Looking for a white dial watch in the sub $1000 range (pre-owned) preferably on a leather strap. Not looking for divers.
Longines Conquest VHP 36mm, I’ve got one and it’s pretty sweet!
All watches are under U$1000 unless otherwise specified:
Seiko Presage Cocktail Time (see also Amazon’s link for the same watch)
Seiko Presage SPB165 (albeit on a bracelet) for precisely U$ 1k
Seiko Presage SRPF53 (on a bracelet and not a white, but rather light blue, dial, but holy smokes look at that dial texture)
Seiko Presage SPB413 (110th anniversary limited edition) for U$1050
Baltic Aquascaphe Classic White (unfortunately a diver in the style of Blancpain)
Frederique Constant Classic Index White Dial for U$1095
Stowa Marine Classic 36 Roman numerals in white
Baltany S4040 (linen silver dial texture, not exactly white)
Other suggestions: https://teddybaldassarre.com/blogs/watches/white-dial-watches (not all of the suggestions in that blog are under U$ 1k) and https://theslenderwrist.com/white-dial-watches/ (I don’t know that any of the suggestions in that article are under U$ 1k though)
Farer Stanhope and Resolute. Citizen NB1060-04A is a bit more silver-y but I think it fits here
I love my Stowa Marin 36 with Arabic. Super classy and versatile.
Even with the upgraded finish and manual wind, it is under 1k. Prices on their website include VAT, which you wouldn’t pay outside of EU.
Either Antea or Marine by Stowa, there are a few different options. Antea is a bit dressier. Their white dials are actually silver, they look white in most lights but can look silver or creme as well, and looks great with the temperature-blued hands which also take on different shades in different lights.
Steinhart Ocean 39 Adventure Polar.
A beauty on a brown leather strap
