You'd be surprised at how big this brand is amongst the yount, rich, fashionable crowd. They're also very functional and can withstand extreme underwater depth. They're scuba watches with flare. After techno marine's success, SO many high profile watch company's released their own "scuba" lines to compete (Bvlgari, Tissot, etc.)
You might not like them, but at least they've got a younger edge to them. Movado may be a "timeless classic", but that means you'll see more people wearing them who push walkers.

That's why I prefer the Movados, the Imperio I posted could be worn for any occasion, and it'll never go out of style, unlike those fad watches

Give me a Fossil watch ANY day.
Well, ALMOST any day. I'm quite fond of Omega too.

I disagree...that watch looks a lot like Tag's Monaco watch...that's what I told my fiancee I would LOVE as a wedding present...now, let's see about bringing that date forward!

Are you kidding? The movado is too formal to wear to the beach. Or with any dress down style whatsoever. It may be simple, but full metal, classic timeless looks don't go too well with a lax style.

I wouldn't wear a watch to the beach anyway. What do you mean by dress-down? Just old jeans and a t-shirt?

You guys actually make requests for wedding presents? Where's the thought in that?

Patek Phillipe are the greatest watches.
or if bling is your thing
for a simple stainless steel watch with a leather band, patek watches start at 10 grand US. the only place in toronto to sell them is Tiffany and Co.

One of my dads best friend is the north american head of patek phillipe watches. Before that, he was the west coast head of Bvlgari watches. He hooked my dad up with a $12k watch for $3 grand. When a watch is that valuable, it sadly sits in the safe....
