Depends on the leather band. Some leather bands are really dressy. I would say that GMT is definitely a casual watch.

I've also been looking at a couple of Breitling reissues… the AVI 1953 and the Top Time Zorro. Too many watches not enough moneys.

He's probably too busy restoring his rare custom car in his massive workshop.
Or maybe he is on tour again. Or maybe he is just too busy working out building muscle.

Possibly the Milgauss. It retails just under $9k but I've seen prices for it up to $12K.

I got my GMT for list price just under 10k a month ago. Granted I got lucky but it wouldn't have happened if I didn't ask.

They do in some cases as in, "I made all A's on my report card!"

However, not in this case.

That's only correct with lower case letters. "I made all a's..." In your sentence you have made the capital A possessive

Interesting...my Google sent me to a reference for the Chicago Manual of Style, which agrees with me, but MLA apparently calls for an apostrophe to make a capital letter plural... except in the case of a letter grade

As much as I'm sure we've all enjoyed the grammar discussion the last couple days… here's an attempt to get us back on topic.

What are y'all's favorite white dial sport watches?

+1 I have a snowflake and it looks so much better IRL than photos.

In order to pick something different I'd probably go with

<$1k: Seiko 1959 Alpinist


~$10k: Zenith Chrono Sport


~$100k: (Not a sport watch and not a watch I'll ever be able to afford), FP Journe Octa Automatique Lune white dial:

For something different I think this GMT is pretty slick:

The Bamford London GMT is intriguing to me but the bezel throws me off.

The sarx055 baby snowflake is pretty gorgeous for about a grand, and i also like the sarb065 "cocktail time" for 400. But i seldom have reason to dress up so i don't have any of them
