Best Answer 
x = fields.Many2one(model_name, string)

In view

<field name="x"/>

This will give the dropdown on view with create and edit option of the related model and display the rec_name of each entries. If you need the pure selection list as a widget selection with the field.

<field name="x" widget="selection"/>


These are the params we use while creating many2one field.

 
  • comodel_name -- name of the target model (string)
  • inverse_name -- name of the inverse Many2one field in comodel_name (string)
  • domain -- an optional domain to set on candidate values on the client side (domain or string)
  • context -- an optional context to use on the client side when handling that field (dictionary)
  • auto_join -- whether JOINs are generated upon search through that field (boolean, by default False)
  • limit -- optional limit to use upon read (integer)

Next is you can use the Selection.

here you can specify values directly as a key value pair.

x = fields.Selection([
        ('normal', 'In Progress'),
        ('done', 'Ready for next stage'), 
        ('blocked', 'Blocked')], string='State')
