I have $3,000.00 to spend on a Stainless Chronograph ,What is the best watch for the money Thanks george

That's quite a lot of money, but the decision is yours: think what you want ?! Is it mechanichal or quartz?
Mechanical are more expensive to own, but they are more easily to sell and make more money as they are ageing.
Quartz watches are more precise, but they do not keep the value over the time.
So, for the start I'll give you some names to find out what you are looking for ;(most of them you will not be able to buy, just check, and then you will understand what I'm speaking about...).
After that - do not panic, please: there are plenty of unbelievable good watches around for the money you have.
