Hello crunchies. What do you think of pairing a bracelet with a dress watch? Personally, I associate a steel (or titanium) bracelet with practically all my watches. Not to worry about moisture or sweat. Does this shock you? Have a good weekend everyone.๐Ÿ˜‰

That President bracelet dresses it down a notch. Perhaps a 1.0 Milanese or Beads of Rice may pair with it a bit better. But hey, if any bracelet is your thing, then go for it. Image

Sure, why not? Just not when wearing a tux, though. Then, a simple uncomplicated 2 or 3 hander on a leather strap would be the traditional choice. But in other dress situations, go for a bracelet if thatโ€™s what you like and are most comfortable with.

My 36.8mm Omega blue dial De Ville Pestige came with a nice 19mm jubilee bracelet, which I think suits it nicely, however, I'm about to buy a black leather strap to match it for a more formal event ๐Ÿ‘.

Thank you for this review. In fact, I don't really have the opportunity (ever) to wear this kind of costume. But I like the worked Seiko dials and pair them with the steel bracelets.๐Ÿ˜…

THANKS. I'm not a big fan of Milanese bracelets, I don't really know why. I will try with a BOR bracelet, I hesitated between the two.๐Ÿ™‚

Yup, go check it out via photos first, before splashing cash on getting one. You'll surely get a feel if it'll look good on the Urushi dial. As an example, this Kuoe field watch looks good on both nylon straps and a BoR...

Am a huge bracelet fan but some watches just don't belong on metal. This MIGHT be one or just may need to try a BOR.

As long as it looks nice who cares if it's "right" or "wrong"?
