It's a tie

between these two. For exactly the same reasons you've mentioned - they work for casual and formal, and since I'm in t-shirts and jeans most of the time, this becomes essential. Based on my watch rotation chart, both these got exactly 78 days of wear each...
Very nice pair!

I had this watch, sold it and I was trying to get another. The problem was that the seller wanted a price point that made me to ask if the size of the yacht that was included!! No deal. Someday one will pop up. Cheers, Nilo

You need to pay more attention to IWC. This Portuguese and others deserves a chance. Of course, IWC needs to start paying attention to non-gigantic customers in respect to the case size. I'm glad that the Portuguese Classic was designed to ... humans (42-...
That IWC is especially gorgeous

And you pictures enhance that. Ihe 43mm case didn't fit my wrist too well, unfortunately, else this would have been in the stable already.

With experience, I've become to give a more important care to the size and weight of a watch. Your white dial 5726 is a watch I like a lot Raymond. Cheers, Mark

Are the once who got the most wrist time this year, if you don't count the borrowed GP 1966 that is... The one watch I enjoyed the most? Impossible to say.... Probably the one on my wrist at each moment I try to answer the question! HAGWE Blomman ...

Is OP a new interest for you, Abel . . .

. . . or a revived one? Usually, after a falling out, we rarely go back. It's been almost 15 years since parting with my one Rolex, and other than on one occasion, I've never seriously considered returning to the fold. Art

. . . crazy mad for them, or can't figure them out. Vintage Seamasters, though, should be on just about everyone's list. Even at this late stage of active collecting, a KarrƩe is still at the top of my wish list. I'm that crazy about them!
Art, that original Karree is a stunner
By: Tim Jackson : December 4th, 2014-17:30
I always found that one of my favorite of GO's early offerings. That Deco dial makes it! I fondly remember my RG Senator Perp with the Cal 39 from that period, easiest perpetual calendar to read, love their big date too! Cheers, Tim

Audemars: always APpropriate
By: matthewking : December 4th, 2014-19:51
I agree Ken, dress it up or dress it down, the RO is always APpropriate. Not my daily beater so didn't see the most wrist time, but I enjoyed it the most because it was with me on most weekends :) Cheers, Matt ...
YES! It IS Appropriate!
