For our last Watches & Watch Accessories auction, we thought we would try something a bit different. We asked a couple of members of our watch team here at Fellows to give us their top 5 watches. If you're in the market for a watch and you're not sure where to start, hopefully, these picks will inspire you!

Nathan's Top 5 Watches:
Nathan joined the watch team in April of this year having graduated with a master's in Ancient History. A bit different from Horology! But he's quickly learnt the ropes from our more seasoned watch specialists and is quickly finding his 'style' when it comes to watches.
"I think this one is cool. It's modern, futuristic, one of my favourite Seikos. It helps that it's got a funky name as well: Samurai!"
"The Seiko Pogue, who couldn't love this watch? This model of Seiko is famous for being worn by the astronaut William Pogue! The yellow face also sets it apart, it makes it more interesting."
"I suppose this one is more classic than my other two picks so far. It's sleek, it would look good on everyone. Luckily it's also very budget-friendly."
"A square watch isn't for everyone, but it is for me. This Omega is different to the ones we most commonly see here at Fellows - and for this reason, it had to be in my top five watches. Very 70s."
"I'll keep this one brief: I simply think this watch is pretty!"
Kain's Top 5 Watches:
Kain has been at Fellows since 2016, he's moved through many departments, finally settling in the Watch team. He recently was promoted to Head of Watches! Well-versed in all things horology, Kain's taste in watches is simply excellent.
"Cartier Santos, my reasons for picking this watch are that it has that classic Santos appearance but with a few variations to the usual screw motif bracelet and Roman numeral dial. Could be your everyday go-to or a special occasion watch."
"Omega Constellation, sleek design with unusual blue chapter ring bezel. Reliable time keeping and not a watch you have to remember to wind up every day due to the battery-powered quartz movement."
"TAG Heuer Formula 1, fun sporty watch with a durable plastic bezel. Blue and steel always go well together as a colourway and are very affordable."
"Baume & Mercier, whilst not a watch I would wear I can appreciate how unique the case is and it shouts ‘luxury’ with an 18ct yellow gold case and Tiger Eye dial."
"Cuervo Y Sobrinos, with large angular lugs like that it would be hard to not give it a mention, almost looks like an insect on your wrist."
