I have looked at the presage but many of them have that Hardlex instead of Sapphire. I bought a Seiko with Hardlex and it was completely scratched to hell in one week. My Sapphire Tissot Bridgeport is 8 years old and looks new. So I swore off any watch that doesn't have a sapphire glass or at least Sapphire Crystal coating as my Vincero is still looking new 5 year or so now.
Some of the presage models do use Sapphire but not the ones I like.
I am looking at a brand called Vario that uses either a Seiko NH38A Automatic movement or an Adjusted Miyota 82s5 automatic gilt movement (Côtes de Genève). They are in the sub $360 range - kind of cool-looking watches out of Singapore.
