Do you wear SUBs, as a dress watch?

How you dress and situation but nothing to do with expensiveness of the watch. Think it differs from conservative Europe to US or China or Russia also.

I normally wear a less formal suit (blue or grey) and for example Explorer 16570, Sub would be ok to., when roaming around office in ‘startup’ environment. When having a pin stripe suit, tie and shiny shoes in a meeting with bankers a dress watch feels more appropriate. Think it’s about sensitivity to the situation, I don’t like to stand out for my clothing or watch.

Good point!

Do you really have to wear a suit at a startup?

That would be harmful to someone’s health out here.

Which is sad. Man, I miss New York!

It’s not that kind of startup with a bunch of 20’ something, just easy to have a ‘uniform’ and I don’t like t-shirt and jeans style.. although if I lived in a warm climate I’d reconsider.
