I'd stay away from Geneve or Geneva..I've heard that they are cheaply made and break after a few months..But to each his own..Personally i'd stay with the Movado, and possible get something practical for everyday usage...It sounds like you don't want fancy for everyday use..so just grab a seiko or something for 90 bucks or so..Hold on to the Movado for more dressy occasions or similar times...There's always a time when you need a nice wrist piece!!
