If I had to pick one for myself, I'd probably get some type of Patek or Journe, as austere and simple as possible visually - on a very plain or casual calfskin strap.

The case metal has to be white gold or platinum for sure :)

Edit: A more grounded choice might be a very plain Grand Seiko - particularly the models that didn't feature the word "Grand" on their dials

Moser isn't my personal favorite, but I strongly agree with this choice!

That's such a unique piece, I was offered this exact configuration when this released, but at the time I had been asking to see the variant with the smooth bezel on oyster - needless to say I have not had the opportunity to buy any of these palm dials since 😢
