You can usually find used Hamiltons for less than $500. They're a solid watch with an ETA movement and a sapphire crystal.

Also, some of the microbrands are pretty interesting at the $500-$1500 range. I like many of the designs Farer is doing.

Christopher Ward is another good value mechanical.

Be warned I was looking at a sub from them, and got sucked down the rabbit hole and now have a Tudor BB58 Pepsi GMT.

Tudors the feeder brand for Rolex BTW.
