Pertinent Question: If a man had to choose a watch that would serve him in multiple scenarios as a global businessman/consultant, what would it be?
I know the simple answer would be his blackberry however I am referring to a wrist watch. Without personalising this question in my mind it would have to address the following
Aesthetic Style – Work while the man is dressed for the office, dressed for a casual stroll down any major city or going for a drink at a swanky bar.
Discretion – A bling watch may not work or draw unnecessary attention in his travels
Comfort – Must be practical say in a Scandinavian Winter as it would be in a sweaty Tropical Summer environment say in South East Asia
Waterproof – Do I need to say no more that the global traveller may decide to jump into a hotel pool or mellow out on a beach?
Aura – This is the quality of it being generally accepted as a nice watch by anyone who may wish to have a look or more importantly someone of the fairer sex, while not coming across as arrogant. (Please no G Shocks )
I know this question may appear to be more suited to a watch forum like TimeZone.com. However, I have those forums are generally but not exclusively about Cult followings of particular brands and less about some of the other qualities I have mentioned particularly the one on Aesthetic Style.
