Watch connoisseurs: recommend an automatic chronograph
I really like the looks of the Invicta 9225:
Unfortunately it has a quartz movement. Can anyone recommend a watch with similar styling that has an automatic movement? Clarifications for those who don't know watch lingo: movement: the thing that makes a watch go quartz movement: most affordable watches have quartz movmements, which uses a battery and a quartz crystal automatic movement: a movement that runs entirely mechanically and that is "wound" by the motion of the watch while a person wears it. Generally, expensive watches have automatic movements, although I have a few relatively cheap watches that have automatic movements. chronograph: a watch with a bunch of dials |

Hands down Rolex Daytona. I have a Yachtmaster and it is the [censored]. The Daytona is Rolex's chrono, a little less beefy that the Yachmaster but bad ass none the less
Breitling also makes some really nice chronographs but the face can look confusing with all the numbers and stuff on the face: [image]http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/movadobaby_1898_60074184[/image] I'm not sure why that pic didn't work but you should be able to cut and paste -Jb |

Re: Watch connoisseurs: recommend an automatic chronograph
The Daytona is certainly a fine choice. I'm still an Omega fan, though. This one wouldn't set you back quite as much as the Rolex:
It's the broad arrow version of the Speedmaster Professional. You might check out the original Speedy Pro also, but I don't think it's what you're looking for because it's a manual-wind watch. Your original choice looks like a dive watch. You might also be interested in the Seamaster Professional chronograph: |

Re: Watch connoisseurs: recommend an automatic chronograph
Probably $500 or less, though I could maybe be convinced to spend a bit more. I like some of the suggestions thus far but they are indeed out of my price range. Sorry for not including this originally.
