Hi all,
After 8 years of my Tag Heuer Carrera Twin Time, Tag Heuer Kirium, and Tag Heuer 2000 rotation, I am now ready to upgrade myself out of Tag Heuer and into the "higher tier." I am looking for a dress watch, something that i can wear to work with sport coats & ties, with occasional smart casual days. I am looking for something classy, elegant, and timeless. I have been doing quite a bit of research and I have shortlisted my search to four (4) watches:
1) Lange Saxonia Automatic
2) Breguet Classique
3) Blancpain Villeret
Size-wise and price-wise, all three are about the same. The Lange and Breguet are in white gold, while the Blancpain is in rose gold. All three are absolutely beautiful and extremely elegant. I am having trouble deciding and I would like to hear the opinions and general comments from everyone here.. experts and/or non-expert comments (even only aesthetic views) are all welcome.
In addition to those listed above, one other watch has also captured my attention: Blancpain Villeret Moonphase and Complete Calendar 40mm.
I know this one is quite different compared to the three above (and this is stainless steel), but you do get a lot of bang for the buck with its complications and the moonphase also looks awesome. What do you guys think about this watch? Too busy?
Thanks in advance for your comments.
