    Hi All,



    Looking for a bit of a stear on a new watch.

    Requirements
    1) Glow in Dark Second Hand - Tritium?
    2) Date Function - Ideally smart enough so that it knows which months have 30 vs 31 days.
    3) 200m Water Resistance
    4) Not too gaudy/busy and ideally sub €400


    Suggestions?

    Been looking but lucking out.

    Lume on the second hand probably means a dive watch, or a military style. The date function you are talking about here is a perpetual calendar.

    The only diver's watch with a perpetual calendar I can think of is the old Seiko SBCM023, which is now discontinued. Citizen do lots of PC watches, a few of which have WR 200m and the BL-5250 even has lume on the second hand. It may not meet your requirement for being not too busy, but it ticks all the other boxes.

    You can get this well within budget from Watch Shop or (even cheaper) Creation Watches.

    Drop the requirement for a perpetual calendar and you will have a huge selection to choose from!

    Yeah good choice, or also look for the previous jellyfish model which I think looks better, and also has a Japanese movt (might be a little more expensive) There is one for sale on WUS almost every week, the trick is finding one that is Europe based or at least will ship to Europe
