Watches for SA, Thoughts?

Going to be an ib sa next summer, and I wanted to get a watch for the occasion. I saved up around $500 during my current internship and was thinking of getting the watch below. I would appreciate any thoughts! I have always been interested in watches but never had the means to buy one. I have never spent this much on a watch, but I think the "time" is right.

Great choice! I have always been a fan of Hamilton watches. My favorite is the Hamilton Khaki field watch. I would also check out Tissot. The Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 has been on my radar for a while now. It has a nice classic design which will not go out of style.

Personally I picked up a Lorier Falcon II recently and have been digging it. It's only 36mm so may be on the small side depending on how big your wrists are, but the design is on point. 

 

Hamilton is a great choice, I did the same out of college when I had a few dollars and still have it to this day. Not a big watch guy but I know Hamilton is looked at favorably in the watch community.
