you want to buy him something that he would at least wear most of the time if not everyday.

the automatic needs to be worn most of the time because it gets its power from the movement of your hand. also paying for something over $1,000 is quite expensive and is definitely a luxury item so your friend should at least show it off (the watch) always! =)

but whatever you decide to buy, omega makes great auto and battery operated watches!!! good choice smp bond editon!
