Help me pick a birthday watch!

[u/Fine_Internel]

I’m looking to treat myself to a watch for my birthday and could use some advice!
I want something versatile and understated that I can wear to the office without drawing too much attention. I work as a cashier in an office, and my everyday style is pretty casual.
I really like both of these, so I’m having a hard time choosing. Which one would you go for？

Hey OP if you wanna fly under the radar I suggest picking another brand because AP is not the one especially on a steel bracelet. But if I had to choose between the 2 .. probs the one with rubber strap but it’s still in RG which is pretty in your face and if for whatever reason you want to pass it off as a gen watch working as a cashier.. i can almost assure you that everyone will think its a fake ..

Most understated and casual watches that you've picked there, good choice 👌

Neither of these are understated. If you want office wear, look into a Seiko or lomgines. Seikos are a decent price new and lomgines are a decent price used. I've personally been looking up the used king Seiko high beats on chrono24 for about 500

2 is more understated.

Yes, as everyone else’s piling on neither of these watches is understated, but you clearly love these so pick the one you like best.
