Nice watch, blech outfit (pic)

[zjpj83]

Folks at TimeZone are supplicating themselves to this guy's picture because he is wearing a $300,000 minute repeater Patek.

You'd think he could afford better than an Hermes tie and a suit with shoulder padding that doesn't ripple up.

I would think that particular posture would result in rippled shoulders on just about any suit.

apparent lack of collar stays?

At least his cuff isn't unbuttoned

That guy looks like he's had some serious plastic face surgery.

+1, "working" buttohnoles and the cufflinks telling me a complete different story to blech.

Points for unusual cufflinks and octopus print tie.

My only major issue with his outfit is the solid silk pocket square. I just can't do that.

Can someone please explain to me why that watch is $300,000? Is it the 'one watch' forged in the pits of Mount Doom?

It's funny, that is same amount of money I am looking at spending right now on my first house...sigh.

It's a minute repeater. I could explain it, but I would not do justice to the work involved. Wiki or google "minute repeater". Some cost much, much more.

I have no choice but to don a solid PS when I wear that kaleidescope of a jacket you sold me!

Ahh good ol' wikipedia. So it makes acoustical noise to tell the time. The perfect church and business meeting watch.

I feel bad that I was not able to get that to you at a lower price

. Let me kow what, if anything, you are currently looking for and hopefully I can track something down for you cheap

Still, no excuse to wear a solid silk pocket square. I'd expect that from David Beckham.

Interesting cuff links.

Are those octopus on the tie? That makes it the greatest Hermes tie I've ever seen.

I disagree. He looks better than most business men in New York City. I don't care for Hermagamo ties either but some people (including great dressers) seem to have a passion for Hermes ties and even collect them

He also dresses much better than the typical collector of fine timepieces. If you've attended a TZ or Purists get-together, you'll know what I mean

what is that tie knot?
