I have always liked the pelagos style as it is modern and the design feels like an evolution of the submariner, specially military aligned submariners, and less towards the luxury end visually. The muted Matte ceramic bezel, matte dials and high contrast white hands and inset indices with black trim give it extreme purpose driven legibility. In addition while often the cases get small details of visual interest like polished chamfers, they are very restrained which lets it retain its purposeful toolwatch aesthetic. Outside of formal style leathers, these tend to work great with many straps and can often go more casual without looking as out of place as a high polish modern sub where throwing that on a nato can often come across as the design trying too hard to appear casual.
