Shirt too baggy. It's not slim-fit. You should get all your shirts tailored, especially since you lift weights. These days, all shirts are made on assumption that everyone in the corporate world is a fat fock.

Tie should not go past belt. Also, you should learn how to tie a Windsor knot, especially if you are using a "fat" tie like that one.

Can't see the slacks, but I'm assuming they are baggy as well. Again, best fit is always tailored.

And lastly, it is bad style to wear a watch like that when dressing up IMO. It's better to wear a leather wrist strap watch

I will co-sign with this. Get it tailored and the reception you get from EVERYone will be hands down better. You wont seem so much as kid trying to fit into corporate world, but young professional taking over!

i agree with everything you say except the watch part. The watch looks great. A bit flashy for my tastes but it still looks nice

**platnm** · 05-13-2009, 03:50 PM

Actually, his watch looks fine. His tie may be too long, but I definitely don't agree with wearing only skinny ties. It depends on the occasions, however, since when did this become a judge other people thread? Style is different on everyone, just because someone doesn't dress like you doesn't mean they dont have style.

True. I did state it was my own opinion. I really like the watch, but I would wear it with a less formal outfit.

I don't think anyone's judging. Personally, I was just trying to help. Maybe the watch comment was a little over-the-top since that was just a matter of opinion, but everything else I think is helpful

**BangBrahs** · 05-13-2009, 05:33 PM

This may be a stupid question, but can tailors shorten t-shirts and polos? I went to RL and found some nice t-shirts and polos. They fit my body but they are too long.

yea submariners are meant to be daily wearers. they look best with polos, or like casual night out clothes.

a nice watch with a leather band or a less flashy watch of the same type looks best with a nice suit

**tone4now** · 05-13-2009, 06:28 PM

okay the responses have gotten pretty ridiculous. whoever said you can't wear a Submariner with a dress shirt and tie has absolutely no idea what he is taking about. Opinion or not, that is the most absurd thing I have heard on this entire thread. That is an insane statement. I cannot believe anybody would say that.

yeah, anyone that says that just isn't thinking. sure some leather strapped watch might fight better with a suit, but to say a submariner doesn't fit, as if it's a baseball cap is just ludicrous.

It is not that ridiculous brah. A lot of people agree a dress watch should be small and discrete. A submariner is a sports watch. There is nothing "absurd" or "insane" about it, but I do agree it is just opinion. I wasn't saying your watch was out of place with the rest of your outfit. I was just saying if you're going for more formal wear, a classic leather strap watch would be more suitable/fitting.

Lol similar question hopefully not stupid, I was wondering if polos could be tailored to trim down the chest or waist, I've got a few RL polos my girlfriend got me that are to wide in the chest but I dont even know if they tailor polos.

i got my order in from BB yesterday and one of my polos is the same yellow one that you got. the other 2 are solid and i also got 3 slim non-iron dress shirts and a sky blue part linen, part cotton shorts.

**captainhorseboy** · 05-13-2009, 08:07 PM

I disagree, Breitlings look the shizzle with a suit, especially with the stainless strap. Watches with a leather strap look kinda homo to me. What would look absurd is if I wore my Jacob 3.25ct diamond watch with a suit... Cartier Roadster Chrono fits the bill much better. The Submariner is a nice daily wear watch and can go with pretty much anything.

Although with all of the above said, I did agree with all of your other comments clothing wise, just not on the watch front.

Anyway, this thread is all about advice, so lets gogogogogo with more new styles!

PS get to order all the RL Custom Polos tomorrow from the RL site as it's the first day of the sale. Thanks for the code Roach, $40 a pop is awesome.
