Depends on his lifestyle and his passion for watches. If he is an outdoor rough guy, you will be prioritizing durability. If he is an office dude, you can sacrifice it for better looks.
The most important tip to begin with is: if the watch brand also makes underwear, it’s not a decent watch brand. You can discard Armani’s, Boss, Dolce Gabanna etc.
The default recommendation is a watch on a steel bracelet, 100m water resistance and sapphire glass, all for durability purposes. Be aware that the gold will be plated or PVD at best and will scratch away with wear.
If he is a watch guy, mechanical movement might be something to consider, but if he does not care about watches, solar or quartz will be better for him.
The most important part of a watch is the sizing, you need to get his sizing correct. Please visit with him a jewelrer. If you dont want to, the way to go is 38-41mm, you can’t go wrong. If he is a bulky strong guy, 40-42 is good, if he is thin 36-38 will be better.
You could consider Tissot PRX quartz, Citizen Tsuyosa, Seiko Presage and Orient for example
It’s a no from me, sorry :)
If your watch brand makes underwear, it’s not a watch brand. You are buying a 20$ watch with a 200+ pricetag just because it has an Armani logo on it.
That your favorite movies are Back to the Future and Star Wars
Buy it 🤣🤣🤣
Tbh, exhibition casebacks in that price range becomes boring cause the movements arent that nice (most of times just a nice rotor at best).
The only really nice movements to look at are the Seagull chronos, that’s worth having a caseback for.
Anyways, it doesn’t matter cause most of watches have an open caseback anyways as that’s what most of people want.
A nice office watch with a nice caseback is a Tissot Lelocle, which is in your price range. Recommend to buy it on a bracelet, if you buy on a strap you will need to change the strap (19mm), cause the OEM is crap.
Good watch and movement, banger for buck!
I think that it has to do with Oris new in house movements. The new 400 is significantly bigger than the previous 733. 30mm vs 25mm
