Ok so I think whatever I buy needs the ability to be dressed up or down some. I think that's why I've been looking at the blue face 116622. There are times when I feel my 16800 isn't nice enough but I don't wanna wear my 2 tone DJ. I wear a suit 2-3 times a year so for me putting something with a collar on & not wearing sneakers or workbooks are the times when I wish I had something in between that could go with shorts & a t-shirt or be dressed up. If that makes sense!!

I also think that as watch lovers we put way to much thought into stuff like this. I'm sure half the world doesn't care like we do!!! Lol. Why couldn't I just be happy with a timex!!!
