depends on your situation, but no, thats pretty bad. Definately not for formal, but if your summer wear is brown, that would work.

I know big watches aren't very popular here but I love them. I'm a big guy (6'6", 275lbs) so they fit me a little better than some people that wear them. Anyways, I just picked one of these up a few weeks ago. Breitling Super Avenger

Hey, if you like it, get it. Seriously. I, however, do not like it. It reminds me of those 1970s Pulsars.

+2. If you think it fits your style, do it. But I wouldn't buy it--too over-the-top.
