Would you consider or wear the SOH on mesh a dress watch?

Would you wear it under a suit for a formal occasions, eg: weddings, social functions etc?

karmatp · 14 June 2010, 09:46 AM

I think it can be worn for all occasions, like a sub.

jwkunkle · 14 June 2010, 10:21 AM

Agreed...I think it works!

Been there, done that...

So all you have to do is: "Suit up my friend!"

That's a very contrasting pic of your SOH! Looks great on you!

Isnt the bezel to slim and "skinny" for such a big watch ??

Foneguy · 18 June 2010, 05:46 AM

Thanx ultraman,,
....... I don't think it's too skinny because it really does wear well

Sweet!

I will get a SOH with mesh in the next months, for sure :)
You dont have any more pics with cufflinks and shirt?

Looking just awesome.
Hard to decide if the blue / silver or white dial is the best looking.
IMO everyone is a blast!

Thanks for sharing.

Looks nice.

DCgator · 7 January 2011, 04:49 AM

Very nice piece! I think it looks pretty good with both semi-formal, formal (-tux) and casual wear with that mesh band.

No. A sports watch can never be a true dress watch. A dress watch should have no more than three hands, thin, on a strap, and of a precious metal.

Saxon007 · 18 January 2011, 02:21 AM

Honestly, it is doubtful anyone will notice your watch anyway. It is a great looking watch, I only wish they made it in 40mm with a lumed pip on the bezel.

If everyone strictly followed the regimented conventions we would all still be carrying pocket watches.

wisguy · 18 January 2011, 02:56 AM

I have on the Ocean Racer strap, I don't consider it to be a dress watch, too bulky.

That's not to say you couldn't do it, I just don't wear it with a suit.

Even then I'm sure they had really nice pocket watches for dress, and less expensive bulky ones for casual dress or work watches.

Well well...I have been looking for solid gold Sub, but at $12-$16k is a bit much. I have a 2001 Date Just thta a wear everyday and I wanted something bigger. I visited Rolex showroom...saw gold YM II...LOVES IT!!
Left the showroom and dropped into Breitling... all gold too much.
Whlie there I saw Superocean Chrongraph Limited Edition In Silver..I love it!!!
I bought BNIB with 2 years warranty $3982 plus tax...lot cheaper than Ebay.
Now I will look for the all gold YMII

Breitling is an awesome watch for the money

sea-dweller · 30 January 2011, 12:07 PM

Looks great, you can wear it with anything!

Volvomanuk · 15 April 2011, 07:57 AM

I wear mine every day just change the straps, diver/mesh, once a month not every day

Volly

In a heartbeat.

Best,
Ron

PS. Even though it has way too many hands, isn't "precious metal" and sometimes is on bracelet, this one seems to work well as a dress watch for me. Of course, I also wear it with jeans and t-shirt...

PPS. I even like to wear this one with a suit as well...
