really tough choice

that sounds like a really tough choice. i would vote go senator because it probably has a little more wrist presence than the mut without making a ruckus. it would be a little heftier than the mut, and the plain indices are just ever so slightly more elegant in my opinion. the portuguese seems like the odd one in this trio. it's very beautiful but a little too loud compared to these two, and it look big in a way that the go wouldn't. can i get away with saying that it's somewhat less elegant/dressy than the go and the mut? i love the iwc, but it just lacks the panache that the other two have. so i don't think it's quite in the same line up.

i don't own any of these, so you know that i have no direct experience. but what a good son-in-law you are. classy gift.

If you want something really classic and elegant, have a look at JLC's Master Ultra Thin. It is a beautiful watch and the ratio between quality and price is just right. Furthermore, you can get it both in steel and in RG. Best, Kari

. . . will be a special occasion indeed, and a watch is the most deeply personal gift you could give him. Perhaps you're drawn to the Senator Automatic due to its relaxed presentation of the passage of time, without a seconds hand. Possibly the high level...
