I desperately in need of a new watch for my daily chores. I am a homemaker cum a driver for my two young boys. I need a watch that's versatile to go all around from housechores, school errands up to meeting friends for coffee. We home maker need a coffee break too

Not a formal watch but not that casual either. Pls help me to select one, fellow TPFers. I need your votes. Thank you!!!!

Hello.....
Well, you've some great choices. Lucky you!
If I were you, with that lifestyle, I would stick to a stainless steel braclet. Will tell you I picked the one with the lighter dial, because it will go with more,
Good luck

I like the second choice better....I don't like the bracelet of the third and the first one I don't like it with the black dial....I personally wear a seamaster aqua terra for every day use and I love it! I also cook and clean wearing it.

The speedmaster is nice with the steel bracelet !

I am personally partial to the seamaster though - I prefer my watches to be a little more masculine.

I like the middle watch best.

I like the stainless steel however I like the black dial because it has more of contrast over the white dial.

I just called Omega asking for the seamaster ( first pic) weather they have it in silver dial. Unfortunately he said the silver has been phased out and replaced with blue dial. I'm not a fan of blue dial, and I have to opt for the black one. It was nice IRL though :)

Not sure if you want to spend a little more because the watch is available with MOP and diamonds around the bezel. Discount price is around $4560. It's very pretty and the diamonds give it that extra punch.

Shanam, as much as I love MOP and diamonds, I cant have it yet as I'm getting new love ring also. Thanks for the suggestion, and yes I've seen it IRL ( MOP and diamonds), it's heavenly beautiful!
