Some good feedback here I’m really surprised PM Daytona owners don’t wear their watches with suits. I have to agree that the Oyster bracelet works better with a suit than an Oysterflex but it think it doesn’t look as awkward as people think. I’ve worn my D Blue with a suit and have never had an issue.

Then, there you go!

I agree, the rubber strap is hidden. I looks much better!!!

mj1214 · 25 July 2018, 02:01 PM

I’m not a fan of the rubber strap with a suit. But like others said, you can wear whatever - I just wouldn’t do it. Need a DJ or DD :-)

Duke of Dulwich · 25 July 2018, 05:32 PM

Do whatever you like mate. If you believe you can rock it, you can rock it. Besides, most people won’t notice or care.

I love the oysterflex strap on the Ceramic Daytonas and would happily wear one with a suit. I plan to buy a YG version next year.

Having said that, something looks a bit off with your BLNR on the oysterflex bracelet. The matte black rubber appears to take something away from the blue/black ceramic. It might just be me though.

Anyway, going back to the old adage, do what you want and ignore what others think.

Onikage · 25 July 2018, 05:39 PM

Not really. At least they're black and this isn't an AP Offshore funky green or orange with a suit thread.

I love rubber straps on certain references, just not the BLNR so much.

Did you take it off yet?

OP, lean on the forum here...

Accept the advice/treatment.

One last thing, no more argyle socks.

In this day and age you can get away with any watch and strap combo you want. Only WIS will (a) notice or (b) care. If you find a WIS and they notice AND care, then you have an immediate talking point anyway.

Bear in mind more common male wrist adornments are fitbits, Garmins or apple smart watches which all come on rubber anyway so this conundrum is waaaay beyond the concerns of the hoi polloi

Beautiful watch, but put that thing back on the bracelet where it belongs! And yes I'm jealous of that watch

The Patek is much more subdued, not as much "color", less busy overall, more refined.

People won't tell you in your face but still laugh silently at you and might even judge you as a man of poor taste looking for an opportunity to show off

A sportswatch with a suit is simply a no go, ever, what's next ? Black tie with a DSSD ?

RolexEDC · 25 July 2018, 11:25 PM

Daytona a sports watch and I would wear it with a suit, my ad wears his to work every in a suit. As for a oysterflex on a SubC Yes bc it's a dive watch, GMT NO away in my opinion

I think the op was referring to a formal attire sort of suit and not a diving suit.

Bruins7 · 26 July 2018, 05:27 AM

I agree with the others. Has to be a PM model for it to work.

watchwatcher · 26 July 2018, 06:26 AM

I like it.

But, what I know about fashion you could fill a thimble and have a LOT of unused space.

Diving or birthday... Sure.

Any other kind of suit, no.

jlevitt9 · 26 July 2018, 10:11 AM

You know what looks good with a suit? Confidence. Stop caring what random people on an internet forum think and do WHAT YOU WANT! :)

Pauly has more money than God (but not bezos). If Pauly wants to dress atrociously, who among us will tell him?

Your opinion is the only one that counts. Wear the damn thing and don't worry. The vast majority of folks won't notice or care.
