Get an Omega Seamaster instead.
^^ this. Or a speedmaster
I looked at tags and Omegas a couple months ago, and the build quaility between the two is night and day.

Ah good catch.

$1k? Definitely go the used route then. As others have mentioned, Omega is a good choice. You won't get a Breitling, IWC or Panerai in that price range. Another good brand in that range used is Sinn. It's a German brand owned by one of the former senior managers at IWC. Excellent build quality and large range of styles although much of their range are arguably knock offs of the bigger players such as IWC and Breitling.
Thank you! I am new to the watch world so this is good to know.
Care to elaborate or recommend another brand?
I just read this was for the missuss.
Its actually for me. Its a present FROM her.
It's late, what can I say. I had it right the first time, but later saw the words "gift" and "mrs." and guess I just drew my own conclusions, haha. What I said is still accurate I believe.
Ah good catch.
To prove I'm not just a smart arse, constructive input. For that price, I'd maybe look for a Nomos
