Hey all,

I hope you are all doing well.

I am looking for a nice Watch recommendation for my 19th birthday which is coming up in the next few weeks. I’m thinking of buying it possibly tomorrow cause Black Friday sales lol.

I’m looking for a nice watch that I can wear daily, specifically to the office/work, but also out and about. I would prefer not to spend more then $500(CAD), but if it’s something I really love I would be willing to stretch to $1000(CAD). I do have a bigger wrist and I’m not a big fan of diver watches personally.

From the research I’ve done I’ve kinda narrowed it down to this list, but I am completely open to any other recommendations:

Tissot Gentleman Tissot PRX Seiko Cocktail (SRPE19J1 or SRPB77) Seiko Presage (SBGA125) Orient Bambino Omega x Swatch (moon watch) Bulova Lunar Pilot Hamilton Khaki (more then I’d like to spend but I would if it’s really recommended)

Out of these options, what would you recommend? Or would you recommend something completely different? I totally intend to buy some nice leather bands if the watch chosen has a metal band.

Any thoughts are appreciated!

Congrats and fuck you… /s

No for real, congrats! I like the snowflake so much. I was actually in Japan in April and got to try one on. I definitely cannot afford it. I ended up buying a Orient sun & moon watch, my first ever watch. I wanted to get one to celebrate my first international trip and first solo trip. I for some reason mixed up the conversion rate in my head when I tried on the snowflake and I was like “oh snap it’s $800, I love the design so much” and then I was like “wait this is $8000 I cannot afford this” haha.

Super jealous! Hope you enjoyed your trip!
