Hello Everyone,
This is my first post on any watch forum and I've been a registered member at a few forums for quite some time now. However, I haven't posted any topics due to the fact that I'm just a "newb" in the rep watch world and would rather remain in the dark and just do as much reading as my time permits. Moreover, I've always been fascinated by all of the reps available to the community, thanks to all of the watch dealers, but I am still not an owner any of them. This will soon change though, because I have finally decided to purchase a few reps to begin my watch collecting journey.
I've been wanting to get a Breitling Navitimer (Black or White face) on a leather strap, an orange bezel 42.5 or 45mm Planet Ocean, or a PAM 111 (still don't know the difference between 111H, 111G, etc...). These are all sport or casual watches. As a little side info, I'm currently 21 years old and am attending college (business school). My wrist is around 6.7"... which watch would suit me best considering my age and wrist size. Also can I wear these watches with a suit?
Another set of questions that I have, is in regards to my older brother. He currently owns a gen AP Royal Oak gen Datejust and gen Daytona. However, he wants a new dress watch to wear for work so we went to Tourneau and he was strongly considering getting a Patek Philippe (not sure which model). I then proceeded to telling him about rep watchs and all of these forums... he got all excited and told me to purchase him a few reps instead. My question is which Patek Philippe rep should I purchase for him. I showed him this watch and he fell in love with it but, is it a reliable and worthwhile watch? FYI, he meets with a lot of people on a daily basis and most of them are fairly wealthly.

The other watch that he wants to get is the IWC GST Stainless Steel ( tried to convince him to get the TI but he likes the stainless steel more)
I'm sorry that this post is so long... but any help that I can get would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
