I have a JLC Reverso that I can wear with business / business casual attire.
I would like to have something tougher and less dressy for weekends, running errands, doing chores etc.
I’m not attracted to dive watches or pilot’s watches – I’m not a diver or a pilot and I don’t need most of their functionality.

Affordable quartz pilot chronograph recommendations in 2025

- 38/39/40mm

Thanks!
