Hey all,

I know absolutely nothing about watches, and would like to get one for my partner for Christmas. My partner is a bartender and wears watches regularly at work so it needs to be able to withstand the bumps and dings that are expected in that kind of environment, A cursory Google search has come up with the Seiko Men's SSC021 Solar Diver Chronograph Watch, but it's a bit too bulky and has too much going on.

He is currently wearing a DW watch (I think it's the Iconic Link?) with a broken clasp that he loves the look of, so something with a similar style would be perfect. All it needs to do is tell time, not fall apart, and look nice.

Thanks in advance!

Look for a citizen eco-drive. Solar watches are very practical and there are lots of styles to choose from. You also get a 5 year warranty with it if you buy it from an AD (authorised dealer).

Definitely look at the Seiko SRPE line. They’re about $230 and look really, really nice.
