Can’t really see @Newcomer ‘s pants but he’s wearing a Nautilus apparently… 😉

I just texted him, he's wearing Louis Vuitton leather sweatpants, so I guess his fit qualifies

Very nice indeed !

A little reminder for all the contestants. As previously stated, i will only choose one picture for the voting thread, showing at the same time your watch and your outfit.

As there is a large number of participants, SF members may vote up to a maximum of 4 contestants.

It was a long time since we had a Friday Challenge, usually the winner organized the next Challenge (just saying)...

Entries deadline November 19.

Keep 'em coming !

I was waiting for the class to come in, had been thinking that there aren't enough pocket watches in this thread, and realized this might qualify. Bad photos, but it is what it is. The watch is London-made solid silver from late C18th or early C19th. It was left to me by my grandfather. Suit is Engineered Garments, burgundy turtleneck by Nanouniverse, shoes are Grenson.

I do love this entry. I also have a pocket watch coming from my grandfather that I recently had serviced, but I miss a chain.
Well done!
よろしくお願いします!

My style is very military inspired and historic use in aviation & military is the main reason why this is my favourite watch. It is unfortunately not the vintage version, but hopefully one day I will acquire last production year 16710 pepsi in nos condition.
