Seeing everyone's cool stuff made me want to post something I really like. I bought these shoes off a friend a very long time ago but never really took the time to wear them. Perhaps I grew out of this style but there's something unexplainable that makes me want to take them out then put them away simply to have a look. DO you like them?

I tried 3 different image servers. Maybe it's just China blocking image uploads. Anyways... They are the same in this picture shoes

Wear what you like, its really all just about what you like. I like it, although maybe not the bracelet. Put a NATO on her.

Ironically that's the reason I bought it, I really LOVE rubber bracelets with steel skeleton links. They feel incredible and durable and look sleek without looking too flashy. I can't wear straight steel/silver/gold bracelets.

Nylon (called NATO based on the rings and length and stuff) bands are sexy... Especially on the deepsea omg.

I've had a metal influx recently but I understand what you mean.

Check the movement on it though, is it a quartz?

Yes it is a quartz. I don't pretend to be an expert about watches.. I am just reading the armani site.

I had the same range, $200-300 or so depending on what I found. I found 2 choices, the Mako (XL was an option) or the Bulova Marine Star.

Here's the XL: http://orientwatchusa.com/cem75001b
Its a bit bigger, and my buddy who has the regular Mako (hard to recognize when the band is different btw holy shit) says its not that much. 44.5mm case diameter (or rather the size of the face), so measure your wrist and see if it works better. The only thing is that it has automatic movement, so you'll have to actually wear it or the battery will die.

The bulova website sucks so here's an amazon link for the Diver's of the Marine Star
Blue with day of the week/date
http://www.amazon.com/Bulova-Mens-98C62-Marine-Watch/dp/B0007QMBBS

black with just date
http://www.amazon.com/Bulova-98B131-Marine-Black-Bracelet/dp/B002WJIQG2/ref=sr_1_2?s=watches&ie=UTF8&qid=1344453138&sr=1-2&keywords=bulova marine star

Main differences are the movement, size, bracelet, and the notches in the diver's bezel. The MS is quartz. But there's a ton more models of the MarineStar that aren't divers, so i dunno. Here's the amazon search I used but go and look on your own. The website is nice to look at but hard to link.

Amazon Search

for reference, the Marine star is 40mm, Mako 41mm, xl 44.5mm.

The only thing is that both of them are Japanese movements, so if you want swiss...

all the orients have one if you order via their website, but amazon has them for 50% off usually. don't buy full retail orients as they almost always have a discount going on.

best of luck, post pictures when you pick one ^^

Well im due to do some clothes shopping (like due for LIFE lol! So I could spend like 200-400 hundred Reais (200ish dollars) in clothes no problem.

I live in Rio de Janeiro, specifically on Barra da Tijuca which is a wealthy neighboorhood.
(heres my sea view)

Heres 2 pics of me wearing suits for my cousins wedding (I currently am with a beard similar to that, only a bit bigger i believe)
[image loading]

I have started going to the gym by atm im with like 105 kilos, so I cant really use really fit stuff without being ridiculous with man boobs and a belly.

And regarding job, I currently work at a university laboratory (specifically PUC-RJ), doing psychological research, ironically it mostly involves rats and doing neuro surgery on the rats, when im inside the lab I need to be wearing a coat, and more often than not gloves.

hope this helps, let the advice flow!

Honestly what I really like, is Asian clothing. Here's some examples of what I really love:

I LOVE this. I just think it looks wicked awesome.

I don't know. I don't know where to get that kind of clothing here in the U.S. I'm horrible at matching clothes. LOL. I literally just wear whatever I want.

D10: woah keep the facial hair (though trim), looks good

assuming prices are the same there in dollar as in the US... well. how do you want to dress? more professional, or touch up the casual, or what? Look around and find pictures that fit into your own style of how you want to dress.

james needs to update the op with something about the differences between style and fashion... should have voted yes on the name change.

OpTiKAiTech:
define "asian" clothing? the first one is just a really weird blazer. the second you can find in the US too! its just a button up short sleeve that fits a bit better. the third one maybe you won't see around as often (referring the the shawl sweater) but that's because it's kinda odd.

you're supposed to wear what you want! its supposed to be fun! you can find the second ezpz at pacsun (for the fitted look), macy's will have blazers, and look around at more "urban" stores like urban outfitters and you're bound to find something like the flowy sweater in the third.
