I actually don't have a huge issue with the red buttons, but I don't like that there's so visible a ticket pocket on the left side (our left, the model's right) of the suit. You could wear it and it wouldn't be the end of the world, but I wouldn't, it's unnecessary. I'm all for taking fashion risks, but the reward (usually in the form a mental/confidence boost of feeling like an alpha peacock) just isn't there for me on this one.

Too casual. There's also something off with the overall look--maybe it's just the model who looks completely dorky. I think it's just way too many accessory-type elements that are distracting, the buttons, the pockets, the color contrast etc. I'd also stick to more conservative shoes. Keep shopping.

IMO, It will not make a difference. I cannot remember ever really noticing anything about a the suit a kid I interviewed was wearing. I only ever remember noticing a very high end tie or watch. Which was always a plus in my book since I share an interest in these things.

Speaking of higher end watches, I tried on a Bell & Ross the other day, that thing weights like 2 lbs. Way to big for my skinny wrist, although it is a very nice watch.

Yeah, I usually don't suggest people on this board get them, unless they bring it up. I have 2 non-metal straps which help with the weight (rubber and custom python). They only downside is that is doesn't fit properly with all shirt cuffs. The good news is it feels indestructible. I love it, but it's not for everyone.
