Workplace styling rules: how to pair replica watches with suits

　　As people's awareness of watches grows, they are beginning to wear them on all sorts of occasions. In particular, outside of daily life and the workplace, pairing watches for professional wear requires some care. Aside from sports-heavy models and rubber straps which are less suited to formal attire, replica watches in various other materials and with functional complications can be worn with suits. However, in most cases, they should be coordinated not with the suit itself, but with your other accessories.

　　1, pay attention to the strap. For formal wear, leather watch straps only come in two acceptable colours: brown and black. Which one you choose depends on the colour of your belt and dress shoes. The general rule in fashion is that all leather items you wear must be colour-coordinated, and the watch strap is no exception. Generally speaking, men's suits are mostly dark in colour, so from the perspective of the strap, the watch strap should not be too light to avoid creating a harsh contrast.

　　2, complicated and chronograph models. Strictly speaking, overly complex watches, especially chronographs, do not fall into the category of dress watches. Only certain ultra-thin perpetual calendars, moon phases, and dual-time models qualify—in short, the thinner, the better.

　　3 Pay attention to the dial colour. Much like the strap, as long as the dial colour is not overly vibrant, it is easy to coordinate. Some suggest the colour should not be darker than your suit; therefore, be cautious with black dials. A light grey suit paired with a black dial can look quite odd. Silver or enamel dials are versatile options that are simple to style.
