But its really big. Maybe not so much for a casual watch but certainly too large for a dress watch.

Hi may I know what you guys think it one were to pick between a zenith captain central seconds and a jlc MUT moon and the base glashutte original senator? Of course the zenith is clearly the most reachable but would I be better off saving for the other two? Right now I have a few watches (iwc pilot chronograph, Tudor classic date, longines hydroconquest, omega constellation, seiko 5 and a gshock) but I'm missing a dress piece. So yup as a second year local uni student, what should I save for? Thanks for your opinions!

OMG... only myself to blame never research properly. Just read an article that tested its good workhorse, robust and reliable but not that accurate with eta 2824. Lose to its parent rolex on accuracy... even though eta 2824 supposed to be "top" grade eta..

Probably the in-house movement might be more accurate.. i too gan cheong alry never wait..

you ah! always kan cheong spider to the max!

"in-house" just means the company designed it themselves. not necessarily more accurate.

ETA movements when well regulated and maintained (esp chronometer grade) can match rolex.

My Sinn (ETA 2824-2) works well with a gain of 2-3 mins in a month.

JLC MUT Moon. Personal preference. Always like a moon phase. 😊

You have a very neat collection there. Almost a watch for every occasion.

I always thought Omega Constellation Men can be considered a dress watch.

My vote goes to JLC MUT Moon ^.^ it's just oozing with class. It's The Dress watch other than the classic Reverso

Once u know ALS, JLC, even blancpain breguet accurate also can't beat with Rolex, then u will feel luckily coz u just pay 4k nia:s13:

If accuracy is what he wants, should get a GS Quartz, Citizen Chronomaster or even a Casio Oceanus (3 top Japanese watch makers).

That's a beautiful watch but I fear that piece may look out of place on a 23 year old student.

Not at all actually. In fact The JLC Reverso started out as a sports watch for Horse Jockey players.

Over time, it became a "must have" versatile Dress Watch
