Too long, my friend! Everything is alright here, although I wish the world was in a better stage so we could be closer to friends and loved ones. Hope you and your family are healthy and well! On the watch conundrum, first I gotta say: what an amazing collection!  Of those choices, I’d pick the 15400. It can handle a more formal occasion and is such a stunning piece. Cheers! |

15400 white dial although bracelet is way too flashy for formal dress.

I know this is not on your list - but I couldn’t help myself?

If it’s an actual formal event, the answer is “not a Rolex.”
If in reality it’s semi-formal or below, i.e. you’re not wearing a bowtie, then any of the above will do… |

None of the above is the right answer here. I voted for the AP but as pointed out previously none of these would be appropriate for a formal event.

Good for you. I might wear my Submariner in an upcoming wedding too. I have to be honest here. I just don’t like dress watches. A DJ41 is very nice. I might get one of those, but I’m not sure they’re in the same category as a dress watch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

New rule: there are no rules but people who know the old rules are the ones who will notice. Are any of those type of people’s opinions important to you for whatever reason? That will guide you. |

Whatever you wear, wear it with confidence. Few people will notice or care.

15400ST is the closest option for dress watch.

I apologize, I am not familiar with the reference numbers.
To me, a gold watch to likely match your gold studs / cufflinks. I wore this last weekend, to a wedding in New Orleans, with my Tuxedo / gold studs / gold cufflinks …  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Lol I wish. I’ve been dealing with covid the past week and abstaining from alcohol for obvious reasons. I did go ahead and have 2 beers for thanksgiving but my sense of taste is still a bit wonky so it wasn’t really all that enjoyable. And yes before anyone asks I’m fully vaccinated (Pfizer).
