I found the Tres Colores by Botta Design and I’m really liking the look. However, I really don’t know enough about watches within this price range to make an educated decision. Is the high price justified?

Some details:

Diameter: 44 mm Lug-To-Lug : 33,7 mm Height: 8,9 mm Weight: 56,1 g (without strap) Movement: Automatic, Sellita SW 200-1 elaboré Swiss Made, individually adjusted by hand Date : Yes Case material: stainless steel, DLC coating Glass type: Double domed sapphire crystal with double scratch resistant anti-reflection coating Water resistance 5 ATM

I really like simple watches, Bauhaus kind of style, Junghans is nice. Would a watch by a more known and trusted brand give me more quality for the money?

Can you help me with my decision? I’d really appreciate it!

    44mm for that kind of dial is HUGE. Like Invicta huge. Bauhaus designs don’t really scale up past 40mm well. In fact, the original kitchen clock was made under sized because the dial looks so large.

    Braun has similar watches that are sized smaller and have a similar look. Stowa and Junghans both still produce Bauhaus designs. Both brands will cost less than this. Junghans uses Sellita movements but are really well decorated and are regulated at the factory. The Nomos Club Campus is about $1500 and is a really good deal for the quality you get.

    Just some ideas…

    There is a 40 mm Quartz version of it for about 600. I think I am going to go with that one. Thanks for the helpful advice!
