Heavily depends on what the rest of the collection looks like and what I need in the collection.
But if I had create a one watch collection or a daily watch to hold down the fort as I start a collection, I would probably go with Longines Zulu GMT 39mm or Longines Legend Diver 39mm. The Longines Conquest(2023 model) is definitely a good option as well, but I use the timer bezel near daily so this didn’t make my personal list because of this. If I wanted something a little more stylish and fitting for smart casual outfits, then I’d consider something from Nomos.
