I say just dress for the occasion man..it's true that SG's heat is a big deterrent when it comes to "dressing up". Special occasions aside, I very much prefer the simple tee and jeans/berms if it's just to jalan and gai gai.

Perhaps that's also why dress watches get quite little wrist time from me.

That's why I don't buy Hahaha
A speedy can be a solid dress watch too
A rolex sub also can.

all the best in your job hunt! may you secure the best one for yourself! :s12:

Thanks! I'm still young, still can afford to go out and 磨练 a bit, just need to eat more bread, send more resumes.

looking sharp, bro MrSenG!

once you get the job, do you still need to continue wearing a sharp suit like bro Thai_Rak_Thai? :)

Yes, but the jacket will only be worn for meetings or presentations. I kind of prefer the rolled-up sleeve look, can show more skin, maybe help in finding a partner. :s13:

Personally, one of the reason I haven't really looked at dress watches is because of the leather strap. Leather strap does not go well with moisture, especially when sweating outdoors in Singapore's heat.

The roll up sleeve look is "let's get down to work look."

rubber lined leather straps on deployant clasps could be a solution:
- minimize moisture transfer to leather strap, and also
- minimize stress on pin hole that will eventually lead to the strap cracking at that stress point.

unfortunately, design/colour/size of rubber lined leather straps are rather limited.

well said, well said. :)

the cretan who spends vulgar amounts on crass couture and go around boasting about it remains just that - a cretan. :s13:

class is achieved through cultivation, self-reflection, discernment & measured restraint. :)

certainly not through boasting, flaunting and being an empty vessel. ;)
