Which of my 50 watches should I wear to San Francisco opera?

Serious answers only, please! Violators will be reported. With "white tie" formal ensemble, which of my 50 watches are appropriate? Here is a sample of ten: 1. $12,500 Vacheron Constantin "Patrimony XL", 2.$12,100 Cartier "Tank L.C.", 3. $10,700 Cartier "Santos Dumont", 4.$14,200 Breguet "5157", 5.$15,000 Patek Philippe "5120", 6.$9600 Jaeger-LeCoultre "Reverso G.T.", 7.$28,200 Breguet "Marine", 8.$21,000 Audemars Piguet "Royal Oak", 9.$38,300 Blancpain "4246F", 10.$55,900 Breguet "5257"! All are 18 kt. gold. Most have leather straps, but #7 has a gold bracelet. An old tradition says one should not wear a watch with the most formal clothing, but many men ignore that now.|||Wear the one you like best. It is a watch nobody is going to notice or be impressed by what you paid for it.|||If you really had all those watches, you'd be way more sophisticated than to be even posting on Yahoo Answers, let alone asking any of us peons here to be helping you with your fashion questions. Ask some of your fellow high-class consumers for advice.



Also, you would be smarter than to post a fashion question in the travel section.



If you're so concerned about being proper, then why are you willing to flout convention be wearing a watch with formal clothing? This country is really going to the dogs....|||Wear all 50 and walk thru the tenderloin, and get a real san Francisco experience.|||I hate materialistic people who would be dumb enough to spend that much on a watch.

As far as old tradition, wearing a fob with tailcoats in the Victorian Age was the fashion and continued until the 1920s. This era saw the emergence of wrist watches, the first popular early watches were produced by Waltham. As a new piece of fashion, the wrist watch had immense popularity and fobs were put in the closet to be worn only on special occasions. At no time was the wearing of a watch seen to be in bad taste as they were generally not on display unless a gentleman drew his sleeve back to glance at the time. Some took that action as rude being an indication that one was wishing to leave.

We can thank Dick Tracy for securing a status position for the wrist watch as he was often seen scrutinizing his timepiece while collecting evidence in comic books and later in animations. The next big boost for the wrist watch came when batteries were introduced and relieved the need to remember to wind your timepiece. Then came waterproof wrist watches, allowing casual wear without fear of damage. Finally, the digital era made these time pieces affordable for anyone.
