a seriously gay question
well, a lot of you watch the hills and there's a 500 page fashion thread, so this is probably the best forum i'm on to ask this.
i have a couple watches. but i never wear long sleeve shirts. will i look like an asshole if i wear a watch with short sleeves? they're not "NICE" watches. one's an Arnette with a thick leather band, the other is a Swatch. i've got a Folex somewhere, too. and yes, i'm surrounded by things with clocks in them. but i just like the way they look.

a pretty gaybo answer
like short sleeve button downs, polos or t-shirts? polo's+t-shirts are fine you wont look like an ass but if you have short sleeve button downs, the least of your worries should be the watch
personally, i ditch a leather/rubber watchband if i can switch it out for a chunky metal one, and if i cant, i dont buy that watch. |

"You want to wear a watch and wondering if you can wear it with a short sleeve shirt?" "Your in an environment with clocks in them?" First off, isnt logical to NOT wear watches with long sleeve shirts? Due to the fact that it covers the watch? But yeah Im totally confused about what your situation is / what your asking, please elaborate. |

only retards pop their collar
for a while the only reason i wore a watch was because i was convinced i had people fooled into thinking i was left handed (since i was wearing it on my right wrist) and they wouldnt know where that right hook came from

i get the feeling im digging myself a big gay hole here, but i dont care. androgeny for the win! but yeah, i wear random t-shirts like my old phys ed shirt with a chunky fossil all the time (expensive watches are for people who have nothing better to blow their money on IMO) putting on a polo is dressing up for me and wearing a tie is for funerals. its not a fashion faux pa if thats what you're after. taken from a fashion website: "the key to fashion is believing that you can pull the look off" then they show some japanese teenie bopper with like 5 different bras for a shirt, plaid pants, and ugg boots topped off with a fargo hat. weird.

i know what you mean, i dont look at the watch, i dont even care if the time is off. it just keeps my arm from feeling naked and makes me look hip. like my beret...or my purple acid wash jeans...

i think it looks stupid when a watch is worn with short sleeves. kind of nerdy if you ask me. might as well tuck your shirt into your wranglers and wear new balence shoes with that outfit.
i only like watches with botton down shirts or MAYBE a nice sweater

I wear short sleeves often, like right now, and I more often than not have a chunky metal banded Fossil (today it is a black Adidas) watch on my wrist.
I sit at a computer all day with my call phone sitting in plain view next to me... Your watch is an accessory, one that people have worn casually, more fashion than function for all it is worth. |

a watch with short sleeves is only truly nerdtastic if the watch does math or changes the channel for you, and its a button down short sleeve. there is no point in having a button down short sleeve shirt unless it has "dickies" on it and even then its ok to wear a watch

I hate watches, with a passion.
Sure, they provide a nice accent to your outfit; And they do it much better than some faggotty ass bracelet. But they're always uncomfortable. The get stuck in your arm hair. Or they slide up and down your arm (at least if you have skinny little women arms like me). Or they get in the way when you're trying to reach into a tight space. Or maybe I just have a lot of resentment toward watches because my Dad invested literally tens of thousands of dollars on Breitlings but wouldn't spring for a goddamn Sega Genesis when I was a kid. |

I personally never wear watches with long sleeve shirts. It looks retarded if the watch sticks out or if it stretches out the fabric by being under.
Short sleeves for the win. Fabric or leather bands with t-shirts and metal bands with polos IMO. |
