Santos. So classic and great piece for your collection.

Note that’s the ladies version, assume you are aware

There’s a 37mm also, which is sometimes worn by men with smaller wrists.

Not that watches need to be gendered but you don’t see a lot of men wearing 35mm versions of watches that come in 37 or 40

Glad to hear it’s been on rotation but not my cup of tea yet thanks for the recommendation 👍🏽

I think the yacht master 37mm is a better choice than the 35mm. I would pick the yacht master in this case

F here. This isn’t an option on your list but Cartier Tank with croc strap is timeless. I considered the Santos but ended up purchasing the Tank - absolutely love mine.

I am in NYC but open to surrounding areas if anyone has any jeweler suggestions.
