Where are you going to be travelling to most frequently?
Some considerations: 1. Having to take the watch off to go through security sometimes. Sometimes security also looks at the watch and they have slippery fingers lol... 2. Some watches attract more attention than others, I prefer non-PM for this reason and no Rolex/PP/AP. 3. If you're going to humid countries or going to be in hotel pools a lot, then something with a lot of WR is nice because you can take the watch with you to the pool without worrying about theft. 4. You'll be wearing the watch a lot continuously. This is rough on leather especially in humid countries. So you'll chew through straps. With the above in mind, I'd go with something that has a bracelet over leather, and something with good WR and shock resistance. For me, that was a Grand Seiko GMT. My cofounder also uses a GS GMT as his travel watch. SBGE255 and SBGE275. We also have to go to a lot of sketchy places like rural China, India, and Mexico though...so your considerations may not be the same as ours. It's nice when I'm visiting one of our facilities in another country and can just tell people its a Seiko when they ask. |
