Who should buy which.

The Calendrier Moon Phase Salmon Dial (BU0080-52X): Someone who likes complications and wants a moon-phase watch that is dressy but not formal. Choose a three-hand solar watch if you want plain simplicity, or a pilot chronograph if you want a tool watch.

The Peyten Eco-Drive Blue Dial Gold-Tone (BM7532-54L): Someone who wants a slim, low-maintenance gold-tone dress watch, or a gift that will keep running for years. Choose the Tissot Le Locle if you want a mechanical Swiss dress watch, or a steel watch if gold-tone is not your style.

Before you order.

Citizen publishes a 41.8 mm width but not a lug-to-lug, and Watches of America lists 10 mm thickness. The calendar is not a quick-set perpetual one, so check the manual before travelling across date lines.

Gold-tone plating is a surface finish and the bracelet edges will show wear first. At 41 mm it is on the larger side for a dress watch.
