Guys, I need help choosing a dress watch. I prefer a simple, clean look and have collected some to show you in no order of preference, but I like them all - but cannot buy them all. :( They differ widely in price and quality and I don't want to spend more than $250.00 this time...but I will. Please help me to decide. Which one do you think would be best with a suit? I'll probably put a nice strap on whichever one I choose, even the bracelets. Thanks! (1) Revue Thommen 1957 Automatic- around $400.  (2) Seiko Quartz - $81.00  (3) Titoni Airmaster Automatic - New Discontined - $$150-200.00  (4) Bulova Quartz - $125.00  (5) Invicta 1948 Automatic - $255.00  (6) Orient Dress Automatic - $175.00 White Dial:  Cream Dial w/ Gold-Silver tone:  (7) Titoni Airmaster II - $285.00 Shipped  Last edited on Thu Jun 7th, 2007 06:40 pm by OrologioPazzesco |

If it were me I'd have to go for either #1 or #6 but that is me. They are all nice but those stand out the most for me. ;)

How often are yu going to wear it? If only occasionally you might not want to tie-up $400 plus . Just a thought. All look nice depending on the above.

I'll be wearing it once a week but probably not more than that. You are right about $400 when the others seem like a bargain, especially the Titoni and the Orient. Oh, I added one more Titoni and I like it alot...especially for the price point vis a vis the quality. Last edited on Thu Jun 7th, 2007 06:49 pm by OrologioPazzesco |

Depends on the suits... silver for blue or black suits and the gold for a brown... or go for both and you're covered! :D

JMHO, but I think the Revue Thommen has the most classic look...2nd choice would be the Bulova. You might even want to consider the Seiko Spirit in a white dial. It has the hack/handwind auto 6R15 movement and looks great on oem bracelet or strap. At about $275, I think.

How about a vintage? Here's a beautifully restored solid 14k gold 1947 Hamilton "Brock" currently bid at $255.00 with less than 24 hours to go.
