Anyone had any experiences with the above watches?

I'm in the hunt for a new watch and I had settled on a Tissot PRC200 but stumbled across this Zeno one:
[url= http://www.chronolux.com/productdetail/zeno-watch-basel/zeno-watch-basel-classic-pilot-automatic-6554-a1 ]Zeno watch[/url]

I like the look of the pilot type watch, but are there any others at this price point (£500ish) which are pilots watches that I should be looking at?

Cheers

Like the Sinn and the Glycine, prefer them to the Zeno, but I like really simple, uncomplicated watch faces.
With one exception.
But it isn't me who's asking. 😀

The ones suggested by Andy above any anything in stock that takes your fancy from Timefactors (great VFM): [url= http://www.timefactors.com/ ]http://www.timefactors.com/ [/url]

Edit: Check out the Speedbird III or GMT for example. Top grade ETA movements for very reasonable prices.

For that budget I'd be going for a used Seiko Tuna.

Glycine combat range is nice 😉

and I 2nd the suggestion for Eddies watches (timefactors). Some nice and very well made watches.

I rate [url= http://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/yobokies-watchesanyone ]Yokobies[/url] for a basic watch - and way cheaper than your option.

Not quite a pilot's watch but I too would go for a Seiko - SARB017 Alpinist. JDM so import only.

I've had a Zeno for a long time now and can't fault it. Very well made, decent Valjoux movement, sapphire crystal etc.

I was lucky enough to buy it from Timefactors before the prices rocketed and think some if the recommendation above offer much better value for money at the moment.

They have a sale on and have some cracking deals on BALL watches,several with 50% off.
