Sorry, I should have explained that, but yes, you are correct. Various nicknames have evolved for bezel colours, for instance a blue top half and black bottom half is a "Batman".Quote:

A bit too dressy even for work and a 3 piece suit, but would go very nicely with a dinner suit for the one black tie event I am likely to go to per decade! :lol:
One should never wear a bracelet watch with a dinner jacket - only one with a black leather strap is de rigeur. ;)
That's a much better looking watch than the one that went for £1600.Quote:

Well, I always observe “no brown in town” but I wasn’t aware of the black wrist watch code, hopefully I will remember the next time I get invited to a formal event!
Only brown shoes I ever owned were some desert boots. Didn't get on with them, soles too thin. Might be okay on sand but not on concrete. Sort of the diametric opposite to Nike Air Max.
