Watches for Crazy Middle Class Asians – three affordable timepieces everyone can covet

In this column, we are going to look at more affordable fare - that is, watches in the price range of Crazy Middle Income Asians After much thought I have come to the conclusion that the major selling points Baume is pushing - that its watches are highly customisable, with environmentally sound production, on top of a modern design and attractive pricing - are fresh and appealing Baume has adopted the NIKEiD approach, with an online customisation service that lets you start off with a blank slate - you can pick the dial, the case, the hands, the strap and even engrave your watch.

I'm too old for that sort of thing, so I'm catching up now and, yeah, it turns out AVI-8's watches are well made, look the part and, most importantly, are attractively priced The watch has a 43mm steel case that houses a Japanese automatic movement and comes with a thick-cut leather strap Finally, we have the Luminox Leatherback Sea Turtle Giant 0320, which is a beast of a watch sold at an unbeastly price.

The value pack includes the watch, a waterproof case, an additional strap and a strap changing tool. . Source
