We get to the part where there are already some rules and their violation can cause a lot of raised eyebrows. The strap is a very important part of the watch and it is not reasonable to underestimate its choice. In general, on more festive occasions, two variants are allowed:
black leather and earthy colored leather , for women the Milanese mesh in silver or gold. On the other hand, you don't have to worry about what to choose. Simply match the color of the straps to the color of your outfit or accessories and you're done.
For leisure time activities, you can choose the strap that you like best. Steel straps are great for walking around town, for a night out at an entertainment scene you don't have to be ashamed to put on textile straps, perhaps NATO-style, because sport is probably the best choice for rubber straps or silicone. During your free time you can experiment, but on more formal occasions choose the classic.
As with the straps, the watch itself must be taken into account; on what occasion we wear them. Let's start with the formal event that is most subject to the rules. Best suited here is a simple analog watch with a clear black or white dial, gold or silver body, accompanied by a ladies leather or
Milanese mesh strap and the dial size in the 38-42mm range for men and 32-38mm for ladies, depending on the wearer's wrist size All of this should be aligned with your other accessories and attire, such as the earthy colored strap to the earthy colored belt and the gold watch body to its gold ring. You don't need a modern watch with chronographs and other functions, you certainly don't need a stopwatch in the theater.
Forget your digital watch right away .
For informal occasions, there are no rules , but you should always make sure that they match not only
other accessories, but also the whole outfit. You can take popular chronographs for a walk or for a night out, while Casio digitals can underline your retro state of mind. For sports or cycling, choose a more a durable model with a silicone strap. The imagination has no limits, but it is important to consider good taste.
