I’m not the “matching” type of guy. In fact, I’m anti-matching often times. I don’t necessarily want to clash, but I avoid looking too matchy-matchy.

My father matches everything. Literally, everything. And I inherited his limited attention span, love of cars, love of watches, and dedication to his wife. But not his desire to match.

That said, I’m noticing a very unconscious trend with me. Maybe it’s a sign from the watch gods.

Black and blue--It's all the rage!

Nothing wrong with that

crazymcmichael · 11 February 2018, 02:59 AM

Haha, love that BLNR however i literally hate matching! I see this a lot at you guys and i think personally it is a bit of a pitty... No offense, anyone have to do exactly what they want but i just look different on this subject. However, for me personally it would be cool to dress like Denzel Washington in the book of eli(not literally) but personal inspired by and than with a watch that you think is perfect in this style :P But perhaps i am a fool, so don't feel offended by me... I hate formal clothing to and i hate it to buy new clothes as i never can find something cool especially not in my country... I hate what is trendy for example and i hate it when somebody tries to hard to be special aswell.... I stick to black shirt jeans and rotten sneakers i think :)

dont hate, appreciate!

kilyung · 11 February 2018, 03:13 AM

Coincidental? Well, maybe it has more to do with your favorite colors? Blue and black are two of my favorite colors so it's only natural that most of my possessions are those colors.

GradyPhilpott · 11 February 2018, 03:14 AM

I’m thinking the exact same Mike.

Even my two business are blue and black in the logos.

Might just be a true blue (no pun intended) keeper for me.

It just dawned on me that I have about 50 black t-shirts and about dozen pairs of blue jeans and I wear that combination practically everyday.

For me at this time, it's just the luxury of living a casual life without having to make decisions about what I wear most days.

Maybe I should wear my BLNR more often.

I’m similar.

I have about 10 pairs of the same pants. And many of the same shirts. Simply because when I find something I like, I want to wear it everyday. So I buy a lot.

Keeps life pretty simple.

You're young. You've got plenty of time.

I dress simply and casually but I like variety, so I have different brands, designs, and dial and/or bezel colors and I rotate them based on what I wear. Let’s face it, whether we admit it or not, watches today are a men’s accessory item Of course I’ve also got a stainless steel black dial that goes with everything!

(Too late). Jk, obviously. My wife would kick my butt if I got out of line. But I still don’t get it.
