affordable nice looking watches with some swiss ETA movements and some quartz. historical american brand.

the jazzmaster auto chrono w/ it's valjoux 7750 movement priced around a little over $1k is one of the best bang for bucks imo.. similar watches with the same movement is sold for thousands more
Agree...nothing wrong with a Hamilton at all.

FWIW, the 7750 is a very important movement. It's one of the ones that saved the mechanical watch industry from veritable extinction.

All the best.
