This time around, we’re looking at the next bracket up — from $2,000 to $2,500. I’m going to preface this by saying that these aren’t the best watches in this space, because there’s no real sense in dealing with absolutes like that. The idea of best highly subjective. The watches on this list are simply watches that we like and that we think are definitely worthy of your consideration and hard-earned money should you be in the market. To that end, there are a lot of watches that didn’t make this list, so if you have a watch that you think deserves to be on here, then we’d love to hear from you.
