Should You Match Your Watch To Your Clothes – Or Your Clothes To Your Watch?

My name is Sid Mashburn. I’m not a freak about watches like I am about clothes … but I like them a lot. My dad collected early American clocks and had his workshop on the other side of the carport, so I’ve been around timepieces my entire life. Compared with him, my collection is pretty tight – I’ve got just three watches in the rotation. An everyday watch (Rolex Explorer ref. 1016 from the ’80s), a crossover watch (a Tudor Prince from the 1960s with a handmade camel suede strap), and a dressy watch (an early ’70s gold Zenith, usually with a navy NATO strap.) So it’s kind of a spartan selection but covers a lot of ground. In the bullpen, I have a couple of old Heuer Chronos, an Omega, and a Zenith pocket watch. But between the first three, I can go almost everywhere. Read more at Hodinkee.
