Did you guys managed to spot something interesting? I think Mike Tindall is wearing a black face Daytona. And prince William has his midsized Seamaster, but other than that I could not see anything.

Phil is wearing a genuine vintage Sandoz.
I love that William sticks with that Seamaster - he could have virtually anything he wanted, but sticks with the one his mother got him.
David Beckham was wearing his favourite Rolex..erm, I mean Tudor!
Anyone spot what Harry was wearing? Think he has an Exp 2 and Breitling Aerospace
Haha - was wondering what he had on when I saw his mug. Presumed one of his Pateks or Rolex unless contractually obligated to wear a tudorOriginally Posted by WHL1882

Not seen him wear his Ex 2 for a while now
He will probably be wearing his Explorer, as he will need it tonight for when he goes Spelunking in Meghan’s cave.

If Beckham was wearing the new Tudor Pepsi gmt would anyone cancel their order for one!
There'll be a bloke wearing a Damasko DA37 carousing around the taverns of Durham City shortly. If you see him be sure to buy him a pint . . .
F.T.F.A.
Posh looked pretty fed up for a change... 😉😀
I always think the same, true class.
What wedding?

Brilliant!He will probably be wearing his Explorer, as he will need it tonight for when he goes Spelunking in Meghan’s cave.
I understand that she's looking forward to getting her hands on his Royal OakHe will probably be wearing his Explorer, as he will need it tonight for when he goes Spelunking in Meghan’s cave.
The Vicar (or whatever he was) who did the ceremony was wearing a Rolex, old datejust maybe.
Saw some old chap in the area near the ceremony with an older Submariner on.
And she was dressed in black....very strange for herPosh looked pretty fed up for a change...

The wedding was pretty formal ceremony, we agree no? Plenty people were wearing sports watches on metal bracelet. Who said that on formal occasions you are supposed to wear a dress watch on leather strap?
And vice versa with the black bay
Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
As best I can tell, there were some very well-dressed gents wearing entirely wrong 'sports' watches. It isn't a good look.
Do you include Mike Tindalls Daytona in this ? I thought it looked pretty good for the occasion, if a little small.
Oh come on! No-one?
Not true - he’s on the list at a dozen AD’s for a SS Sports Rolex.
He’s apparently been told he’s still 18 months away and the rotters are keeping his warranty card!
I wouldn't wear a Daytona to a wedding; you might as well wear a zip-up leather jacket. A simple , slim, three-handed would do the job far better. A sports watch just catches the eye in the wrong way.
Disagree with that one Pete, a Daytona looks just fine. In fact I think they look even better with a sharp suit.
At a Royal Wedding? It's not exactly Goodwood. I wouldn't wear a watch with a metal bracelet to a posh , formal event.
Although, come to think of it, I never get invited. So it's academic.
Which Royal got married?,must have missed this whilst at work.
It’s just snobbery. If it’s good enough for Mike Tindall it’s good enough for me.
HRH Prince of Wales wore a chronograph. That’s the thing about rules; you have to know when they cease to apply.
Some great replies on this thread.

Interesting thread here :)
As suspected, I have not missed anything.

Seems need for a dress watch is just in the minds of people here.
Posh people at a posh event don’t care.
Orf with their heads!
It's not about rules....it's about taste. Something like a Daytona looks crap with formal wear. Just shiny and intrusive. Anything with a shiny, heavy bracelet looks out of place.That's why you don't wear it. Nothing to do with rules. It's obtrusive jewellery in a setting where that doesn't 'work.'
And all the talk about Harry ignores the fact that he was wearing military uniform, not a suit.
I think you'l find the women had more sense, and didn't wear the chunky watches many of them own. They have more visual awareness.

I believe George Clooney attended. Any sign of a Tresor? He is a classy guy so could probably carry off a Speedmaster, but I just hope he brought his own wedding watch out for the occasion.
He seemed to be wearing a simple watch with a leather strap, as best I could tell. But, on the sartorial front, he might have been the only man there without a waistcoat. But then his wife was the star ....
I don’t think anyone cares except us watch nerds!
He is a seriously cool guy. And smart enough to realise that days like this are not about him, and more for the ladies attending, at all levels.

Loved the headline in 2014

Which goes to show that the days of only wearing a traditional 3-handed dress watch are gone. Chronographs and sports Rolex are all fine nowadays. Like it or not, traditions and tastes change.
Slight diversion..... Were you invited, what would you wear?
I think I'd wear my 37mm quartz Grand Seiko on it's leather.

I'd go commando.

From what I've seen it's only the hoi polloi that actually worry about such things. The toffs and well off types tend to wear just what they please and not worry about it.
Henry and Rachel... Keep up
According to that deployant article Beckham wore a pocket watch on a gold chain, he must be one of our conservative forum members here.....
