Seiko SNKL41 (white version)

While less versatile than the SNK300 series, I’d say the SNKL40 watches are probably even more attractive. They’re marginally dressier but could be pulled off in a variety of settings; it’d probably suit an office environment the best. My favorite part of this watch is the handset, which pairs very well with the elongated hour markers, which help the watch look much classier.

Given that this watch uses the aging (and now discontinued) 7S26 movement, it will only be a matter of time before this model finishes its run, so be speedy! This version is currently available in a few different colors; I’d recommend the black dial for maximum versatility.

I gave further details about this model in this blog post.
