Hornet 1 Posted May 30, 2014 Tattoos are good DC; you do whatever you want to you body (I'm not talking about self abuse here....) and wear whatever you want (watch or clothes-wise), don't give fuck what anyone else thinks. If we all wore the same it'd be a really, really boring world.... .....my tattoo is on my back, so doesn't interfere with watch choice!! Not the best photo, but the only one I've got of it..... .....please excuse the spots, the tattoo had only just been 'uncovered'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldrick 1 Posted May 30, 2014 Wouldn't tell you what you should or shouldn't do......but a dress watch with bare arms especially with tats is wrong on so many levels......ink stinks......but the bad taste bears will tell you otherwise....there's enuff of 'em around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

myaz 3 Posted May 30, 2014 We had a thread a while back and people posted pics of watches they thought would be classy dress watches. There was a pic of a diver watch with an orange dial and a nato strap?! Okee.... goes to show....you be fine. Miss Manners is rolling over in her grave.

I've had it on all evening and I don't dislike how it looks but have to say that I'd rather look down and see a sports watch resting on my jeans! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought the point of tattoos was to "define your individuality" that kind of thing?? Should I have got it on your face where everybody can see it in all its glory. Be proud of it I'm in the Balder's camp on this, ink stinks, just scruffy looking, will fade eventually, skin will wrinkle and just become a regret story to tell the grandkids.

Conex 0 Posted May 30, 2014 They're pretty hard to get hold of, took me several months, finally got my hands on it thanks to WatchFinder. The lines are simple and elegant, I love the crown guards in particular DC Great looking Patek DC. What's the model if I may ask? Looks to be about 40mm? A mere 37mm my good man, as per gen, it's a 5107 DC Gotta love the 37mm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Considering the beat up watches, scum caked up between links, some with cracked crystals that I occasionally see on people, the person that posted that orange watch must have thought the same. :o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
