Wear it above the wrist bone and it will look even more stunning that how it already does:-)
I’ve pictures.
Here’s mine under cuffs, fits seamlessly.

Something I've discovered a while back is that dress shirt cuffs need to be adjusted for watches. Any competent tailor (even Nordstrom's alterations department) will tell you that you need to bring your watch to a shirt fitting so that the position of the button(s) can be adjusted for the correct fit.

Not to be too much of a perfectionist, but for those who wear multiple watches of different sizes, there will need to be certain dress shirts that can only go with certain watches.

Luckily, I only wear one watch... So, all my dress shirts are adjusted to one size.

Great pics! Whoever said sport watches don't get well with a suit....?

In the past, when my mother was younger, I had her move the button on the left sleeve of all my shirts to the very end of the cuff and also put some extra height in the thread that connects the button with the cuff. She was extremely skillful.



The best pic that I found with my SD under a shirt cuff





I also wear it over the shirt cuff (this one is super tight) but under the suit cuff.

there are 2 sides fighting in me on the one hand, as if something is wrong on the other, it's very cool and I can't decide :)

This is always an interesting topic, what wears “well” with a suit. First of all, OP, I think that looks fantastic!

Are we really at the point where a Rolex watch would be considered inappropriate with just about any type of dress? Maybe wearing a DayDate to the beach would look a little off, but what about wearing that same DayDate with jeans and a T shirt? I don’t think that would look out of place at all. Same goes for a Datejust, in a suit or shorts, I think it fits right in. The SD maybe does seem a bit bulky for a suit, but I don’t think it would be noticed or considered “out of place.”

Am I wrong?

i would wear a DD to the beach

When i went to Europe for 17 days, i took only one watch. To that end, i wore a white explorer 2 with a suit to a wedding. Normally it would not be my choice for such an event (i'd wear a sub or daytona) but compared to the folks wearing Apple watches, i'd say it was fine.

The only other mechanical watch i saw at the wedding was an American Airlines pilot wearing a Navitimer.

Looks great. I wear a suit almost daily with my Deep Sea Sea Dweller. I have ruined a couple of shirt cuffs over time, but looks stunning.

Who cares what people say..."You do you!"

[herts9]

Big fan. Nothing wrong with that combo nowadays

[travisb]

No rules to the way we wear them.

[Andad]

Nice.

You can show it off like that.

You can’t wear it like that.

[strafer_kid]

Super watch - could be worn with anything!

A Rolex goes with everything!

Looks great. It is all about the tailoring of the dress shirt as to if it fits. But that can be said for a lot of watches.

[Greglaw]

No need to adhere to made up “rules” if you like it wear it.

[subprimero]

Looks great! Enjoy!

A SD is not perfect with a suit but it is very nice 😀
I would suggest to always have a white shirt under that suit and a tie of a breaking color … (green or red for example) …
😁🤪🇮🇹

I completely agree! The Sea-Dweller is known for its robust design and diving capabilities, but it's fascinating to see how well it can blend with a formal outfit like a suit. It's a testament to its versatile design that transcends beyond its intended use. While a thinner dress watch might be on your radar for the future, there's something remarkably distinctive about pairing the SD43 with elegant attire.

[1William]

Looks great.

I toy with the idea of getting a dressier black DJ, but have a hard time justifying because I rarely dress up. Wear a suit maybe four times a year. Love the look of a DJ, that SD looks just fine dressed up. Save me 9K. Thanks

[HogwldFLTR]

I'd wear one with a suit, any day!!! A wetsuit!!!

[twinfo]

Looks lovely, great pics too

[Calatrava r]

Nice.

My SD4K has been to countless client meetings, fancy events, and Michelin starred restaurants… never have I been asked to leave or change my timepiece. I’d say it can hold its own in the field or dolled up… :-)

Lots of SD love posts last few days lol.
