What kind of watch is suitable for a programmer? Replica watch recommendations suitable for programmers

　　In the IT industry, programmers are often called code monkeys. They work overtime every day, staying up until the early hours with their fingers dancing nimbly across the keyboard. They also suffer from the most occupational illnesses. Today, in the information age, they are the backbone and creators of basic services, as well as the greatest drivers of high-paid technological innovation. Moreover, most programmers are homebodies who enjoy subculture. As the upcoming 2017 New Year approaches, programmers who have worked hard all year should buy themselves a gift for the festive season!

　　Although they are homebodies, programmers never give up their pursuit of quality of life. Many of them enjoy socialising, travelling, and of course, watches. Strangely enough, many of the IT programmers I have met are extremely interested in watches. If you are also interested in watches, why not buy yourself one for the New Year? So, what kind of watch is suitable for a programmer?

　　Mido Multifort Series M005.614.36.051.22

　　Watch Series: Multifort Series

　　Movement Type: automatic mechanical

　　Case Material: PVD-coated stainless steel

　　Strap Material: Calfskin strap

　　Case diameter: 44 mm

　　Price: £2800

　　Mido watches are a brand I highly recommend. I believe they offer excellent value for money among mid-to-low-end watch brands, with both craftsmanship and quality justifying the price. This Mido XX is a sports model from the collection, featuring black PVD-coated stainless steel, which is lightweight and hypoallergenic. The watch also has a water resistance of 50 metres and keeps time accurately and reliably. The reason I recommend it is that it is simple, convenient, durable, and stylish.

　　Omega Seamaster 'Bumblebee' 231.10.42.21.01.002

　　Watch Series: Seamaster Series

　　Movement Type: automatic mechanical

　　Case Material: Stainless steel

　　Bracelet Material: Stainless steel

　　Case diameter: 41 mm

　　Price: £2200

　　If you are not a sporty person, I believe this Omega 'Bumblebee' will suit your taste. This watch is an anti-magnetic timepiece released by Omega, featuring a rigorous and sophisticated design with outstanding performance. Because the watch uses a silicon balance spring, you can safely wear it while using various mobile phones, computers, PSPs, and so on. I think this watch might have been designed specifically for IT professionals, as they spend 80% of their waking hours using various electronic devices.

　　Relatively speaking, IT professionals tend to buy watches that are more tech-oriented, with fewer being interested in mechanical or quartz watches. However, the main focus is definitely on simplicity, practicality, and high technological content. Both of these watches possess outstanding technological features in their respective categories. As the year draws to a close, are you ready with your own gift?
