Hi all! I am looking for a new watch for a gift for husband. He currently has a very rugged military-style watch that he never removes and is held together with duct tape, but as he has a new job requiring him to dress up, he wants something that looks a bit nicer. Listed below are the features he currently likes on his watch. I’m hoping to spend less than $500 (I know that’s a big ask). Any suggestions? TIA

Waterproof (200m), barometer, compass, automatic satellite time, and has either a leather or metal strap (not rubber or nylon).

    This is FANTASTIC information. Thank you! Essentially those are the features that I know he likes on his current watch. He would prefer to more or less replace it (within reason) and not have to constant take it off for showers and stuff.

      Keep in mind that leather straps are not suitable at all for water related activities.
