Get a proper dress watch for that, but between these two, 5711

5711 in this case, but agree with others that something with a leather strap would be more adequate.

I’d pick the 5711 as well but wouldn’t be surprised if no one notices your watch or would if you wore the Aquanaut. In fact, from a distance and under a sleeve non WIS guests may just think it is a black leather strap.

Thanks! I don’t have any leather banded watches so will go with the 5711.

Any recommendations for a leather banded watch that can also be worn casually?

5212. Absolute strap monster and can be very formal or very casual depending on the strap you pair

That brings up another wedding-related question: Crocs or flip flops?

I enjoyed the 5167 at my wedding

I know, I know, you’re not supposed to wear a watch with a tux, but life is short, why not.
