Depending on what you want
- If a sapphire crystal matters to you, look at the Seiko petite seconde acier SRK047P1, which has one for €199.
- If you plan to swim with it, take the Casio G-Shock GM-2100-1AER instead: water-resistant to 200 m, at €199.
- If you would rather have an automatic movement at the same price, the Seiko 5 SNK621 has one, at €183.20.
- If you want to spend less without losing anything on the spec sheet, the Casio Edifice EFB-109D-2AVEF costs €139.
