I have done this as a summertime black tie fundraiser at the zoo. Minus the YG DD because well, I don’t own one. Sadly.

Just feels odd but cool.

OP, I would say wear what you have, what you like. But this is my go to tux watch.

I like the James Bond look of the Submariner.

A watch that doesn't snag your cuff.

That Sub is awesome. Put it on a NATO to complete the look! Yeah, I know many would say that it’s cliche, lame or whatever to copy a fictional character in a movie, but those people are wrong (but oddly, I wouldn’t really wear a modern Sub with a tux for whatever reason).

I have a Calatrava, but I couldn't resist the glossy gilt.

Nothing. Or a Submariner if you’re an alcoholic psychopathic murderer named Bond.

If you have to ask....

Seriously though, if you wear any watch with confidence, who cares what's "right or wrong"?And furthermore, who gets to say what's right or wrong when it comes to this?

Gentlemen don't wear a watch when wearing a tux. Wearing a sport watch with a tux would get quite a few chuckles from those in the know.

Maybe this post should be moved to the general forum, where what watch you wear with what outfit, (and framed in front of what steering wheel) seem to matter.
