Make sure you research the history of movements in that watch, it recently changed / evolved IIRC

Love this one

Something "standard" (well a luxury standard) would be a Cartier tank

If you want something more fun / affordable -- do a Hamilton Ventura (assuming if he's already into rectangular watches he can do a triangle)

But so much of it comes down to budget / personal taste

Yeah i don't think link metal bracelets look good at all (leather straps4life)

or rectangles watches for that matter

Just offering options for the post

I love rectangle watches and "tv screen" watches.

If you want something tanky, there's always the Francaise or Must. But Longines makes the dolce vita as well or Oris Rectangular.

If you love art deco and have a decently sized wrist, find a vintage Tissot Prince.

If you want something actually square, the Nomos tetra is worth looking at.

If you're going to bust the bank, Glashutte Seventies (buy second hand).

If you want a micro brands and good price, Maen Manhattan is lovely. Brew Metric is more sporty.

I'd second the Longines dolce vita.

JLC reverso steel but with strap. He'll love it 😜

Really need a budget / price range, great options up and down the spectrum

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
