I think that somebody already tried this combo....but it's definitely not my style...

[fitmic]

Disgusting, if you ask me.

[Craytonic]

Yeah don't think I would ever want to (or could) pull it off. Very nice glasses though.

Very nice glasses though.

errrrrrrrrrrr, (spits on the floor)

Actually, true horologists do the opposite. You have your dress shirts made with an extra large sleeve so you can wear any size watch and not look like that. I am no horologist (prefer to think of myself as a repologist) but I do highly recommend it. There is nothing funnier than sitting at a business meeting or in a bar and the person across the table from you is trying to get a glance at your watch.

Damn right!

Glad I live in South Florida. Short sleeves for me every day!!!

BTW, that looks totaly gay (not that there's anything wrong with that).

I would imagine this guy would be an easy mark for someone to swipe that atch off of his errrr, wrist?

With the possible exception of hanging your watch on your left ear, that has to be the stupidest way to wear a watch I've ever seen.

[Dutchy]

Apart from others seeing what watch you're wearing, there is no reasonable reason to do this. You still have to lift up the end of your sleeve to see the watch while wearing the complete suit.....whatever.....those glasses look pimp

[tmg]

Believe it or not this is a very old look or style if you want to call it that. I've seen pictures from WWII with soldiers wearing their timepieces outside their sweaters, I assume so they didn't have to lift the sleeve or cuff to see the time. Probably a good thing too if you're hands are holding a weapon.

I also remember seeing Ralph Lauren ads from the late 80's showing this look too. You know, those glasses look like they're from the 80's

This style doesn't do it for me either -but hey whatever makes your rep tick!

Ooooo just did a google search and Arnaud Bamberger from Cartier does, as stated in the blog, also wears his watch on the cuff!!

I don't think anyone is going to argue with you
