How do you dress up your Fiddy?

I am waiting for my DSN Fiddy and try to decide what straps to order. It is not that hard to find great looking straps, unless you want it to be a ( very big) dress watch.

Is it possible to make the Fiddy a dress watch if you want? A nice gator strap might do the trick.

It will be hard to fit it under the cuff of a shirt, but I will try if I can find the right strap :D

It is tough to get the "larger" style watches uder the cuff of a dress shirt... don't have that problem with any of my "dressy casual attire" but with my dress shirts and suits... I run into that...

That's the biggest problem I have with both the 127 and 217. They don't fit under your dress shirt and give you that "lopsided" appearance.

When I run into this problem, I simply leave the cuffs of my shirt unbuttoned. If that look is too casual, your only real option is to have some shirts tailored with the cuffs big enough to fit over the watch. I don't really see another option....

Nah, I use a Radiomir as a dress watch, not a 47mm. :wink:

I have run into this problem with other big watches under button-down shirts, though. Luckily, my workplace is business casual, so I just unbutton the cuffs. 8)

For a fiddy or other with gold hands... i like the slight shiny black strap with gold stitching... I think that really dresses it up a bit. But still a somewhat vintage look to it..
