When I'm not at work, I'm normally dressed in a £4 H&M T-shirt, Levi's and a pair trainers. Fancy clothes aren't important to be. Be comfortable in your own skin and care less what people think of you.

Yep, I agree. Because it’s really professional and not discriminatory at all to give the “haha 2 thumbs up” to a post that stereotypes my perceived look? It’s all just a joke though.

They're designed to be worn. Wear them. They go with anything, occasionally I sport mine with my overalls and working boots, nobody notices, nobody cares.

The attire/fashion sense in question can also frequently be found displayed on some patrons of most any local blue/white Big Box store.

I wear whatever with any of my watches...honestly I could care less what people think of my style which makes it easier to wear what I want when I want (only exception is work where "dress" clothing is required).

Disagree... these watches are meant to be worn. They're not haute horological pieces... all the scratches can be fixed.

I'm looking forwards to getting my Rolex soon and I will wear it every single day!

No matter what clothes... I'm looking at getting a Sub LB.

I wear my Tudor Submariner with chinos and dress slacks/blazer.

I wear an ElCheapo SS dress watch on a black leather band with a suit/tie.

I wear my Casio Illuminator with jeans (which I rarely wear) or exercise/yard work clothing.

Nobody has ever commented on my watch-clothes combo.

I think most Rolex go well with anything.
