    2 things about this video:
    1- my turtleneck is too thick for this suit. I grabbed the wrong one to shoot the talking part of this video. That makes my jacket look too small for me. SUIT MISTAKE!
    2- not being political with the thumbnail. President Trump’s ties are just always too long :)

    So Alex
    There are a few things wrong with this suit :
    First off, the shoulders are not the right size, the sleeves should be a centimeter or two lower, the bottom of the jacket should also be fairly lower.
    I work with menswear ,tailoring specifically and overall this looks more like a Zara fit than a classic and timeless suit.
    Do consider going a size up on the jacket

      I think the fit conforms to the latest styles. Everything looks a size too small. Jackets too tight and too short. Pants so tight you need stretchy material and too short like we're expecting a flood. Hard to find a comfortable relaxed fit. I hate the look and it's not a new look. This look was tried in the sixties and gave way to the funky seventies.

Either way, if you do a google search you will see that his style is current and has been for at least 20+ years. I assume we are not from the same social circle because you cannot see the class therefore you do not have it. Class is not just looks, but demeanor as well and you are not a nice person based on your comment.

      I would like to address something if you don’t mind. I worded the social circles point incorrectly. That was not meant to be rude or say that I am better than you. I could have said we are from different areas with different styles, etc. (you know what I mean?). As for class, that was a sh**ty thing to say and I am sorry.

    1) A lot of investment bankers, ala Goldman Sachs, wear digital/Timex watch with their suits; 2) Wear suit that fit your body; 3) Although people go for tieless look, Hermes/Ferragamo tie help to define the look.

      Perfect advice. The "little black dress," is a requirement for women, but men wearing black should be headed for a funeral. Every man looks good in navy blue.

    You saved me from wearing a smart watch with a suit😂😂 Good tip on the tightness if you sit down with it button the suit may rip because you’re applying too much force to it and it will be uncomfortable while if you sit with it unbuttoned it will be comfortable and save the it from ripping because while you sit the suit wraps around you if you unbutton it it won’t do that.

    Another mistake: buying an expensive suit (Hugo Boss or Armani for example) when you only wear a suit 5 times a year or less. I bought my most recent suit from Zara, which isn't amazing quality, but good enough for how often I intend to use it

      Buy quality movements nothing worse than a $500 fashion watch with a 10 dollar quartz movement no blingy watches or techno ones with a suit. Chronograph ok if its analogue and you're an engineer.
      Doesn't have to be a Lange and Sonne, Rolex, Piget,or Paneri but no fakes!
      Ball,Steinhart,Orient,Seiko,laco,Sinn,Hamilton or other mid horological pieces, swiss,German,or japanese. Preferably analogue and mechanical if you can afford it.
      Probably the best dress watch value is the Orient bambino. In house automatic mechanical movement with many styles and colors starting at around $100 or the seiko 5 line, literally 100s to choose from all analogue day date automatics with see through movement screw down case backs.
