What if you occasionally find yourself going to formal events, and want a dedicated dress watch to go along, but don’t want to spend a massive amount of money for said accoutrement? Relax–you don’t necessarily have to run out and purchase a Patek Philippe or a Vacheron Constantin. Raymond Weil offers some extremely elegant dress watches that will keep your financial outlay extremely modest.

The Raymond Weil Tradition watch collection offers some very attractive choices. If you want total convenience, (i.e. pick up your dress watch which you haven’t worn for a month, put it on and you’re good to go), you may opt for one of the battery-operated Quartz models, which are presented in both round and rectangular shapes.

If, like me, you insist upon a watch which ticks, even if it is only worn every so often, then you will likely turn to the Raymond Weil Tradition Automatic watches–shown in both a classic round shape, as well as a TV-screen shape which is distinctive yet still very attractive. Two very nice features that these models possess are very pretty blued hands, and an exhibition caseback that allow you to admire the mechanical movement.
