A watch is more than just a mere tool for watching the time. It can be something that enhances your looks and style. Combining the right timepiece with your business attire can drastically improve your professional look and exude confidence without being overbearing.
That being said, not all watches are suited for a professional look. Some are great for a casual fit, while others can be more functional rather than stylish. The solution? Stone and Browne
Watch! Yes, you heard that right. Stone & Browne watches can handle all your business look needs, with their unique colour collection and interchangeable bands providing versatility to be worn through.
But how do you pair a watch to fit business attire? Here's a detailed guide to Styling Your Stone & Browne Watch with Business Attire. So, the next time you attend a business meeting or head to a seminar, you know how to look put together.
How to Style Your Stone & Browne Watch with Business Attire?
All Stone and Browne watches are versatile and go well with any attire. However, there are a few things you can do to style the timepiece better with a particular business outfit.
Consider the Occasion
First, consider the occasion you will be joining, that is, whether it is a formal meeting or a casual event. Formal business settings aren't for anything too flashy or intricate. The Stone & Browne 40mm Suit & Tie is just the right fit for these events. A subtle dial and the sleek leather strap (brown or grey) are sure to add a touch of sophistication to your attire. This watch is perfect for making a polished impression in boardrooms or high-stakes meetings.
Likewise, if you are in a more relaxed dress code, you have the leverage to experiment with some bold designs. In comes the Stone & Browne Emerald 40mm. The inescapable timepiece, with its stunning emerald-green dial and metal strap, lends a hint of personality to your business-casual outfit. Hence, it would be a good fit for both networking events and after-work drinks.
Match the Watch Strap with Your Shoes and Belt
Business attire is all about the coordination of the overall look, and your watch strap should not be an exception. You get the perfect look when you match the watch strap with your shoes and belt.
- Leather Straps: Leather straps will always be necessary to complement one's shoes and belt.
- Black Strap: Matches with black shoes and a black belt to achieve that clean and unified look.
- Brown Strap: This goes well with brown shoes and a brown belt to bring some warmth and sophistication to your overall look.
- Black Strap: Matches with black shoes and a black belt to achieve that clean and unified look.
For something a bit more versatile, look at the Stone & Browne 40mm Crisp White and its interchangeable leather straps for switching between black and brown.
Coordinate Metal Tones
If your Stone & Browne watch has a metal strap, pay attention to the tone of the metal to make sure it will be in harmony with your accessories and suit. Even if the watch has a leather strap, it's good to match your accessories with the metal tone of your watch frame.
-
Silver Metal Watch: This will go well with cooler tones like grey or navy suits. Combine this with silver belt buckles or cufflinks for a sleek, modern look.
- Gold Metal Watch: This will fit well with warm tones like brown or tan suits. Pairing this with gold accessories, such as cufflinks or tie bars, gives you an effortless finish.
The Stone & Browne 40mm Blush, fitted with a silver metal band, is more versatile and pairs better with most business attire.
Balance the Size of the Watch with Your Outfit
Sometimes, the size of your watch dial can make all the difference in how your outfit looks in a business setting.
- 40mm Watch Dial: The 40 mm series provides a classic, understated appeal that is just perfect for formal events and for those with small wrist sizes.
- 44mm Watch Dial: On the other hand, the 44 series makes a bold statement for modern and confident looks for business people with larger wrist sizes.
Pay Attention to the Dial Colour
The dial colour of your watch can subtly influence the tone of your outfit. Choosing the right dial colour can enhance your overall look.
-
Neutral Dial Colours (Black, White, or Grey): These dials are incredibly versatile and go with almost any business attire. They're perfect for formal settings where an understated look is key.
- Bold Dial Colours: In cases where bold colour needs to touch your wrist but should not go overboard, bold colours like emerald, blue, or green do that touch. For example, take the Stone & Browne 40mm Dirty Olive with its striking olive-green dial; this is perfect for giving your business look a modern twirl.
In conclusion, a Stone & Browne watch is much more than just time-keeping; it's a statement of style and sophistication. Consider the occasion, coordinate your watch strap with your shoes and belt, match your metal tones, and balance the size of your watch with your outfit- it's as easy as elevating your business attire. The key here is to attain that sophisticated business look while being subtle.
