+1 for the Laine, and you can customise it too!

Other contenders if you wanted a complication
1. Reverso Duo
2. Nomos Metro with power reserve
3. Grand seiko Sbga413 with Sakura dial
The Longines heritage with black sector dial and bracelet is also pretty cool and definitely well priced.

Dress Watch Input
By: Ssherman855 : August 29th, 2022-03:19
Hello All- curious on your input for a dress watch. Starting a very exciting new chapter in my career and would like to celebrate that. I have a few front runners in mind but purposely leaving them off to prevent any potential bias. A few items of criteri...
Thank you very much for the quick response

I have seen your passion for Omega, understandably so. This is a piece I have not tried yet, I do like the black configuration. Thanks again
What an underrated gem!

My personal choice in the collection would be this version: ...
Plus 1!

Yes, thank you!

JLC has a few on my high list, this included. I have never felt comfortable with the rectangle case shape on my wrist but certainly worth another go
You could try it in the medium size

At first it felt strange for me to wear a rectangular watch as well, but getting used to it didn't take long, now I crave wearing it almost every day! ...

The Geophysic TS is very good value for money. No wonder they discontinued it. I always suspected it was discontinued because the profit margin is very low for that piece.
Me too.

Buy a Laine V38

It is a great dress watch which you can customise and it uses the reliable Vaucher 5401 automatic movement which has been hand engraved. For me without doubt, the best dress watch within your budget unless you prefer a manual wind watch in which case, go ...
Yes!

Can't believe I forgot the V38... It's such a good value for what you pay. You get 4 interior angles at 10k
+1 for the Laine, and you can customise it too!

=D 1) Omega Tresor “orbis” edition - has a teddy bear as the number 8 date numeral, and a gold bridge behind. Around 8k brand new 2) Blancpain Villeret Complete Calender in stainless steel. Should be around 12k brand new after discounts, if in USD. Has a ...

you even have a choice of black, silver grey or blue dials. Some complication but the dial remains very pure
Would suggest a pre owned Patek 3919 or 3520.

Neither have a complication or is new. But in my opinion a quintessential dress watch should be uncomplicated, very thin, PM if it is in the budget, and from the best brand one can afford. Good luck! Happy hunting
My short list of brands to consider
By: quattro98 : August 30th, 2022-02:33
Some offer multiple models that would work, most have been mentioned by others. JLC Omega Glashutte Original Blancpain Habring Kudoke Laine Montblanc Grand Seiko I would probably get a JLC Master Control or Reverso, the Laine V38, GO Senator Excellence, o...
Thank you all

For such engagement and wonderful recommendations. Certainly have helped reinforce some of my original choices as well as sparked some new. I am especially appreciative for some of the independent/bespoke recs as they were not on my radar prior. Please fe...
