Louis Erard
Heritage Pink Automatic

Case: 30mm, Stainless steel
Band: Stainless steel
Movement: Automatic, ETA2671
Functions: HH, MM, SS, Date
Battery: N/A

Louis Erard was founded on 1929, in Switzerland. The company has had a bit of a rocky life, but generally speaking, they have made fine, mid range watches for a very long time now.
The Heritage Automatic has a 30mm stainless steel case, with the crown at the 3 o'clock position. The watch has a sapphire lens on the front and back. The pink dial face has Roman numerals for the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock hour markers, with the remaining hour markers being indicated with 0.05ct pink diamonds. There is a date window at the 6 o'clock position. The hands are chromed steel. The band is a three link stainless steel style, with a folding clasp.
The movement is a ETA 2671, basically the same as the Oris right above. It has 25 jewels, it is self winding, has a 38 hour power reserve, and runs at 28,800. The only real difference is, the Louis Erard version is not modified. But generally, modifications are only to the appearance of the movement, replacing steel parts with copper, or gold plated parts.
This watch can usually be had for just a hair over 1100 dollars. Making it the bargain in this bunch of watches. And falling well under the 2000 dollar price point.

Movement: Omega 1376 Quartz

Understand this right now. Omega is my very favorite watch maker of all time. I love their products and think they are the best company out there. I often call them the rock star of the watch making world.
Omega was founded in 1903, in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. They have really made a mark in the watch world. They became official timekeepers for combat units in the British Royal flying Corps in 1917. Then by 1918, they were the official timekeeper for the American Army. They were the Choice of Nasa, and in 1969, they were the first watch on the moon. They have been the official timekeeper for the Olympics since 1932, and have been on James Bond's wrist since 1995.
They are a serious heavy hitter in the watch world. And on top of all the fame, they make some of the best watches in the world.
The Deville Prestige is the entry level watch for you with this company. They will show up on many of the lists to come, starting here. The watch has a 24.2mm stainless steel case with the crown at the 3 o'clock position, and has a sapphire crystal lens. The dial face is black, it has white hour markers with Roman numerals at the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions. The other hour markers are indicated with index marks. The hands are polished steel. And the watch has a 7 link stainless steel band, with a folding clasp. The movement is a quartz, model 1376.
This watch can usually be found online for around 1900 dollars, so it will push your 2000 dollar budget. But it is an Omega, and you will pay for that fact, no matter what your price point is. But you get a quality watch that is beautiful.

Bell & Ross
Aviation Steel
Model: BR-S-Steel
Case: 39mm, Steel
Band: Black rubber
Movement: BR-CAL.102 Quartz
Functions: HH, MM, SS
Battery:
Water resistance: 100M/330ft
Bell & Ross make some unique looking watches. They will not be for everyone, but I tend to gravitate to them for some reason. I think they are kinda cool looking, they are built well, and they are definitely something that people will notice.
Bell & Ross, is a new company for the best women's watches under blog, Bell & Ross was founded in 1992. It breaks my preference of liking long standing companies. It originally began as two German watch designers, designing watches and having Sinn produce the watches for them, but since 2002 Bell & Ross has been producing their own watches. They are specialized in unique looking watches.
The BRS-Steel has a 39mm square, steel case that has a brushed steel finish. It has a crown at the 3 o'clock position. The watch has 4 visible hold down screws on the face corners, and it has a sapphire crystal lens. The face of the watch is black and has which hour markers. The 12, 3, and 9 o'clock positions use Arabic numerals, and the remaining use index marks. There is a small seconds dial at the 6 o'clock position, and there is luminous material imbued in the hands and hour markers. The band is black rubber, with a buckle style steel clasp. The watch uses a quartz movement, a BR-CAL.102, it is most likely a ETA movement, but I was unable to confirm that.
This watch can usually be had from online retailers for around 1600 dollars. There are several other Bell and Ross watches that will fall under that price point if this one doesn't quite do it for you. They are nice looking watches and are well made. The picture above doesn't do it justice. They have sandwiched dial faces and nice finishes that are hard to notice without very closeup pictures.
