I am looking for a functional, practical, elegant, dressy and tasteful watch with dual time (UTC and local) display. One preferably that I can afford (read: I am a poor US medevac pilot)

example of what I like (but can't afford and I am sure all you European North sea drivers have as a minimum):

Ulysse Nardin (http://www.ulysse-nardin.ch/en/swiss_watch_manufacturer/Collection/Dual_Time/Dual_Time_42_mm/243-55_92.html)

I am not looking for a teeny bopper, pilot wannabe, pickup chicks instrument that is full of gauges and needle's that are impossible to interpret and no one really ever has any use for. No E6B, no compass, no altimeter etc required. Just.... 2 times, and maybe even a light. Good quality and tasteful and if possible under $500. Actually, make that $750. It is, after all, a tool for work, and therefor tax deductible.

Thanks
