Hey,

It's almost the end of the year and I wanted to get a watch for myself. I am not really a watch enthusiast but I like the hamilton watch styles. I am pretty indifferent between these two watches so help me choose what style looks better. They are the same size and almost everything, just style difference. Not that it matters too much since the watches look very similar, but I am 24 years old and usually wear business casual to work or jeans elsewise.

Which would you choose? (don't let the price difference sway you )

A:
http://shop.hamiltonwatch.com/american-classic-jazzmaster-auto-chrono-h32616133.html

B:
http://shop.hamiltonwatch.com/american-classic-jazzmaster-auto-chrono-h32596731.html


Poll: Which watch looks better?

A (25)
 
57%

B (16)
 
36%

Neither ! ! (3)
 
7%

44 total votes

Your vote: Which watch looks better?

(Vote): A
(Vote): B
(Vote): Neither ! !

I like symmetry, so I voted B to make the poll more even.

I like symmetry and I think everyone who voted B should change their vote to "Neither ! !" so as to make option B a horizontal line of symmetry between option A and C.

EDIT: nvm I forgot TL poll answers get sorted so that the high percentage answers are on top. The dream is dead

A; I like the solid background more than the diamond background, and I think the bracelet looks better complementing that face than the leather band (although you could probably buy a bracelet for B if you wanted).

Although personally, there are other things I dislike in both (like the asymmetry of having a diagonally-placed date. I recommend posting your plight here as well: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/general/185543-post-your-watch

This is an excellent idea gauging crowd approval! Most decisions are better made with a large opinion base. But you have to consider this group is most likely males, and will be inclined to look at a more dominant watch that shows superiority and status. If you are going for this look and want to be dominant around males then go for it! But if you want something more appealing to females you should try ask different groups of people rather than all males!


Which would you choose? (don't let the price difference sway you )


Ah an indication of financial security nice addition here! You may have improved your reputation amongst some TL'ers !

Watch A with the metal brace, problem with B besides the ugly black leather is the asymmetry can sometimes be difficult to go with specific clothes. Of course that is if anyone will really notice that, unless you will be flashing your watch face.

A. all the way, it's not even close imo. (Never cared for the 4 o'clock dates, but they both have it so doesn't matter). As Darkplasmaball said, check out the watch thread. I actually got some good ideas from it when buying my new watch a few weeks ago. A recent post in that thread here http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/general/185543-post-your-watch?page=62#1232 shows a watch in the same price range as the two you listed, and imo is far superior, but everybody has different tastes obviously. W/e you choose, hope love it. =]

Personally, I'd rather have B - but that's because it fits my collection better.
If this is your first watch, A will fit a wider range of wardrobes.

Watch B with metal bracelet.

But then again I'd only choose Watch B because it'll go well with my everyday work clothing. It's a bit too fancy for my casual stuff. Watch A appears more well rounded in terms of what you can wear alongside the watch, so it's probably better if you're still a student and wear whatever all day.I think it's going to really depend on your use of it.

Yes, so I voted in order to make the poll symmetric (I actually like B not A)

I do also prefer the face for B alsk. The pattern across the face just makes it more interesting for me.

A would impress me. B doesn't. B is boring.

A imo. It'll have a better life as well (as in breaking off etc...). What I did like about B was the three circles seemed to fit better than A's so a hybrid of A+B would've been something I would've liked lol but definitely A from those two.

ps those are some expensive watches lol

I don't own a watch because I want my arms to weigh the same.

After reading all the comments and looking at the poll, I think I am going to go with A. I do think the circles on the face of B look better, but A seems flexible with matching.

Thanks guys!

But my right arm weighs more than my left I am right handed and even tho I try to be even when working out, my right is much stronger. This will only balance my arms !
