But no one will hold your feet to the fire if you decide to pair this with a buttoned-up business suit or even a black tux for a formal affair. It’s versatile enough to give a little bit of edge to whatever you’re wearing. With a diameter of 44mm, it’s just right for the average man’s wrist.
When do you wear this? Anytime you want. While it’s not a sports watch you take out into the woods for that vigorous hike or mountain climb, it will hold up respectably. As far as bling goes, this is subtly rendered. You won’t have to worry about being too audacious, as this watch is all about respect and sensibility. Retailing at 5400€ (~$6,100), it’s a wise choice for the shrewdly styled man.
