What time is it? Watches and horology

I have some shirts with the cocktail cuff - not a big fan, fiddly when worn with a suit as the cuff isnt flush enough to the wrist. I got em though because i am a firm believer that cufflinks should only be used when wearing formal wear/suit/jacket.

Jeans + cuffed shirt = big no no, like wearing high heels with a shell suit

this is a good rule. i made some cufflinks out of four regular buttons for this same reason.

god, i love what this thread has become...

Teddy, I wore my new summer plus 4 lightweight wool tweed knickers today on the bike, they are great for smart meetings.

Just before the heat wave hit I saw a girl in some Seven NYC jeans, Acne wedges and mens button down with french cuffs and silver links. looked amazing.

but for boys, yeah I wear those elastic ball cuffling things if I'm wearing a french cuff shirt with out a jacket.

Thats why you are know as a transatlantic man of taste Mr Crash

as long as we are talking about wrist wear, I have been wearing alot more of it, just picked up the bracelet on the right:

and this ring:

Not to be worn together.

also just ordered this:
in a dark sliver.

I need to be better at not spending money.

Is that to help with nose picking or something?

Murts.. where's that site with the mods for my watch.
I'm fucked off with having to adjust the date every month now.. so it might be time for some watch hacking..

I'm looking for a simple but professional looking watch, something that looks like the classic casio here but higher quality, say £100-200 budget. I mean are there even any watches worth buying in that price range or shall i save up for something nice that lasts forever?

I wear a slight variation of this M&co for MOMA watch almost every day as a cheap and chearfull option I don't have to worry about scratching/ losing/ getting robbed over. I have had no problem with mine and have no complaints.

mine is a year old version with a cat for 9, a tree for 3, and an egg for 12. Its not business like but I've had a few girls tell me its cute. Not a statement peice, but then I tend to wear to many of those...

i like these.

nicer in black though Tedster…

oh and these max bill designed watches are pretty classy. a bit more expensive, but really beautiful.

Turks' heads? They better be silk...

Damn this thread jumped up a notch lately.

Anyway, how's your Lorus?
