Watches are one of those items where you can spend a little or a lot.
Tag Heurer has had a mixed reputation among serious watch aficionados (over the years they've tended to emphasize advertising and marketing over quality). In your price range, I'd consider a Sinn pilot or diver's watch. I've been very pleased with my Sinn U1 (a diver), but at 44mm it is a bit large for wear with a suit. A Sinn 556 or 856 might fit your needs, and is next on my list. These are in the $1500-2000 range. Sinns aren't particularly common and Watchbuys is the only US importer.
Here's my U1.
