No offense to the MANY who wear them, but I wish we could get over this whole Movado thing.

i thought it would be obnoxious to mention, as watches are often a factor of available monies, but you are correct. this is not a cool brand at all.

does anyone have a suggestion for a dressier watch (wearable with suits) and to work and other formal things?

although bands are typically fanciest, i think i'd prefer an SS bracelet. also, i'd like it to be cheaper, perhaps a seiko, tag, omega, or similar.

Princeton Watches is your friend.

The whole Movado thing is some guy made the first one as a piece of art to hang in a museum. They don't seem to be decreasing in popularity. I think the look of the gold one is worn out, but the SS one posted looks good.

Thanks, how do you like either of these?

I'm a SS Black Face guy. I recently bought a SS white face Timex to see if I could make the switch. It's not working.

My pops has a Seiko pretty much identical to the top one although it's auto (another must of mine). He got it when he was 21. He'll be 70 in about 2 weeks. I'ts one of two watches I've ever seen him wear. Probably where I get my preferences.

That Seiko is apparently Amazon's best seller and is only $55 there, so I'll probably pick it up. It's a nice dressier style that isn't at all gaudy.

I personally like them because they have a clean look and are good quality. I don't like a watch with a million dials all over the front of it.

I second the motion. Its tired... time to move on. My magazine won't even accept advertising from them now, that says a lot.
