White / Silver Dial Dress Watches – Citizen $281 | Kenneth Cole $109 | Bulova $201

In case you missed the Citizen that was dropped into the “How to Buy a Tux” feature from last week… here it is again.  There’s just something about the contrast between a black leather band, and a white or silver dial on a round dress watch.

The cliche is accessories are the last things you put on, but the first thing someone notices. A guy’s watch can say a lot about him, and a white or silver dial dress watch when worn with a suit looks smart and powerful all at once.

Citizen Eco-Drive Calibre 8700 – $281.25

Lots of detail, but it doesn't look too crowded.

There’s no shortage of details and features on this light powered model from Citizen.  Roman Numerals, Month/day/date perpetual calendar, dual time 24-hour dial, and it’s a chrono.  Calendar good through 2100.

Kenneth Cole Iconic Chronograph – $109.00

Low cost, high style value.

Easily the watch that delivers the most bang for your buck if you’re looking to buy a white dial black strap chrono.  The numerals are small and thin, but still easy to read.  It looks kind of like an old school room clock and a flight dial were blended together.  Just over $100.

Bulova Mechanical Hand Wind Automatic – $201.41

At the office or black tie, it'll fit in just fine.

The fact that this one got left off the list of Top Bulova Watches is something of an embarrassment.  The case is a perfect 43mm, the dial is textured, and it’s secured with a push button deployment clasp.  Just over $200.

All of these are classic but not stuffy. It’s all about standing out quietly, and these three watches do just that.
