Perpetual Calendar Complication

[Fakmykak]

Was looking at Grand Seiko's but was very disappointed when I realized that they do not offer Perpetual Calendar Complications for their timepieces. Need recommendations for under 10k, if there even are any... (Used is ok)

Not looking for a battery powered watch.

Eco drive is technically battery powered, but you never have to change the battery. 

 

You do you though.

Eco-Drive watches are solar powered and radio controlled. Zero maintenance, leave one for 2 years in a drawer, take it out and it's still running and on time at the second. That's much more "impressive" to me than any mechanical watch

I'm sure they're cool, but it's not what I'm looking for.

Also, if you’re dead set on getting a perpetual calendar for $10k you’re ripe to get scammed. Just imagine all of the people selling fake watches on eBay or what have you. Well there’s one watch you can afford which comes with a perpetual calendar... and much much more! The Apple Watch!

I'd  be dead before anyone would catch me wearing any of them tech watches.

@kokakoliaFound a certified pre owned Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Perpetual Automatic on Tourneau for just under 12. It is a bit over my budget, but I am really tempted....

Ah! I don’t wanna say anything about it. That’s a lot of dough. And I’d never have the guts to put that much money into a watch.

It is a significant amount of money. But most watches do not depreciate like cars do, I will be purchasing it used. So I expect the watch to retain its value pretty well.
