[Baltic Hermétique] Help me pick which colour

I have recently gotten a new job overseas, which is great, and the first new job since I went straight into work from my uni graduate training.

I want to get a nice watch to celebrate and start wearing rather than just my Garmin. Ideally robust enough for an active outdoor life, waterproof, made in Europe, affordable but looks nice. Hoping for one watch to do it all and wear every day.

What colour do you think looks best and why, if possible? For reference, I have very similar/same skin colour and wrist shape as the model.

Anything else I'm missing or haven't thought of?

Edit/addition: I don't work in a very professional space I.e no suits or formal atire, quite casual so not too concerned about 'looking smart', rarly go to formal events/black tie.

At a glance, I'm leaning towards the blue. It seems like the most well rounded, maybe? But I vaugly recall Gordon ramsay used to wear a bright yellow watch that seemed quite cool, so maybe the yellow or orange I could pull off perhaps every day? Or might it look ridiculous depending on the outfit.

International immigrant registered and seeking local prep resources

Hey everyone,

I’m a recent international immigrant to Vancouver from the UK where I worked in primary care/family clinic in a role similar to that of a nurse practitioner, for some context. After going through the registration process, I’ve finally been approved by and completed both written exams and now have a date for my practical assessment scenarios which is coming up soon.

Given my background is in primary care, it’s been a while since I’ve dealt with roadside scenarios, so I’m looking for any local resources, training days or even just advice from others who’ve gone through this. Are there any group study sessions or drop-in clinics in Vancouver where I can brush up on my skills or get a feel for the practical side of things? I’m keen to see how things go post-registration, but I’m not in a rush to re-join the ambulance service just yet.

Is it safe to assume the practical will include a mix of peads, adults, trauma, and presumably a medical arrest?
Any tips from internationals who’ve made the jump especially those from primary care backgrounds?
Are there any local meetups or study groups I can join to get some hands on practice?

I’m open to all advice whether it’s study resources, personal experiences or just general encouragement.

Cheers!
