watch for first time SA
Hey guys, first timeSAfrom a non-target. I'll be atJPMthis summerand I'm wondering what the status quo is onSAattire. I'm obviously not trying to overstep my boundaries and definitely not trying to flaunt my accessories. I currently have a black on black Citizen EcoDrive but was looking for another that I can alternate with. Really looking at spending 500-600 max (actually looking at the Jorg Gray JG6500..thoughts?). Any and all advice is welcome. THanks in advance!!

I would just get a swatch and save $300-400+ but that's just me.
Check out Bulova watches if you like leather strap styles. Their moderately priced in the 200-500 range. I personally own two leather strap watches from their classics collection. Their classic collection has some timeless and simple watches that can really be a nice addition to an outfit.
The only decent watch you'll get for $500 or less is a seiko. I recommend saving your money and wearing the citizen.
yeah after much thought, just wearing the citizen is probably a good idea
Check out Mondaine, and Shinola. You may even be able to get an automatic at that price point. They both have a good mix of style and appropriateness. From a quality perspective, they aren't much different from watches like Sieko, and Bulova.
I got this watch for my ex-fiance and it is my favorite (by far) in your price range: http://www.ashford.com/us/watches/hamilton/khaki-aviation/H76565135.pid?nid=cpg_cat5001&so=53
Hamilton is relatively unknown except by people thatknowwatches. Most will see a nice watch, but those that do know them will be in quiet approval of your choice. +1 on Shinola as well. Mondaines have good reviews on a watch forum I visit but I, personally, prefer the other two brands. The Mondaine "look" doesn't seem to have the same impact to me... your opinion may vary though.
If another watch would be stretching it financially your current watch is fine though.
Check out Victorinox watches. Swiss made, between $400 - $800. They make a great stainless steel watch that's not too flashy, but looks good on the wrist.
Check out orient watches at longislandwatch.com. you get a manufacture movement for under 200 and you can get 3 for 200. And they all look nice.
There are plenty of decent options in the $500 range. On the dressy side, some suggestions would be:
Seiko SARB065 (Cocktail Time) Hamilton Jazzmaster Viewmatic Tissot Le Locle Tissot Visodate
These are all automatic watches. Personally, I'd rather have any of these over a Shinola (quartz only and a made in Detroit gimmick) or Citizen.
Look at Daniel Wellington watches. I just got one for mySArole this summer. ~$200, but it looks way nicer.
我有几个 - 我在丢掉手表方面很糟糕，而且看起来很便宜，但看起来很棒。
虽然几乎没有人在这里是一个bro and so this will get flogged. nixon, despite being a surf company, makes high quality watches and has some dressier options too
surf brand stuff does not go over well here
I especially like different kinds of sunglasses e.g. electrics, dragon alliance, hobie, von zipper etc but here only ray ban wayfarers are allowed
completely agree, dragons are soback office。我敢打赌，当您购买方形脚趾鞋时，您可以免费获得它们
I know anIBMD who wears a surf watch (the one with GPS which tracks how high your waves are). If you make enough money you can wear whatever the hell you want on your wrist.
He surfs almost every morning, so I have to respect his DGAF attitude when he could easy afford very nice timepieces.
I enjoy watch collecting and would advise to wait - save your money - and buy something in the $2-3k range (or higher if you can). There you are looking at automatic watches from brands like Tag, Omega, and Breitling, to name only a few. While these may be their lower tier watches, they are great watches in their own right. For example, instead of buying a Seiko or Hamilton I waited and purchased an Omega Speedmaster for my "first real" watch, and I could not have been more pleased.
Happy Hunting!
summer analystcoming from a non-target, I'd just advise you to save your cash until you get a full time role. Then you can buy the watch without worry. That's what I did, I actually bought my first one 2 years in. I got the tissot automatic
what's your budget
Honestly just get a Seiko for $100-$250. They look good, are inexpensive and are the best watch for the value. I find it insane that anSAwould spend more than $250 on a watch. I had a god damn Timex from Target last summer.
