Pack a Little Class in Your Pocket
Certain accessories naturally express sophistication. These are the items that appeal to readers of GQ and similarly stylish men’s magazines. Men looking to cultivate a dapper, genteel sense of style often decide to go the extra mile, thinking beyond the typical shirt-pants-shoes combination. Pocket squares make for excellent yet subtle accents to a nice jacket, and pocket watches in particular are handy for any formal occasion.
Pocket watch chains should make an even larger statement than the pocket watch itself, as it will be visible at all times. Mix and match gold and silver chains according to other wardrobe choices. Pocket watches are eminently classy, but they are also delicate. As a matter of decorum, they should be kept out of sight unless you’re checking the time or someone asks to admire it.
