YES!!! This photo should have been taken overlooking the Grand Canal however...

**milwatch126** · 16th October 2016, 18:16

Yes, Sorry to burst a bubble but in Saudi Arabia with not as much as a cold one or Vespa😃

**mycroft** · 16th October 2016, 18:31

Yep, my case rests...definitely an old man's watch... :)

**Oysterman** · 16th October 2016, 18:43

Well I like it, super cool although a pair of Sebago dock sides would have been better or Crocs .........

**Qatar-wol** · 16th October 2016, 19:58

The shoes make me wince, but I'd wear the watch all day, every day.

**dejjl** · 16th October 2016, 20:03

I love the watch, I like the shoes, but no socks! Come on man, get a grip.

**01101001** · 16th October 2016, 20:06

I am not sure I would sell my socks to buy a watch.

Yeah.....reminds me of the 80s when the no socks fashion was last around.

Vintage NOS Alden shell's, no socks a vintage Day-Date and jeans, what's not to like? Bring back Miami Vice!

**ralphy** · 16th October 2016, 21:26

I do like a DD in gold.

For some, the 'no socks' has never gone out of fashion. ;-)

**soapy** · 16th October 2016, 21:31

Sorry,that's a no and no again from me on everything.

What next disco belts,sovereign rings,cap tees,jacket sleeves above the elbow etc.

**robertb** · 16th October 2016, 21:38

I'm not even 40 and I like it . . . The day you realise there is just no hope for some of us!!

Although I'd have some socks on with those loafers too . . .

Rob

P.S. Love the DD OP

I'm not sure whether the dad jeans are helping to refute any "old man's" stereotyping, either.

But yes — the watch is nice, at least. :)

**Dan95** · 17th October 2016, 00:19

No socks? Shave off the leg hair mate

**Neilw3030** · 17th October 2016, 07:47

Love the watch, very retro but cool. But for heavens sake get some socks !!!!

**chris56** · 17th October 2016, 08:32

As is so often the case, some posts have the opposite effect to the original poster's intentions.

**MartynJC (UK)** · 17th October 2016, 08:58

It's a no from me.

Martyn

**Andyg** · 17th October 2016, 09:03

Love the watch - as for shoes without socks - how about a pair of Tod's Driving Shoes. Icy cool.

But I would warn against getting fashion advice from a bunch of watch nerds on a watch internet forum.

Lovey watch - a true classic.

No socks and slip-ons, the old man's choice - saves bending over.

**UKWatchGuy** · 17th October 2016, 09:48

is that the 36mm version of DD and is that a 'vintage' version i.e. the crystal looks a bit thick like a top hat ?

**Golfpaul** · 17th October 2016, 10:22

Haha I love all the comments about the socks! Throw up some more pictures of the watch, this is a watch forum!

**farmkid** · 17th October 2016, 11:42

The watch looks great- all around the world hipsters know that yellow gold is in fashion at the moment👍

There should be a separate 'hipster' forum on TZ-UK dedicated to fashionistas where we can discuss
the best coffee shops in Hackney and Brooklyn etc etc
-leave the corduroy wearing Seiko dive watch / Casio G shock gangs to discuss their issues elsewhere

**MrGrumpy** · 17th October 2016, 11:51

Do you think that you have hipster tendencies??? Not a nice suggestion I know, but sometimes worrying possibilities have to be faced rather than ignored...

Maybe?

Lot's of daddy types here still in their "insecure box" with wife's and girl friends still picking and buying their clothes for them :-). (Imagine coming down the stairs with no socks on what would the other half or mates think? No socks......... Shock!

I beg to differ by the way, cool as Feck in my books but then again my dress sense is as subjective as yours.

Cheers,

**Neilw3030** · 17th October 2016, 15:54

And these pictures bring me onto my next pet hate. TROUSER LENGTH !! get out the jam as my missus would say

**chris56** · 17th October 2016, 15:58

and as a follow on from my previous post - digging the hole deeper is not the best solution.

most people wear their trousers too long to be fair, if you are going sockless shorter is better

Have you been talking to my Mrs - she looked at my latest clothes shop and said - " perhaps next time it's best if I come with you - you look like a golfer" - a term of great insult in our house.

I wear no socks all day every day unless I am at work - but then again I don't wear shoes either just flipflops.

That watch however is an object of desire that I covet

**charliehowards** · 17th October 2016, 17:16

maybe it makes me an old man... but i like it

**RAJEN** · 17th October 2016, 18:45

Looks fine -the watch and the jenas and the shoes without socks.
Any kind of ensemble is all about being able to carry it off.
No rules but yours and yours only.
Some of the good natured ribbing made me LOL but some was mean.

**verv** · 17th October 2016, 20:05

It's fantastic.
Gold is making a comeback.

**paulrlx** · 17th October 2016, 20:07

Beautiful DayDate! I have quite a soft spot for the 36mm DD, old school bling, and an underrated classic.

**aksing** · 17th October 2016, 21:01

Ha, funny thread, enjoy the good life.
