Watch with a tuxedo?
I have an upcoming black tie event and I know traditionally you don't wear a watch with a tux. I have a cartier santos that is pretty dressy (pic below), curious if you think this would look odd with a classic black tux. Ideally I'd have a dress watch on black calf or alligator leather but for now I just have it on stainless or a brown calf leather strap.

Personally, do think it would feel off. Agree with the initial point that it is a best practice to not wear a watch at all. If you do, wouldn’t wear one with a bracelet even if the Santos wears more formally than other options.
I agree with the above. The watch looks to be a bit too big for Black Tie. Traditional Black tie would call for no watch, but if you want to wear one I would recommened something a bit smaller and understated, maybe a JLC ultra master thin with a black strap and white dial.
No.
