If you are that uneducated about watches, why would you spend that much on one? Educate yourself and answer your own question. Watches are personal choice. Not what someone on this site recommends


I just don't have a watch in that price range. I have a $50 piece of shite I wear to work outside/fish whatever in and a really nice one. I've never bought in that range and I know quite a few posters on the board have. I don't see anything wrong with getting some general opinions before dropping a few hundred dollars on something.

Tissot


Found a couple Tissots and Victorinox. Also found a citizen that's a little cheaper.

I'm not an expert on movements or anything like that so if one of these is far superior to the others let me know.

Tissot and Victorinox have very similar movements, both Swiss.. citizen is not even close to these. Victorinox seem to be heavier then Tissot. Tissot is more of a dress or accent time piece. Victorinox is more of everyday wear.

So you wear the same tux for every wedding you’re in?

If it's a traditional black tux, like is the case in this one, yes. If it's not or it doesn't match, then no. Not that complicated.

Just admit it. You’ve never stood in a wedding. I doubt you even have any friends at all.

I've never been in a wedding, I have no friends, and I cannot afford a $500 watch. This thread was all an OweO level ruse to try to impress a bunch of dudes I don't know on the internet.

Get him a seiko samurai. Great diver for under $500 that will last a lifetime. Few nice color combos.



Gotta have man wrists tho and not little soy boy limp wrists to pull it off.
