Congrats, I just happen to be wearing my Tag Formula 1 today myself Bought this little baby back in 1987 and it has run flawlessly ever since but bezel is really wearing down

That looks like a really nice and fun watch! That's what I love about Tag, their watches are designed to be everyday watches.

For the bezel I think if you send it into Tag for a service they would be able to restore it for you. Genesis Watchmaking are also a very highly recommended company. It might be worth looking into.

You also inspired me to post a picture of mine as well.

Yup! I've tried on a Rolex Datejust with a fluted bezel for example which is also a really beautiful watch but I have to say I enjoy the minimal aspect of the Carrera a lot more.

For example I can wear it to work without having to worry about it being too flashy and it simply looks great!

I have 2 DJ's but as you mentioned, they're a bit flashy so I only wear them on special occasions, but I do really enjoy them.
My OP39 w/white dial flies well under the radar and I love its simplicity.

You're right actually the unfluted bezel looks a lot more minimal, I didn't consider that. It's a very good choice and looks great! Especially with the Oyster bracelet since the Jubilee can be very blingy.

I have to say if I were buying a Datejust though I would want to go all out with the fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet rather than trying to tame it down for work, specifically in my situation anyway since I have a work watch now.

Once I graduate I am planning to get that watch as a going out watch and to keep the Tag for work/everyday.

I do love the UV on the Datejust though. I used to wear a Submariner 1:1 replica (controversial I know but I'm still a student!) and on a night out it got a lot of attention because of the UV.

Thank you.
You're right, if buying a DJ I feel it should be fluted w/jubilee as well.
As far as wearing a replica, the issue I see with that is safety because you could be targeted and harmed for a fake, so...

Couldn’t afford a Royal Oak, so I settled for the CasiOak.

Thanks! I figured I needed an inexpensive and fun watch to complement my Speedmaster.
She was probably thinking I should stop taking photos of my stupid watches and go outside with her - which I did.

Oh my gosh what a surprise it was! So my father-in-law gave me this Aragon the other night just because I sat with him for a week at the Hospital while he went through Chemo treatments for which I was expecting nothing I mean he already let me have his daughter

She’s excited because we finally got some snow this winter.

Nice watch.
Been wearing Marmot since 1993 and I still wear my triple gor-tex jacket from back then, which is still in mint condition.

I expect to be torched by folks who are into the intricate movements and not as much the accuracy, so why an automatic over a battery watch?

I have 3 'decent' watches, and while I do replace batteries, all are accurate to a few seconds +/- a month. I like to look at a watch and see it change time in sync with my computer or phone. I don't need to be anywhere within seconds, just like a timepiece to be accurate.

Here is my latest, now used with a a few NATO straps. JDM Seiko:
