I throw my citizen on a NATO strap and it looks clean - any watch that’s got a clean face like this is a +1 in my book

Can’t go wrong with Seiko and Hamilton as a starter watch. You should also check out Tissot in that price range

So I tried this on today and it looks more of a silver in direct sunlight. It's fantastic quality- I'm going to order one myself! It comes with a metal bracelet as well fwiw

The problem is that I have 3 years of working experience as a Security Analyst and now whenever a recruiter calls me they ask for Android experienced employee.

What should I do next? Thanks in advance 🙂

El Primero savants, what do you think of this one? I like that it has the vintage style chrono seconds hand and the general retro handset and font. and I love that it uses the 400 movement which has the yellow gears which just looks so much better to me than the 3600. But it’s online only so no AD discount, and not sure it’s worth the premium over the new Original line. I think I also prefer having the grey sub dials, although I love the story behind this one. What are your thoughts?

I think Costco online wins the award for the most "eclectic" (ugly) collection of luxury watches for sale - it's worth a browse from time to time. This was one of the better looking ones.

New to luxury watches. If I were to wear one watch that makes a statement without being too flashy, which one should it be.

I am seeing this as an investment (1) dress to impress, and (2) eventually pass it on to my son who is an investment banker.

Please recommend in 3 ranges: around 6k, up to 12k and 12-16k. tia.

Looking to buy a Rolex. I am in Brazil for work and went to a local AD to find that it’s more expensive than in the US. I thought (my fault I guess) that it would be cheaper to buy it outside the US?

Got it shipped straight from 🇯🇵. Decent piece for casual everyday occasions.

Guys, you were right. GS never did it for me, but then yesterday I happened to be at a jeweler who carried them and I tried them on and experienced them first hand for the very first time. The skyflake especially, but the details of those watches are absolutely impeccable. They’re stunning in the flesh. I was wrong this whole time and I’m sorry. Sincerely, a reborn GS fan.
