Seeking Advice on Ladies Watch Under $2,000

 

I am looking for a ladies watch under $2,000 and as I do not know much about watches, I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts about what choices I have. I like classic, streamlined styles in stainless steel, preferably with a bracelet, but a leather strap would be nice as well.

Are there any automatic watches in my price range? Unfortunately I cannot afford to exceed the $2,000 limit.

If not, what should I be looking for in a quartz watch? Are there brands that are known to have good mechanisms, or does it not make a big difference? I like the look of Baume & Mercier watches.

This will be my only watch for a long time, and I will be working in finance, so I am looking for something classic, that will be respected by potentially pretentious coworkers.

Thank you in advance for any input!
