All around
The 233 or the 190 for an all around watch? Let's assume you wear suits...right down to blue jeans.

in nyc, ive seen most guys w/ a casual attire for the 233 (more like the 104, not to many 233'sa around). e.g. suit but no tie or even no jacket but still having on dress pants/shirt and shoes. and definitly jeans. the 190 works well w/ a suit and a more classic look.

Well, hmmmmm...
I like the 233 more, but don't feel like it will go with a suit as well, unless you are a bigger guy with bigger cuffs. The 190 can be very dressy and very rugged with a change of the strap, but it has not date for convenience of everyday wear. Have you tried on Luminor's before Bryan? They are a pretty sporty watch to be worn as dress, but it depends on the kind of guy you are.

Yes, I've tried the LUM's and I have actually owned a 104 at one point. The RAD's began calling me after a while as I think they sit better on my 7" wrist. They look just slightly smaller. Now you have me all confused and I'll end up buying like 4 PAM's.....

Don't get me wrong. I want a 190!!!!!!!
In fact, get the 190 and then buy the new 312 when it becomes available in a year or two!

I think both would look great with a suit. I think the 233 with black leather would be awesome. It's a killer watch.
Of course I am the same guy who wore his 024 (Luminor Sub) on a black Greg Stevens strap with a pin stripe suit today!
