So i am thinking brown strap and white face. Ideally not too thick and a width of about 40 to 45mm tops.


Happy to take recommendations!
Flieger watch would be my first suggestion given what you mentioned above. Check out Laco and/or Aristo at Island Watch. Then comparison shop for price, or just buy the watch from them.

There are two styles of Flieger: A and B. They can be found in prices ranging from ~$200 to ~$30K, but they still look the same.





I find Googling for "<watch brand or model> price" returns numerous good choices.

Here are some more Fliegers.









All the best.
