I really like the look/features of the Smiths PRS-29A but know they are somewhat hard to order. I'm having trouble though finding other watches with that specific (what I call the "Dirty Dozen with central seconds") size and look:

  • 36mm
  • twelve Arabic numerals
  • railroad minute track
  • no date
  • central seconds
  • prefer hand winding, but care more about the above

What watches am I missing?

I got to try on a Nomos Club while traveling last week and really liked the size, but the orange accents aren't my thing (and I don't care for their California dialed watches either). What other comparable watches are there in the $2-3k price range? The most important things to me are the 36mm size, no date, and not a diver. I'm flexible on light or dark dial, lume or not, strap or bracelet. Looking for something relatively unassuming and "classic".

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
