Try a vintage OMEGA...

In Response To: Best Watch for Formal Occasions? ()

: My question is, what Omega watch or watches
: would you say best fit into this category?

A 1950s or 1960s OMEGA watch is excellent for this. A vintage Constellation, DeVille, Seamaster DeVille or one of those just labeled 'Omega.' Not only is it something dressy, it won't cost you near as much as a new or near-new OMEGA. Why pay $1000-4000 for a watch that will get only occasional use?

A nice vintage OMEGA can be had for $300-500. Want something really neat and distinctive? Go for one in a rose gold case!
