a seriously gay question

[BustedS13]

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.

[SW20Racer]

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.

[BustedS13]

short sleeve polos when i have to dress "business casual" and tshirts the other 99% of the time.

Im so confused by your question, this is how I read it

"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.

[SW20Racer]

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've always been under the impression that it's shitty looking to wear a watch with short sleeves. the part about being surrounded by clocks to keep people from posting about how watches are pointless being that there are clocks in just about everything now. but yeah.

watches with short sleeves. is this okay or no way?

/totally gay

[jackjack]

what the hell? why would you look like an asshole? lol. you're thinking about it too much. i use to wear them all the time. polo, tshirt, etc. its fine. not so much anymore because i just use my cell phone to check the time.

Watch with short sleeves is ok as long as you have man arms and not skinny girly looking arms.

[SW20Racer]

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 can tell them time based on the sun, if it's cloudy or night time I can usually come within an hour or three, who needs watches?

haha human sun dial, i bet you lick your finger and put it in the air too huh?

[SW20Racer]

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...

[Full-Lock]

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

[Phlip]

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.

[IIIXziuR]

Just do what you think looks good man.
Just no Casio digital watch with the calculator!!!

[SW20Racer]

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

this has always been my view, but i don't think it applies to more casual watches. like, if i had an omega or any other nice metal watch, i think it'd look ridiculous to wear it with short sleeves.

alright, i think i've got this cleared up.

[Full-Lock]

yes yes i agree
sometimes a more atheltic watch or military style watch ie. lumi nox looks straight with short sleeves

[azndoc]

Just wear the fucking watch.

It tells you time.

Who cares if its long or short sleeves.

As long as your happy who gives a shit what people think.

imho

[jfc3po]

short sleeve button downs are nerd jerseys.....i don't wear jewelry at all...i have like 4 watches that just sit on my desk....lost my $500 class ring a couple years ago......

i can't have nice things....

[eastcoastS14]

haha I loled at this....what do you think is gonna happen? you're gonna be out and someones gonna be like "hey look at this asshole! kids wearin a watch with short sleeves!...FAG!" lol who cares. I mean I wouldnt necessarily wear a really fancy watch if i was in a tshirt and sweatpants or something....but other than that its whatever

[swiftdrift]

ur better off watching the hills my good man.

"Man I promise, I'm so self conscious
That's why you always see me with at least one of my watches
Rollies and Pasha's done drove me crazy
I can't even pronounce nothing, pass that versace!"

There's nothing wrong with you wearing watches with short sleeves....

i know why you embarrass to wear watches with short sleeves......

Arnette, Swatch, Folex!?!......

i'd rather be seen watching the hills than having those watches on me.....

eww, just thinking about that making me feel so dirty!....

how can you look professional with a watch that 15 years old wears?....

you need a MAN watch.....

sorry for being so harsh.....i'm in the watch business.....haha

i can hook you up with some tag, movado, omega, or higher line of seiko(if you're low on cash like me)......

pm me for pricing......

i can get you a good deal, serious.....

sorry, if i had a couple grand to throw away on something frivolous, i'd already have my sr swap done >.<

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.

[sw20>>s14]

what the hell is wrong with wearing a watch? i love wearing my burger king boba fett watch EVERYDAY...when im in a t-shirt, work, long sleeve, jackets, hoodies, even clubbing in a dress shirt...who cares, its a fuckin watch...this is what "the hills" and every mtv reality show does to the population...

[SimpleSexy180]

i didnt know watches were "IN".

unless it plays mp3's? lol

[SW20Racer]

mp3/4's or TAKES YOU BACK IN TIME

edit: dammit, i tried to post a pic of stewie going back in time, but i forgot i cant post pics from here...

[Subzeroqc]

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.
