·I do not like wearing dress watches for some reason. My 105.003 is my dress watch
Can a Speedmaster be a proper dress watch?

··Wow! Custom title... coolI would have switched the order of diver and chronograph - for "business formal" as one might be timing things as a business man but never go diving.
Soooo what do you call this 😕

··Wow! Custom title... coolI think a Speedy on a dark brown leather strap looks awesome with a white shirt and a jacket/blazer but I have a hard time fitting it under the cuff as I mostly wear slim fit shirts which apparently also are slim fit for the sleeves

·Can a Dressmaster be considered a proper Speedwatch. I need to rephrase that because I dont understand either questions 😀
But seriously, it makes me lookfeel better in a suite and as well in a Bar, wearing casual Kreuberg Style. Just don't worry, it'll make any dress look excellent.

·Someday, maybe, you WIS types will realize most people don't give a rat's ass what watch you're wearing. They don't even notice unless you're wearing something truly ridiculous. If your watch is supposed to get you noticed, you're into jewelry, not watches. If I'm at a social occasion and somebody asks about my watch, I assume they're one of you people and blast them with the nearest fire extinguisher.

But for the few who do notice, isn't it nice when they notice something cool or interesting instead of boring?

Possibly an overreaction.

·OF COURSE, Definitely, and Hell yes !!! in my opinion. Many people in this forum will think of it as a tool watch. For me if it looks nice and thin enough to fit under your cuff. It can be a dress watch. It's a nice class piece that only watch guy can understand.

You are attacking clothing etiquette in general I guess. If a guy turns op in a nice suit wearing flip flops I really don't give a s#%t but my eyes would probably be more at ease, if he wore something "more fitting". Because how we present ourselves matter and has mattered always whether we like it or not and matters for a lot of the species which use sexual propagation.
Watch is just a part of that. Fever people probably notice than if your wear the "wrong" pants or top but you could also say that about socks, ties, belt etc.
Yes watches are very much fashion but so is all clothing and styling.

·Wearing a tool watch as a dress watch may not get you escorted out of Her Majesty's garden party by security, but it's a long way from being the right thing to wear. They probably wouldn't kick out an honoree who wore combat boots with a suit either.

·Call me unsophisticated but I simply do not get this. It's not as if we are talking about a $10 jelly bracelet Disney watch here. This is a $5500 watch, the likes of which we are fortunate to be able to afford, as most cannot. Perhaps the circles I run in are far too pedestrian? I am unable to fathom an event nor outfit in which strapping this kind of cash on my wrist (or any of my other nice watches) is considered in poor form. Although, if such events do exist, I am wholly disinterested in attending.

·I completely agree that expensive and classy are not the same. However, neither are classy and dressy. My thesis being the latter and not the former. I think that abomination you linked is a perfect example of both dichotomies.
P.S. Now I need to scrub my eyeballs with a Brillo pad in an attempt to erase that watch image!
