I used to say there was no way I would buy an LV, because it could only be worn...

with a green shirt. Now I'm thinking it could fly IF I also got a wg Sub-c with the blue bezel and dial, and kept the black Sub-c. Then I could wear the blue with blue shirts, the LV with green shirts, and the black with red or black shirts. I might also have to dig up a rootbeer GMT for the days I wear brown or beige shirts. Any thoughts?

Chris, I think you are trying to justify/rationalize the aquisition of more Rolex wristwatches. As a fellow Fashion King I find my Exp-II or my 14060 wear equally well with both my T-shirts.

Hi Chris, I have to agree Mikey. If you can afford it . . . go for it! I personally find that a black Sub goes with anything.

I wear my LV with anything. It isn't enough green to matter. I actually don't like wearing my LV with a green shirt because it looks like I'm trying to match my watch to my shirt. haha

For some reason I never wear anything green or brown. I always wear white, grey or black with some red in it.

Is this like when women try to figure when to wear white shoes?

The LV will go well with beige or brown. Actually, it'll go with anything except red unless it's the Christmas season.

I personally think you should embrace the addiction.

After those, go get some white dials, platinum dials, and so on...................

I feel your pain. If I had the money, I would do what your thinking.
