Which Watch Shall I Wear For An Interview

Got an interview in the centre of London tomorrow.

I've been unemployed since 11/07/2008 and so I'm anxious to make a good impression.

It's a pretty highly paid job dealing with corporate bankruptcies.

I'm unsure whether to wear one of my smart Accurists or one of my Reps. Below is a list of my Reps and I'd appreciate anyone's input on which one I should go for (sorry no pics as I had to sell my camera to get some cash for Christmas :( )

Sub (black face and bezel, steel bracelet)
Sub (blue face and bezel, all gold)
GMT Master II ("Pepsi")
Tag Link Chrono
Mont Blanc Timewalker (rose gold with brown leather strap)
Breitling Superocean
Omega James Bond

Personally, I'm going with the black sub as it's smart and not over the top.

Thanks folks.

Are they all of the same quality? Assuming so, I'd go Omega or SS Sub... if they fit with your shirt (i.e., under and sticking out discretely). If they don't I'd go with any that does... you do not want to "outwatch" your interviewer AND put it in his/her face!

My $.02...

Good luck tomorrow, mate!

Shine up the Tag baby! The Bond would be a good choice too. They both say, I am successful but not pretentious. Best of luck!

To hell with all those suggestions. If you want a watch that has presence, projects confidence, AND makes a bold statement about who you are, there's really only one choice:

Just make sure you set the Dixie alarm to go off during the interview. People LOVE that!

You've got way more important things to worry about than what watch to wear... they probably won't even notice since your sleeve will be covering it up... they are all nice watches.

But since you asked...

There are two options....

A) Tell them that you are interested in working there, but you wouldn't miss the Manchester United game for anything!!!

B) If your in the financial industry have the watch on cnn or msnbc on mute and show him that you are more up-to-date and intune with the markets than anyone you know.

He bought that one from me. I used to be a dealer and sold the Dukes of Hazzard watch. It's an awesome watch if you hate rehaut.

I think your original decision to wear the black Sub is a good one. Of course if you were wearing a Cartier I would hire you on the spot. :D

:lol: :lol: :lol: That's just cracking me up... I may have to get one as a joke for a relative http://www.pophouse.com/display.php?cat=28&item_id=P480

:lol: :lol: :lol:

The worse thing is I've never actually seen a whole show... I wasn't in the US when that show was popular, I suppose...

Instead of worrying about what watch to wear, I'd spend more time preparing myself for the interview if I were you. The watch you wear will not push you over the top but how well you prepare yourself might.

Good Luck! Get yourself another nice watch when you've got the job.

Allow me to summarize every single episode.

Bo and Luke are [hunting, fishing, listening to country music] when one of their [friends, ex-girlfriends, cousins, school teachers] gets arrested by Boss Hogg and Roscoe P. Coltrane for a crime they, of course, didn't commit. Bo and Luke ask Uncle Jesse what to do. Daisy Duke walks in to scene for no reason wearing very short shorts. The actor playing Uncle Jesse tries very hard to look paternal and not creepy and turned on by Daisy. Bo and Luke come up with a plan that's so crazy it just might work. The plan inevitably involves jumping the General Lee over a [river, ditch, house, circus, Daisy Duke, junkyard, missile with nuclear warhead]. They make the jump and yell "WOOOOOOOO!!!" This somehow proves that the [friend, ex-girlfriend, cousin, school teacher] was innocent. Boss Hogg and Roscoe throw their hats down in frustration. If the [friend, ex-girlfriend, cousin, school teacher] is female, then either Bo or Luke gets a kiss before they leave (because the friend, ex-girlfriend, cousins, school teacher never seems to live in Hazzard). Roll credits.

Hope that helps.
