If you lead a very active lifestyle, then the JG5600 may be worth considering. You won't worry about getting its integrated silicone band with steel buckle clasp wet from sweat while working out and you'll be able to take it into a pool thanks to a water resistance of 100 meters. At 48 mm, this watch has the largest case on this list and is 15 mm thick. This chronograph features a high precision Japanese movement and a sapphire coated lens. It's available in blue with a silver bezel, silver with a silver bezel, black with a rose gold bezel, and black on a silver bezel for $595.

President Obama was wearing a Jorg Gray, but it wasn't an automatic. Jorg Gray took the liberty of upgrading their already sophisticated watch with a high precision Japanese Miyota movement to an automatic self-winding version. This new watch is available in both commemorative and non-commemorative versions; However, the one featured in this picture is the commemorative version. It features a 41 mm case that 13.6 mm thick and made from stainless steel. The lens is sapphire crystal, the case back has six screws, and it's water resistant to 100 meters. It has a premium Italian leather band and steel buckle. This presidential watch is available in silver on silver, and silver on rose gold for $895. The non-commemorative versions are from $425 and up.

Don't let time run out

We can't deny that the Jorg Gray watches featured here all look fantastic. Perhaps the best part is that they're all reasonably priced. You won't be breaking the bank to purchase any of them, and they'll hold up for years to come.
