Do you have to match the watch to the outfit?
A nice watch can really top of a look. I know that if I can, I do try to synchronized my watch the color clothes I wear. But ultimately I do believe a nice watch can stand the test of coordination and fit the vibe without totally matching.
What do you guys/gals think?
Wearing a clashing colored watch; violation or valid?

Newbie on a mission to get all I can out of this beautiful watch journey. My philosophy is that life is too short to not pay attention to the passing of time.

If I'm at home then I wear what I fancy, but I do give it a bit of thought when I go out. It either goes with the outfit or it's complementary to stand out. Clashing I won't do.
Anything done on purpose is valid! :)
Never gave it a moments thought in over 50 years.
My outfit today… kinda posted earlier with sneaks and watches post
But it’s all in the attitude my friend… stay sexy 🍻
Matching is for girls. Coordinate, compliment, sure.
Coincidentally, I'm doing this today.
I wouldn't wear a dress watch to the beach or a diver with a suit to an important business meeting. Otherwise, throw the rules out the door and wear what makes you feel right.
I think “match” is a broad term, so I’ll say yes. Sometimes “match” means I wear a dress watch with khaki shorts and a polo or t-shirt. It pulls the whole thing up a notch.
Only in formal or serious business situations in black suits and black leather shoes. Then I change my strap to black leather ones.
Otherwise I wear whatever I feel like wearing.

That is my thought process. If it makes sense to you, that's all that matters.
I wear any watch with any outfit, the watch however must stand out!
