In Case of Emergency

I don't have a dress watch, and don't need one often.

However, when the need arises, I came across a combo that works for me; Raven on Fly Dragon gator.

It falls short of a dress watch on several levels, but beats wearing the U1 and I'll have something cool to look at when things get boring.

The Continental would like to say something about that being a dress watch...

How about a minimal stitch black strap?

That's about as dressy as a pair of board shorts.

You missed poor strap choices, didn't you?

You can get a perfectly good Bulova Classic for $100 for dress wear duty twice a year.

All good advice and criticisms, thanks,

But that's my dress watch.

And if it strikes me as wrong "on the day of need", this comes out of my sock drawer.

Board shorts and that watch combo, FTW.

Here's to walking to the beat of a different drummer.

Dress Watch is incredibly ambiguous if you ask me. How dressed up something is or isn't, is entirely up to you and your state of mind. Meaning you can pull almost anything off if you believe you can.

Watches are such an individual accessory, wear what you like. My "dress watch" is my SS Sin 103 on SS bracelet. I love and it works for me.
