Baume and Mercier - Capeland -ADVICE!!

[Mr.Tarheel]

Hey everyone, Not sure if anyone remembers me posting the wolf winder deal on chronoshark - but anyway I am in need of some advice. I am looking to spend about $500-600 dollars on a used quality automatic watch and came across this deal: http://portero.com/baume-mercier-cap...m_campaign=cse Unfortunately it wont let me upload a photo of the actual watch It is exactly like this watch but with a white face and black leather band. The seller has rated it at about 95%, what do you guys think? Is this a good starter time piece? Any advise of other watches to consider in this price range? Please help!

B&M make excellent timepieces. Not particularly a fan of the Capeland series. Just a personal choice. I have the Riviera XXL.

It is very similar to this piece (which is also a good deal I think).

How is the movement in these pieces?

Any other suggestions in the same price range?

Thank!

Those are some nice deals. Please don't let me influence your decision. If you like the style, and is in your price range, go for it. I am not sure which movement is used in Capeland. Are you looking for dressy or sporty?

[Mr.Tarheel]

In all honesty a mix of both - something I can wear daily to work (business environment) and out to dinner/bars. Do you think that matches these requirements? Have any watches you want to sell in the price range? ha

I will send you a PM as I don't want to hijack your thread.

Anyone else?
