As the guys generally grow older, one of the things that we really look forward to is a great boys’ night out. Well, as the old adage goes: work hard, and play harder. After prolonged hours of working hard, we definitely need to take a time out.
A typical boys’ night out usually happens at a drinking place. It can be a local pub, a nice bar, or even a glitzy club. Of course, different location usually meant different outfits. And that, preferably, meant a different watch to match as well.
So, what are some of the suitable watches that we think are excellent for a boys’ night out? Let find out!
SEVENFRIDAY S-series
First up, we have the funky S-series, from the highly successful SEVENFRIDAY.
Since its inception back in 2012, SEVENFRIDAY had acquired a reputation for producing well-designed watches with a reasonable price-point. The rounded square cases, together with its signature industrial-inspired design, had garnered a fair share of following throughout the last 5 years.
While SEVENFRIDAY explored different design styles with the V-series and Q-series, many collectors seem to prefer the aesthetics of the original P-series. This lead the brand to produce the S-series, which we are recommending. Essentially an evolution from the original series of watches with notable differences in the addition of an animation ring and crown guard, as well as a re-worked dial.
The timepiece is powered by Miyota’s 82S5. It is an automatic movement, featuring a power reserve of around 40 hours. It is also fitted with a NFC chip, which allows the owner to check for the authenticity of the watch, and other value add services SEVENFRIDAY will announce in due course. The 47mm timepiece is priced at S$ 1,915, and we feel that this is a great timepiece for something fun on a boys’ night out.
NOMOS Aqua Ahoi Datum
Over the last few years, NOMOS have generated quite a fair bit of interest in the watch collecting community. Collectors have started to notice this Glashutte-based watch manufacturer, who produces in-house manufactured watches at a reasonable price point.
The Aqua Ahoi Datum is one of the latest prices to join the remarkable collection. Featuring its signature Bauhaus-inspired design, the Aqua Ahoi Datum looks simple and minimalist. There are three different dial variations for the watch: white, dark blue, and light blue. Our favourite is the Ahoi Atlantik, which features the dark blue dial. We think that the colour pairs very well with the cream numerals and indices.
The 40.3mm timepiece is powered by NOMOS’s in-house DUW5101. This is an automatic movement, which comes with NOMOS Swing System. The additional function of the watch includes a date indicator, and it boasts a decent power reserve of around 42 hours. It is also worthy to note that the movement’s finishing is done rather nicely as well.
The Ahoi Atlantik Datum is priced at S$ 6,010. We foresee that its simple and […]
