Incoming: wedding gift for brother
Hi guys - visited an AD yesterday with my younger brother to pick out a wedding gift for our older brother.
He hasn't worn a watch in a while - so wanted to get something fairly simple/"low key" as he isn't the flashy type. We settled on the 36mm 116000 with silver dial, and 3-6-9 numerals. Thoughts? |

That's a really nice watch. Personally I prefer the updated version with the double sticks instead of 3,6,9 but you can't go wrong.

Thanks guys. Bit of a tough choice to make with such a wide selection of watches available... will probably give it to him before we leave the country for the wedding. Already had the bachelors party.
Maybe I'll record his reaction and post the video... |
