This is my watch. Do you guys approve? Too big? Too flashy? Do you think that they will judge me cause it's Armani and not some watch company?

That looks like a great watch... to wear to the clubs.

These are some ugly watches... interesting taste you have.

Even this one's better... and cheaper.

I have to say that all of those fashion articles about watches are always a joke. It's obvious that the writers don't know anything about watches, not even the ones they recommend. I liked how the article made recommendations for the "third watch". It specified the IWC Big Pilot as an example, though not by name. It's a great watch, great in house movement, etc. However, it is almost 3 times the "recommended" price and significantly larger than it's recommended maximum size.🙄

Cheers!

Yeah, garbage.

My advice would be to save up for a hamilton khaki for a dress/interview watch, upgrade to a speedmaster or Portofino, then to a Portuguese or w/e your preference is for a dress leather strap watch, get a tag or w/e for a sports watch, upgrade to a seamaster pro, then to a sub/crosswind/iwc pilot or aquatimer, etc, then to an offshore, hublot, etc.

hahaha

It's really that bad? What if I'm wearing a Tom Ford suit? would that make up for it? lol

 

[drizzt3117]

If you can afford a tom ford suit you shouldn't even be in the same area code as that watch. I wouldn't recommend wearing any but the most conservative Tom Ford suits to interviews in any case.

Yeah I guess conservative isn't really what Tom Ford's are all about. Maybe I'll go for a Canali or a Zegna. If I went and got a black leather band to put on this watch would it make a huge difference?

cheers

Yeah either of those would be fine. Buy a better watch.

It could work.

Stress the diversity angle and an interest in underserved communities.

 

[Hardworktomed]

I think I'm going to get a nice Seiko Skx779 aka. Black monster. Maybe put on a real nice leather strap on it later.

This is mine, it wasn't cheap but wasn't as much as those:

You can find lightly used portofinos for < 2k. If you're looking for something in the <1k price range, there's a German brand called Stowa that makes some cool stuff!

I would also recommend Oris in the 1k range. They make some really nice timepieces.

How do you watch guys feel about Hamiltons?

The khaki is a staple watch, I highly recommend them.
