Imagine you see a well-dressed man at a fancy gala event wearing a tuxedo. He radiates with sophistication that grabs your attention. Suddenly, he lifts his hand to glance at the time, only to reveal a digital wristwatch embellished with a rubber strap. In an instant, his style goes from fab to drab. That’s the power of a timepiece. Like any accessory, your watch has the ability to make or break your flair. If you’re wondering how to coordinate watches, then you’ve come to the right place. We’ll guide you through some simple rules to follow to make sure that you make a good impression during every occasion.
Consider the Event
Now, the first thing you need to consider is the type of event you’ll be attending. If you’ve been invited to a black-tie function, then you’ll need to dress in your classiest attire. If you decide to go with a watch that has a leather strap, it’s essential that you match the color to your shoes. As a rule of thumb, black leather is more formal than brown leather. One of our personal favorites for fancy functions is this Bulova Gents Yellow Round Silver-White Dial Timepiece This watch features yellow gold, domed mineral glass and a black leather strap.
Color is Key
Your shoes and events aren’t the only thing you should consider when it comes to color. Certain shades of metal should also complement your clothes and other accessories, such as jewelry pieces. If you’re wearing a yellow gold watch, it should match your cufflinks, shoe buckle and belt. Generally speaking, silver watches go best with black, gray and blue clothing while gold complements browns, beiges, tans and other earth-toned shades. If you’re searching for a silver watch, we recommend this Blue Angels World Chronograph A-T from Citizen. This avant-garde style showcases sapphire crystal. stainless steel and blue ion plating.
