    Great looking watch. Simple and elegant. Needs a simple black leather strap to complement it.

    Makes all the other watches in this thread look like useless, worthless, POS. :)

    To each their own. I personally despise gold watches but my dad has a couple Seiko 2 tones that work well for him and look good.

    I’m more of a stainless bracelet with a black or blue face kinda guy. Goes just as well with jeans and a t shirt as it does my nicest suit.

    I think it was less a dig at the Movado and more a dig at it being the be all end all watch on this thread. Which is laughable.

    Went to Vegas two weeks ago, and though I didn't gamble any, they still got the better of me. Brought these two home. I had been floating between a number of IWC models, and couldn't pass up the chance to snag one of the last limited edition 150th year anniversary models.9hvi3pjnuw3z.jpg
    As a general rule I am not a fan of Tags. However I do love the Monaco's association with racing, and am a sucker for the Gulf livery.

    Took that pic of mine in a dark environment. Hard to get good shots of the finish as it’s the titanium metal and the deep grey is hard to capture.

    Some better ones.

    Thanks. I'm quite happy with it.

    Nice Oris BTW! I like that company as a whole. I've been very happy with their Brashear Chrono that I bought just over a year ago. There's are a few of their pieces still on my radar.
