The Best Watches Under €750 (2025)

Welcome back to our blog! Looking for a good watch under €750? Good news: starting at this price, it gets really interesting, and you can seriously upgrade your collection. But what should you look for, and which models are favorites among enthusiasts? We've compiled our honest tips and personal picks for you.

Why €750 is a magic number

For many collectors, €750 is a bit of a hurdle. From there, you often get that little bit extra: a more beautiful finish, better materials, a wider selection of styles, and sometimes even a piece of heritage. In short: for this price, you really want something beautiful on your wrist.

Certina DS Action Diver – The Swiss all-rounder

One of our favorites in this price range is the Certina DS Action Diver . This Swiss watch is affordable, robust, and stylish. We especially like the 38mm model: not too big, not too small, and suitable for almost any wrist. Its diving capabilities and timeless design make this model ideal for those looking for a true all-rounder.

I deliberately wore it for this review—and rightly so, because it's comfortable to wear and looks great. Note: the titanium version is over €750, but the steel version is perfect in this price range!

Baltic Hermetique Tourer – Vintage vibes, modern quality

For those who appreciate a vintage look with modern build quality, Baltic is a great choice. This young French brand combines classic looks with surprisingly good specifications. A Baltic is stylish, often has a subtle case size, and offers a unique experience for watch enthusiasts who want something a little different.

Citizen BY1010-81H – Affordable quality and surprisingly good value for money

Citizen might not be the first brand you think of when it comes to watches under €750, but this Japanese brand should definitely be on your list. Especially if you consider the models made entirely of titanium. Titanium is not only super light and strong, but also gives your watch a unique look and is very comfortable to wear.

At Citizen, everything revolves around reliability, innovation, and excellent value. The brand has been delivering solid timepieces with unique character for years. Citizen often gets a bit overlooked by brands like Seiko or Casio, but that's actually unfair. Especially if you want a watch that's just a little bit different from the standard options in this price range.

Stirling – Striking design, unique character

Stirling isn't just a microbrand; it was founded by a serving soldier with a passion for watches. This military background is subtly reflected in the designs: robust, functional, yet stylish. Stirling appeals to enthusiasts who want something different from the well-known big names. While many brands in this price range stick to classic or sporty styles, Stirling opts for watches with a striking design and a unique character. Ideal if you want to stand out without breaking the bank.

Stirling proves that you can wear a unique and high-quality watch for a modest price. Whether it's unique dials, original color schemes, or a limited edition, at Stirling you'll find just the right touch to make your watchmaking heart beat faster.

“Sometimes you just want to try something different and that's when you end up with a microbrand like Stirling.”

Our tip: Give microbrands like Stirling a chance! The great thing is that you often have direct contact with the makers, which creates an extra sense of connection and experience with your purchase. And let's be honest: how much fun is it when your friends ask what exactly is on your wrist?

Other top products in this price range

Of course, there are many more brands and models worth considering. Think of brands like Seiko , Tissot , and Hamilton – all of them offer robust models under €750 that will last for years.
